Behavior2/5

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

With no annotations, the description should disclose behavioral traits beyond the schema. It only says 'Get suggested profiles,' offering no details on read-only nature, auth requirements, rate limits, or output format. The minimal description fails to inform the agent of important behaviors.

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

Conciseness3/5

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

The description is highly concise with a single sentence, which is efficient. However, it sacrifices clarity and completeness for brevity. It is front-loaded but lacks the structure to convey necessary details.

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 the context of similar sibling tools and three parameters, the description is incomplete. It does not clarify how suggestions are generated or what 'related to a profile' entails. The existence of an output schema does not excuse the lack of semantic clarity in the description.

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

Parameters2/5

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

Schema description coverage is 0%, so the tool description must compensate by explaining parameters. It does not mention what 'target', 'expand_suggestion', or 'limit' mean. The parameter names are somewhat self-explanatory, but the description adds no value beyond them.

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

Purpose3/5

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

The description states 'Get suggested profiles related to a profile,' which gives a clear verb and resource. However, it is vague about what 'related to' means and does not distinguish this from sibling tools like search_profile_followers or get_followers_page. The purpose is adequate but lacks specificity.

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 on when to use this tool versus alternatives. There is no mention of use cases, prerequisites, or contexts where this tool is preferred over others, leaving the agent to guess.

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