SECO Monatsbericht-URL generieren

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, destructiveHint=false, and idempotentHint=true, so the safety profile is clear. The description adds that the tool also verifies availability (a behavioral trait beyond read-only URL generation), which provides useful context beyond the annotations.

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?

Two concise sentences followed by a short paragraph. The main purpose is front-loaded in the first sentence. Every sentence adds value with no fluff.

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 the tool's simplicity and the presence of an output schema (not shown but indicated), the description sufficiently explains the tool's function. It covers the purpose, the construction logic, and the verification step, making it complete for an agent to understand when and how to invoke it.

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?

The input schema has 100% description coverage with clear constraints (year range, month range, language pattern). The description adds the context that the tool constructs a URL for a specific month/year and verifies availability, going beyond the schema's parameter descriptions.

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 the tool generates and validates a URL for SECO's monthly labor market press report. It specifies the exact resource (monthly press report PDF URL) and verb (generate and validate), and is distinct from sibling tools that handle datasets or job seekers.

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?

The description implies the tool is for constructing URLs for specific months/years and verifying availability, but it does not explicitly state when to use it versus sibling tools like seco_get_dataset or seco_get_unemployment_overview. No exclusionary guidance is provided.

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