get_clip_links

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden of disclosing behavior. It only adds 'expanded operation,' which is vague and gives no details about return values, side effects, permissions, or whether the operation is read-only.

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?

While the description is only one sentence, it is under-specified rather than concise. It provides no substantive information and functions as a mere label, missing the opportunity to convey useful details in a compact form.

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?

The description is almost entirely uninformative. It lacks any details about the operation's behavior, inputs, outputs, or use cases, making it inadequate for an agent to select or invoke the tool correctly, especially given the large number of sibling tools.

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?

The tool has no parameters, so the description is not required to explain parameter semantics. The schema already indicates an empty object, and the baseline for 0 parameters is 4. However, the description adds no contextual meaning beyond the schema.

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 'Premiere Pro expanded operation: get clip links' merely restates the tool name with an unhelpful prefix. It does not explain what 'clip links' are or what the tool actually does, nor does it distinguish it from sibling tools.

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 or how it differs from alternatives. No usage context, prerequisites, or exclusions are mentioned, leaving the agent without direction.

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