get_extension_monitoring_config

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

The description indicates a read operation without side effects, but does not mention any additional behavioral traits such as authentication requirements or rate limits. Since annotations are absent, the description carries the full burden, but it only states 'Get details' which is minimally transparent.

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, clear sentence of 12 words with no unnecessary information. It is front-loaded and efficient.

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 absence of an output schema and the presence of many sibling tools, the description is minimal. It does not explain what the 'details' contain, which could be useful for an AI agent. However, for a simple get operation, it may be sufficient.

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?

Schema coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents both parameters (extensionName and configurationId). The description adds context by specifying 'monitoring configuration for an Extension 2.0', but does not add meaning beyond what the schema provides.

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 uses the verb 'Get' and specifies the resource 'details of a specific monitoring configuration for an Extension 2.0'. It distinguishes from sibling tools like list_extension_monitoring_configs and other get_* tools by focusing on a single configuration.

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?

No explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives (e.g., when to use list_extension_monitoring_configs first). The description implies use when you have a specific configurationId, but does not state prerequisites or exclusions.

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