RetryPushOrders

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

The description discloses that the tool forces a retry, indicating a mutation, but provides no further behavioral details such as authorization needs, rate limits, or side effects. With no annotations, this is insufficient.

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, efficient sentence. However, a minor spelling error ("immediatly") detracts slightly.

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 tool with no parameters and no output schema, the description is minimally adequate. It lacks details about the retry scope or confirmation, but given simplicity, it is acceptable.

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 tool has no parameters, so the description correctly focuses on the action. Baseline is 4 per guidelines; no additional parameter information is needed.

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 retries push orders immediately, using a specific verb and resource. However, it does not explicitly differentiate from sibling tools like HarvestOrder or ChangeOrder.

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 guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as HarvestOrder or ExportOrders. The description implies usage for retrying failed push orders but lacks explicit context.

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