get_alphafold_structure

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

Description mentions return of 'structure confidence and download links', providing basic behavioral context. However, no annotations exist, and description does not disclose read-only nature, rate limits, or data size. Adequate for a simple retrieval but missing depth.

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?

Single sentence, 10 words, front-loaded with verb and resource. No extraneous information. Extremely concise and to the point.

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 tool with one parameter and no output schema or annotations, the description covers input and output sufficiently. Could mention format or async behavior, but completeness is high given simplicity.

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% with a clear parameter description. The description's 'by UniProt ID' adds no new meaning beyond the schema. Baseline 3 applies as schema does full documentation.

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?

Clearly states verb 'Get', resource 'AlphaFold AI-predicted protein structure', and input method 'by UniProt ID'. Distinguishes from siblings like 'search_alphafold' which searches rather than retrieves a specific structure.

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 usage guidance provided. Does not specify when to use this tool versus siblings like 'search_alphafold' or 'get_pdb_structure'. Implicit usage only.

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