retrieve_all_extension_settings

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

No annotations exist. Description does not disclose behavioral traits like read-only nature, potential performance impact, or rate limits. For a retrieval tool, at minimum should imply it's a safe read operation.

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?

Single sentence that clearly states the purpose with no unnecessary words. Front-loaded and 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?

Tool has 1 parameter and no output schema. Description does not specify return format or what settings contain. Adequate for a simple retrieval but misses opportunity to set expectations.

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% for the single param 'space_id'. Description adds no extra meaning beyond 'Numeric ID of the space', so baseline score 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?

Description uses precise verb 'Retrieve' and specifies resource 'settings for all extensions installed in a space'. It distinguishes from sibling tools like 'retrieve_extension_settings' (singular) and 'retrieve_all_extensions' (list extensions).

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 vs alternatives such as 'retrieve_extension_settings' for a single extension. No prerequisites or context provided.

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