get_growth_data

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

With no annotations, the description should disclose behavioral traits like data source, update frequency, or limitations. It only mentions quarterly data range (quarter 1..4), which is minimal and insufficient for full transparency.

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 very short (one sentence) and includes a Chinese translation. It is concise, though it could be slightly more structured to separate purpose from field listing.

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?

Given three parameters and no output schema, the description is incomplete. It fails to explain the input parameters (code, year, quarter) and the meaning of the return fields (e.g., YOYEquity). A more complete description would include parameter details and data semantics.

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 0%, so description must compensate. It clarifies the 'quarter' parameter with 'quarter 1..4' but does not explain 'code' or 'year'. It lists return fields, not parameters, so it adds only marginal value.

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 it provides quarterly growth data (季频成长能力) and lists the specific fields returned. The verb is implied, and it distinguishes from sibling tools focused on other financial data like balance, profit, or cash flow.

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 is given on when to use this tool versus alternatives or any prerequisites. The description lacks context for the agent to decide when to invoke get_growth_data over other data tools.

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