es_browse_gazette

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, openWorldHint, idempotentHint, and destructiveHint, covering the safety profile. The description adds the date scoping but no additional behavioral traits like pagination, limits, or error conditions. It is consistent with annotations and does not contradict them.

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 a single, front-loaded sentence with no filler or repetition. Every word contributes to the purpose, making it highly concise and efficiently structured.

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 simple listing tool with one parameter and an output schema, the description is complete. It specifies what is listed (documents in the BOE gazette) and the condition (on a date), while the output schema and annotations cover return structure and safety. No additional explanation is needed.

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 fully describes the single 'date' parameter with format and example, so schema coverage is 100%. The description adds no new semantic detail beyond referencing 'on a date', which aligns with the parameter but does not enhance or clarify further. Baseline of 3 is appropriate.

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 verb 'List' and the resource 'documents published in the official BOE gazette on a date', making the scope and action unambiguous. It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like es_get_act or es_search_tax_rulings by focusing on browsing all documents for a given date.

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 usage (browse documents by date) but does not explicitly state when to use this tool over siblings or provide exclusions. There is no mention of alternatives, such as 'use es_get_act to retrieve a specific document'. The context is clear but not explicit about decision boundaries.

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