chatgpt_circuit_breaker_status

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden. It clearly discloses read-only behavior, local scope, and that it does not access the ChatGPT webpage. It could add detail about return values or error behavior, but the core safety-relevant behavior is transparent.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

A single compact sentence states the action, scope, and an important exclusion. Every phrase adds value, and the most important 'read-only local' information is front-loaded.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a zero-parameter read-only status tool with no output schema, the description adequately identifies what is read and what is deliberately avoided. It does not specify the exact return shape, but the simplicity of the tool makes this a minor gap rather than a critical omission.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

The tool has zero parameters and the input schema is fully covered by its empty properties definition. The description appropriately adds no parameter detail because none is needed.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description uses a specific verb '读取' (read) and names the concrete resources: local safety circuit breaker and unconfirmed generation task status. It also explicitly states it does not access the ChatGPT webpage, which helps distinguish it from web-facing siblings.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The description conveys when the tool is relevant: when you need local breaker/task status without touching the web. However, it does not explicitly name alternatives or list conditions for choosing this tool over siblings like chatgpt_status or chatgpt_network_diagnostics.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
