Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It only states the action ('Get') without details on permissions required, rate limits, error handling, or response format. For a tool with two required parameters and no output schema, this is a significant gap in transparency about how the tool behaves beyond its basic function.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

The description is a single, efficient sentence with no wasted words. It's front-loaded with the core action, though it could be more structured by explicitly mentioning parameters. However, its brevity is appropriate given the lack of additional context needed for clarity.

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 tool's complexity (2 required parameters, no annotations, no output schema), the description is incomplete. It doesn't explain what 'webhook_name' means, how results are returned, or any behavioral traits like error conditions. Without annotations or output schema, the description should provide more context to guide effective use, but it falls short.

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%, meaning parameters 'domain_name' and 'webhook_name' are undocumented in the schema. The description adds minimal value by implying these parameters are used to filter 'by type', but it doesn't explain what 'webhook_name' represents (e.g., a specific webhook identifier, a type name) or provide examples. It fails to compensate for the low schema coverage.

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 'Get domain webhooks by type' states a clear verb ('Get') and resource ('domain webhooks'), but it's vague about what 'by type' means. It doesn't specify whether it retrieves a single webhook, multiple webhooks filtered by type, or metadata about webhook types. Compared to siblings like 'get--v3-domains-domain-webhooks' (likely lists all webhooks) and 'put--v3-domains-domain_name-webhooks-webhook_name' (updates a specific webhook), it lacks clear differentiation.

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?

The description provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. It doesn't mention prerequisites (e.g., needing a valid domain_name and webhook_name), contrast with sibling tools (e.g., 'get--v3-domains-domain-webhooks' for listing all webhooks), or specify use cases. This leaves the agent guessing about appropriate contexts.

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