getBandwidthCtrlDetail

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and destructiveHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds a little value by saying which configuration sub-areas are returned, but says nothing about behavior when bandwidth control is unconfigured, what happens with the default site fallback, or the response shape.

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 well-formed sentence with the resource and contents front-loaded and no filler. It is efficient, though it could have used the remaining space for a usage cue instead of stopping at the payload list.

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 zero-required-parameter, single-parameter read-only getter with no output schema, the description covers purpose and returned content adequately. The only real omission is guidance on how this differs from the sibling gateway configuration getters.

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?

With a single parameter and 100% schema description coverage, the schema already documents siteId fully, including the OMADA_SITE_ID fallback and the pointer to listSites. The description only restates that the lookup is site-scoped, adding no syntax or format detail beyond the schema.

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 gateway bandwidth control detail settings") plus the scope ("for a site") and the payload contents ("per-IP and per-SSID bandwidth limits"). It is clearly distinguishable from the many other gateway getters, though it never names a sibling it contrasts with.

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?

Usage is only implied: the agent can infer it reads existing bandwidth-control configuration, but there is no statement of when to choose it over e.g. getGatewayQosClassRules or getSitesGatewaysGeneralConfig, and no mention of prerequisites or when the settings may be empty.

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