Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries full burden for behavioral disclosure. It only says 'Retrieve structures' without mentioning whether it requires authentication, rate limits, data freshness, or the scope of structures returned (e.g., player-owned, orbital, all).

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is a single sentence that is front-loaded with the verb and resource. There is no extraneous information, making it very concise and easy to parse.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness2/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Given no parameters, annotations, or output schema, the description is the sole source of context. It fails to specify what 'structures' refers to (e.g., all structures in the universe, only those visible to the character), leaving significant ambiguity. A more complete description would clarify the scope and return format.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

The tool has zero parameters and the input schema coverage is 100% (empty). The description adds no parameter information, but baseline is 4 for zero-parameter tools. It does not need to elaborate further, though it could clarify that no filters are available.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states the action (Retrieve) and resource (structures) from the EVE Online universe, distinguishing it from the singular 'get_structure' sibling. However, it could be more specific about whether it returns all structures or a filtered list, and 'EVE Online universe' is somewhat vague.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

No guidance is provided about when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'get_structure' (singular) or other retrieval tools. There is no mention of prerequisites, context, or scenarios where this tool is appropriate.

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