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

With no annotations provided, the description must fully disclose behavioral traits. It indicates a read operation but does not mention rate limits, authentication needs, pagination, response size, or any side effects. The lack of detail leaves the agent unaware of potential pitfalls like large result sets.

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 sentence of 17 words, conveying all essential information without waste. It is 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?

Given no output schema, the description fails to describe the return format, fields, or pagination. For a tool that could return many registrations, missing information on limits or iterative retrieval makes it incomplete for the agent to use effectively.

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 one parameter 'date' described as 'Date in format YYYY-MM-DD'. The description adds minimal extra meaning beyond the schema, essentially restating the date's purpose. Baseline 3 due to high coverage, no additional semantic value.

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 specifies the verb 'Get', the resource 'all company registrations and publications', the source 'SOGC (Swiss Official Gazette of Commerce)', and the constraint 'for a specific date using the Zefix API'. It distinguishes from sibling tools like 'get_company_publications' which likely target a specific company, not daily data.

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 implicitly states usage for a specific date but provides no explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'advanced_search' or 'get_company_publications'. No exclusions or prerequisites are mentioned.

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