get_equity_securities

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

No annotations provided. Description does not mention read-only nature, data freshness, permissions, or any side effects. Minimal behavioral context beyond the name 'get'.

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?

Concise description with clear section for arguments. No unnecessary text. Efficient.

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?

Covers purpose and parameters adequately. However, lacks information about the return format or any response structure. With no output schema, a brief note on what to expect in the result would be helpful.

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?

Description fully explains each parameter: corp_code (required, format), bgn_de and end_de (date range). Schema has no descriptions, so the free-text Args section is essential and well done.

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?

Clearly states it retrieves equity securities registration statement main info, including stock issuance and public offering. Distinguishes from sibling tools like get_equity_securities_acquisition by focusing on the registration statement itself.

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 tool versus other equity securities tools. Does not mention any prerequisites or exclusion criteria. With many siblings, explicit usage context would help.

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