hostodo_get_deployment

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

Despite no annotations, the description clearly states the tool is a stub ('does not perform the requested action yet') and returns a 'coming_soon response'. It also warns not to send secrets. This is transparent about its behavioral limitations.

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 short (three sentences) but the first sentence is misleading. Leading with 'Coming soon (deploy): Inspect...' suggests functionality that doesn't exist. A more front-loaded disclosure that it's a stub would improve structure.

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 the tool is a stub with no output schema, the description adequately conveys that it does nothing and warns about secrets. It is clear enough for an AI agent to recognize it should not be used for real deployments.

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?

All four parameters have descriptions in the schema (100% coverage), so the description does not need to add more. It adds no additional semantic information, but is adequate given the high schema coverage.

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 starts with 'Inspect deployment status and logs', suggesting it performs an action, but then immediately contradicts that by stating it's a stub that returns a 'coming_soon response' and does not perform the requested action. This confusion lowers clarity.

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 is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives. The only advisory is 'Do not send secrets', which is a security warning, not usage context. With many sibling tools, explicit when-to-use instructions are missing.

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