TDQS

A4.4/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Beyond the annotations, the description adds valuable behavior disclosure: 'Missing fields are unknown, not unrestricted targeting' clarifies the open-world semantics, and 'Paginated' sets pagination expectations. The smartPlus:true note also explains a mode switch that differs from the default classic read, all while remaining consistent with the readOnly/idempotent annotations.

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

Conciseness5/5

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

Three sentences, each carrying distinct information: what is read, the Smart+ special case, and the missing-fields caveat plus pagination. No filler or repetition of schema details, making it compact and front-loaded.

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

Completeness4/5

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

Given the rich annotations, a full input schema, and an output schema, the description covers the important behavioral notes that are not in structured data. It could additionally mention when to prefer a sibling tool, but the core information an agent needs to invoke the tool correctly is present.

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

Parameters3/5

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

Schema description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents all six parameters, including the smartPlus behavior and defaults. The description mentions smartPlus:true and pagination, but adds little per-parameter meaning beyond what the schema provides, so baseline 3 is appropriate.

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 opens with the specific verb 'Read' and targets a precise resource: 'full native ad group configuration', then enumerating major contents (targeting, audiences, geo, language, age/gender, placements, budget, schedule). This clearly distinguishes the tool from siblings like tiktok_get_ads or tiktok_get_campaigns by identifying exactly which resource is returned.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

The use case is clear: call this when you need the full native ad group configuration, including targeting and budget details. It also gives explicit guidance for Smart+ ad groups via 'Set smartPlus:true', though it does not explicitly mention when not to use it or name sibling alternatives.

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