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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries full responsibility for behavioral disclosure. It mentions using a 'real search API' and 'intelligent search', but lacks details on rate limits, pagination, result count, historical range, or any side effects. This vagueness leaves agents uncertain about important behavioral traits.

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 concise sentence in Chinese that effectively communicates the main purpose and capability. It is front-loaded and contains no redundant information, earning its place efficiently.

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 tool has only one parameter and no output schema, the description provides adequate context about what it does and the data source. However, it lacks information about return format, result limits, or when not to use it, leaving some gaps for a search tool.

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 single required parameter 'query' has a detailed description in the schema with examples and explanation of keyword usage. The tool description adds value by specifying the API source ('real search API') and the media type ('mainstream financial media'), complementing the schema's coverage.

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 that the tool retrieves news content from mainstream financial media via a real search API, supporting single or multiple keyword searches. This is specific and distinct from sibling tools like hot_news_7x24 (real-time hot news) and basic_info (basic information), making its purpose unambiguous.

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 for keyword-based search of financial news but does not explicitly state when to use it versus alternatives like hot_news_7x24 for real-time news or other tools. No exclusions or prerequisites are mentioned, so guidance is only implicit.

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