list_customers

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries the burden of behavioral disclosure. It correctly indicates the tool returns a list with pagination, search, and sorting, but it does not disclose details such as default pagination limits, whether search is exact or fuzzy, or what the response structure includes (e.g., total counts).

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 that efficiently conveys the core functionality. It is front-loaded and contains no superfluous information.

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 lack of an output schema, the description should ideally hint at the response structure (e.g., array of customer objects with pagination metadata). It also omits details about search behavior (partial match, case sensitivity) and error handling. Overall, it is adequate but leaves gaps.

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 all parameters already having descriptions. The description adds no additional semantic value beyond summarizing the capabilities (pagination, search, sorting). Baseline score of 3 is appropriate.

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 tool's purpose with a specific verb ('Ambil daftar' = get list) and resource ('customer'), and distinguishes it from sibling list tools by naming 'customer'. It also mentions key capabilities: pagination, search, and sorting.

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 implies usage when a filtered, sorted list of customers is needed but does not provide explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'get_customer' (single customer) or other list tools. No exclusions or prerequisites are stated.

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