TDQS

C2.9/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full disclosure burden, yet it says nothing about authorization requirements, pagination, result ordering, limits, or what happens with an empty property. It only implies a read/aggregate operation, which is the minimum an agent could guess from the name.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

A single front-loaded sentence with no filler; the parenthetical clarification earns its place. It is efficient but perhaps too terse given the tool's 7-parameter surface.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness2/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a 7-parameter tool with a nested free-form 'filters' object, a raw Umami 'dataType' code, no annotations, and no output schema, the description is far too thin. An agent gets no help on filter key naming, timestamp semantics, or the shape of the returned counts.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 100% with all 7 parameters documented, so the baseline is 3. The description reinforces that the aggregation is scoped by 'website' and 'specific property', but adds no syntax or semantics for filters, dataType, or eventName beyond what the schema already states.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

States a specific verb and resource ('Get event data values') and disambiguates the payload with a parenthetical ('aggregated counts for a specific property'), which is more informative than the name alone. However, it never distinguishes itself from close siblings like get_event_values, get_event_data_properties, get_event_data_fields, or get_session_data_values, so the agent still has to guess which one to pick.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

There is no statement of when to use this tool versus the many adjacent event-data tools, and no prerequisites or exclusions. The only implicit signal is 'aggregated counts', which a reader must infer selects this over the raw-listing siblings.

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