Get Sampling Simplified Markets

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

With no annotations, the description must fully disclose behavior, but it only notes randomness. It omits pagination (despite the `next_cursor` parameter), return format, the meaning of 'simplified,' and any side effects or requirements.

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 a single, direct sentence with no filler or redundant wording. It is appropriately front-loaded but slightly under-specified, missing key details that would be valuable in the same concise format.

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 tool appears to be a simple paginated list, but the description does not explain pagination, result count, or the 'simplified' concept. With no output schema and no annotations, the description is insufficient for an agent to fully understand the tool's behavior and edge cases.

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 schema provides no description for `next_cursor`, and the description does not mention it either. With 0% schema description coverage, the description fails entirely to clarify the cursor's role in pagination or any other parameter behavior.

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 action and resource: 'Get a random sample of simplified markets.' It identifies a distinct resource ('simplified markets') but does not explicitly contrast with the sibling tool `get_sampling_markets`, so it does not fully differentiate.

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 versus alternatives like `get_sampling_markets` or `query_markets`. There is no mention of context, exclusions, or preferred scenarios.

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