app_store_versions__get

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

Annotations clearly indicate readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, and destructiveHint, so the safety profile is well-covered. The description adds the HTTP method and endpoint but no additional behavioral details (e.g., permissions, response size, rate limits).

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?

The description is a single, focused sentence with no redundant information. It is appropriately concise, though the endpoint reference could be considered extraneous for an AI agent.

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 the simplicity of the tool (2 params, no output schema) and strong annotations, the description provides the core purpose but lacks context on return value structure or when to use the 'include' parameter beyond the schema enum.

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?

Schema descriptions cover both parameters at 100% ('Resource identifier.', 'comma-separated list of relationships to include'). The description adds no further meaning, so it meets the baseline for full schema coverage.

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 explicitly states 'Read one App Store version by ID', clearly identifying the action (read) and resource (App Store version). While it distinguishes from sibling CRUD tools (list, create, delete, update), it does not differentiate from other get tools for nested resources.

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?

No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like app_store_versions__list (for multiple versions) or nested getters. No context on prerequisites or limitations.

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