get_team_for_account

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

With no annotations, the description correctly implies a read-only lookup operation. No hidden side effects are indicated, which is acceptable for a simple retrieval tool. However, it could disclose more about permissions or error cases.

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, front-loaded sentence that conveys the core action efficiently. Every word is necessary, and there is no extraneous content.

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 lookup with one parameter, the description captures the essence. However, without an output schema, mentioning what the response contains (e.g., team ID, team name) would improve completeness.

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 description adds no meaning beyond the schema; 'account_id' is already described as 'The ad account ID' in the schema. The description merely restates the concept without clarifying format, constraints, or usage.

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 'Look up which team owns a given ad account' clearly states the verb (look up), resource (team ownership for an ad account), and distinguishes it from siblings like 'get_team' (team details) and 'list_teams' (all teams). The mapping from account to team is unique.

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?

No when-to-use or when-not-to-use guidance is provided. There are no alternatives mentioned, and the description does not help an agent decide between this and other tools like 'get_team' for retrieving team details.

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