v0.1.0Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
The readOnlyHint=true annotation already establishes this is a safe read, so the description's main added value is the 'authenticated' scoping, which implies auth is required and no user id is passed. It says nothing about what identity fields come back or what happens if the token is invalid.
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?
A single front-loaded sentence with no filler. Every word carries information.
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 parameterless read with annotations covering the safety profile, this is nearly sufficient, but the ambiguity against x_get_user and x_get_active_account is unresolved and no return-shape hint is given (there is no output schema).
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?
Zero parameters, so there is nothing for the description to clarify; baseline 4 applies. The description correctly implies the user is derived from the authenticated session rather than passed in.
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 and resource ('get the authenticated X user'), which is meaningful against siblings like x_get_user and x_get_active_account. However, it does not explicitly distinguish itself from those overlapping siblings, so the reader must infer the difference.
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 on when to use this versus x_get_user or x_get_active_account, both of which plausibly return user data. The agent is left to infer the distinction from the word 'authenticated' alone.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
