v2.0.0Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
There are no annotations, so the description carries the full burden. It indicates a read-only retrieval operation and that the result is paired data, but it does not go beyond that to mention behavior around the 'all' topic value, result limits, or error handling. This is adequate but thin for a tool with no annotation support.
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, front-loaded sentence with the verb first and no filler. Every word contributes to conveying the tool's specific purpose.
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?
For a simple one-parameter tool with full schema coverage and no output schema, the description gives enough functional understanding. The result shape is only described as 'matched pairs,' which is sufficient, though slightly more detail about the 'all' option would make it fully complete.
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%; the single parameter is fully documented with examples and the 'all' sentinel. The tool description adds no additional parameter-level meaning, so the baseline of 3 applies.
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 uses a specific verb ('Retrieves') and names the exact resource: matched pairs of Old Testament Messianic Prophecies and their New Testament fulfillments. This is a distinct function that clearly separates it from siblings like get_cross_references or search_topic, and it is not a tautology.
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 intended use is implied through the purpose statement, but there is no explicit guidance on when to choose this tool over alternatives like get_cross_references or find_thematic_scripture_chain. No exclusions or when-not-to-use conditions are provided, so guidance exists only by inference.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
