get_profit_data

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

With no annotations provided, the description does not disclose behavioral traits such as read-only nature, authentication needs, or rate limits. It only implies data retrieval but does not explicitly state safety or side effects.

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 brief, using two sentences to convey purpose and key fields. It front-loads the main idea, with no unnecessary words. Could potentially include a bit more detail without harming conciseness.

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 no output schema and sparse annotations, the description lacks completeness: it does not describe the return structure beyond field names, does not explain optional parameters' behavior (e.g., if omitted returns all years/quarters), and assumes domain knowledge.

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 the description must compensate. It adds minimal value: clarifies that quarter ranges 1..4, but does not explain the 'code' parameter (likely stock code format) or the 'year' parameter's expected format or range.

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 indicates it returns quarterly profitability data, listing specific fields. It distinguishes itself from sibling financial data tools by specifying 'Quarterly profitability' and the included metrics, though it could be more explicit about the resource (stock code).

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 tool versus alternatives like get_balance_data or get_cash_flow_data. The description lacks any usage context, exclusions, or references to sibling tools.

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