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

With no annotations, the description carries the behavioral disclosure burden. It discloses that this creates an account-scoped resource, that certain IDs are prerequisite values, and that a follow-up call to connect_identity is required. It does not fully disclose response behavior or error cases, but the key side effects and dependencies are transparent.

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 three tight sentences: primary action, prerequisites, and required follow-up. It is front-loaded with the main purpose and contains no filler.

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?

The description captures the essential creation flow and dependencies, which is the minimum needed to invoke the tool. However, with no output schema and no annotation safety info, it leaves gaps around the return value, how to identify the created listing for connect_identity, and the semantics of the remaining parameters.

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 description coverage is 0%, so the description must compensate. It does add meaning for category_id and region_id by requiring them to come from search_categories/search_regions, but it does not explain roles, one_liner, or collab_interest. An agent must infer those meanings from names and enum values.

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 core action: 'Create a new listing (company profile) under this account.' This is a specific verb with a specific resource and scope, and it is distinct from the sibling read/search/list tools.

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 gives explicit usage sequencing: category_id and region_id must first come from search_categories/search_regions, and connect_identity must be called after creation. This tells an agent exactly how to use the tool correctly relative to its dependencies.

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