C2.6/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

With no annotations, the description must disclose behavioral traits. It only states 'send a notification,' implying a write operation but omitting details like authentication, rate limits, idempotency, or side effects. The agent cannot assess risk or constraints.

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

Conciseness3/5

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

The description is very concise (one sentence), but it is under-specified. While brevity is valued, the lack of detail on parameters or behavior makes it minimally helpful. The sentence structure is clear but insufficient.

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

Completeness1/5

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

Given the absence of annotations, output schema, and parameter descriptions, the tool is incomplete. The description does not cover return values, error conditions, or behavioral constraints, leaving the agent with critical gaps.

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

Parameters1/5

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

The description does not explain the parameters (title, message). Since schema description coverage is 0%, the agent has no guidance on how to fill in title and message, or what their expected formats or lengths are.

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

Purpose5/5

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

The description clearly states the action (send), the resource (notification), and the target (Gotify). It is specific and unambiguous, distinguishing the tool's purpose even without sibling tools.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

The description provides no guidance on when to use or avoid this tool. There are no explicit context triggers, prerequisites, or alternatives mentioned, leaving the agent to infer usage from the name alone.

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

Scored across 1 tool

Disambiguation5/5

Only one tool exists, so there is no possibility of confusion between tools.

Naming Consistency5/5

With a single tool, naming is trivially consistent.

Tool Count3/5

One tool is minimal for a notification service; it may be sufficient for sending-only but feels thin for a general-purpose server.

Completeness2/5

The server only supports sending notifications, lacking any retrieval, deletion, or management operations that are typical for a notification system.
