mail_listWebhookDeliveryLogsV1

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

With no annotations, the description carries full burden. It mentions pagination and filtering by mailbox, implying read-only behavior, but does not explicitly state it's non-destructive or discuss behavior for invalid orderId, rate limits, or response structure beyond the mentioned fields.

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?

Two concise sentences with no redundancy. All information is front-loaded and relevant, earning each word's place.

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?

Given no output schema and many sibling tools, the description covers pagination, filtering, and key fields but lacks details on the exact response structure, error handling, or how to interpret the logs. It is adequate but not comprehensive.

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% with descriptions for all 4 parameters. The description adds context: 'paginated' for page/per_page, 'for the given mail order' for orderId, and 'filtering by mailbox' for mailbox_id, enhancing the schema's meaning.

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 clearly states the tool retrieves a paginated list of webhook delivery logs for a mail order, mentioning key fields (delivery outcome, duration, retry counts). This distinguishes it from other mail list tools like mail_listAccessLogsV1 or mail_listWebhooksV1, though not explicitly contrasting them.

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 alternatives. With many sibling tools for logs and webhooks, the description lacks directions on when to prefer this over, e.g., mail_listInboundLogsV1 or mail_listWebhooksV1.

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