formulae: Get race

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint and openWorldHint, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds the useful detail that the response contains sessions, circuit and schedule, but says nothing about pagination, error behavior, or how the optional fields projection affects output.

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?

Two short sentences with zero filler, the purpose front-loaded and the id prerequisite second. Every clause earns its place.

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?

With no output schema, the description partially compensates by naming the returned sections, and the id source is clear. For a simple two-parameter read tool this is nearly sufficient, though it could note the fields projection's effect on the response.

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 coverage is 100%, so both parameters are already documented in the schema, and the schema's race_id description mirrors the description's wording. The description adds no meaning beyond the schema and never mentions the optional fields projection parameter.

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?

States a specific verb (Get) and resource (a single Formula E race), and enumerates the payload contents (sessions, circuit, schedule). It implicitly distinguishes itself from the list-oriented formulae_get_races, but does not explicitly differentiate from close siblings like formulae_get_race_results.

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?

It tells the agent where the required id comes from (formulae_get_races), which is useful prerequisite guidance. However, it gives no when-to-use/when-not guidance relative to alternatives such as formulae_get_race_results, so usage must be inferred from the name alone.

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