uptimerobot_get_account

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, destructiveHint=false and openWorldHint, so the safety profile is fully covered. The description adds only that the payload includes account details plus limits; it says nothing about rate limits, auth failure behavior, or response shape, which is acceptable given the annotation coverage.

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. It is efficient, though it is also the bare minimum and leaves no room for routing guidance.

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 trivial read-only account lookup with full annotation coverage and no output schema, this is nearly sufficient. However, it doesn't hint at what 'limits' means (monitor/plan quotas) or the response structure, leaving a small gap an agent calling it cold would want filled.

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?

There is a single api_key parameter with 100% schema description coverage, so the schema carries parameter documentation. The description adds nothing about key format or scope, which is the expected baseline for a one-param tool.

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 UptimeRobot account details and limits'), so an agent immediately knows what it retrieves. It doesn't explicitly distinguish itself from the sibling uptimerobot_get_monitors, though the resource noun makes the split fairly obvious.

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?

There is no guidance on when to call this versus uptimerobot_get_monitors or any other sibling, and no mention of prerequisites beyond what the schema implies. The agent must infer that this is the 'who am I / what are my plan limits' call.

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