get_postmatch_news_by_season_id

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

No annotations are provided, so the description must compensate. It only states the basic purpose without disclosing any behavioral traits (e.g., read-only nature, side effects, pagination behavior, return format). The schema suggests pagination via 'page' and 'per_page', but the description omits this context.

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 sentence, which is concise, but it could be more informative without becoming verbose. Every sentence should earn its place; this sentence is too minimal to be highly effective.

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?

With 7 parameters and no output schema, the description is incomplete. It fails to explain pagination, filtering, includes, selects, locale, or that season_id is required. For a tool with this complexity, the description provides insufficient context for correct invocation.

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 description coverage is 100% with clear parameter descriptions. The tool description adds no additional meaning beyond what the schema already provides, so it meets the baseline of 3.

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 clearly states the verb (Get) and resource (post-match news) with a condition (for a specific season). The name further distinguishes it from 'get_postmatch_news' which likely retrieves without season filter. However, it doesn't explicitly differentiate from siblings like 'get_prematch_news_by_season_id', so it's clear but lacks explicit sibling distinction.

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 provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, such as when to choose this over 'get_postmatch_news' or 'get_prematch_news_by_season_id'. With many sibling tools, explicit usage context is missing.

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