get_prematch_news_by_season_id

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

No annotations provided. Description omits behavioral traits (e.g., destructive hint, authentication, rate limits, pagination behavior). Single sentence does not compensate for missing annotations.

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?

Minimal length but lacks detail. Front-loads verb and resource, but could be restructured to include purpose and usage hints without sacrificing conciseness.

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, description is too sparse. Does not describe return type, pagination implications, or how to interpret the news data. Incomplete for effective use.

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 coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3. Description adds no additional meaning to parameters beyond their schema descriptions. Does not explain how include, select, filters, or locale affect the output.

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 verb 'Get' and resource 'pre-match news' with scope 'for a specific season'. It differentiates from siblings like get_prematch_news (no season filter) and get_postmatch_news_by_season_id (post-match). However, it could clarify what constitutes 'news'.

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 over siblings like get_prematch_news or get_prematch_news_for_upcoming. Lacks context for expected use cases.

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