Get Profile

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the behavioral transparency burden. It clearly states that the tool returns identity information, implying a read-only operation, but it does not explicitly mention response format, error behavior, or side-effect absence. The risk is low for a simple profile getter, and the return content is specified.

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 two sentences with no filler. The core action and content are front-loaded, and the usage note is directly actionable.

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?

Because there is no output schema, the description carries the responsibility of indicating what the tool returns. It lists the main identity fields and provides usage guidance, which is sufficient for this simple tool. Some minor specifics like exact link names or formatting are omitted but not critical.

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 tool has zero parameters, so the description does not need to explain parameter meaning. The baseline of 4 applies because there is no input complexity for the agent to navigate.

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 uses a specific verb ('Returns'), names the exact resource ('Daksh's professional identity'), and enumerates the content: name, title, summary, location, and contact/social links. This clearly differentiates it from sibling tools like list_projects, get_experience, get_skills, and get_github_activity.

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 explicitly instructs to use this tool first for any 'who is this person' question, providing a clear usage context. It does not explicitly state when not to use it or name alternative tools, but the sibling set makes the boundary obvious.

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