v0.1.0Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations present, the description must carry the behavioral burden. 'Get' conveys a read-only single-record retrieval, but there is no disclosure of errors, permissions, or response behavior, and no output schema compensates.
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 six words with no filler; the action and resource are front-loaded. It is as concise as the tool's simplicity allows.
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?
For a simple one-parameter fetch this is minimally adequate, but the absence of annotations, output schema, and any routing to boond_banking_accounts_search leaves the agent without guidance on return shape, error cases, or how to discover a valid ID.
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 0%, so the description must compensate. 'By ID' maps directly to the single required `id` parameter and confirms it is the account identifier, but it adds no format, source, or lookup-detail beyond the schema's property name.
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 states a specific action ('Get') and resource ('banking account'), with the lookup criterion 'by ID'. It clearly identifies what this tool returns, though it does not explicitly contrast itself with the sibling boond_banking_accounts_search.
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 'by ID' phrasing implies this tool is for fetching one known banking account rather than running a search, but it never names boond_banking_accounts_search as the alternative or states when to choose it. Usage context is only implicit.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
