seedance_get_task

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

Describes return fields but doesn't disclose idempotency, error behavior, or rate limits. Without annotations, more behavioral context would be beneficial.

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?

Two sentences plus Args/Returns section is concise and front-loaded. No wasted words, though could be slightly more structured.

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?

Given one parameter and presence of output schema, description covers purpose and key field. Could note status values or error handling, but overall adequate.

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?

Adds meaning to the single required parameter by specifying it's the ID from create_video, which the schema (0% coverage) lacks. Fully compensates for schema gap.

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?

Description clearly states it queries task status, linking to create_video for context. However, it doesn't explicitly differentiate from sibling seedance_wait_task, which may have similar purpose.

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?

Implied usage after create_video, but no explicit when-to-use, when-not-to-use, or alternatives compared to other seedance tools.

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