zabbix_listar_alertas

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

No annotations are provided, so the description must carry the full behavioral burden. It does not state that this is a read-only listing operation, how pagination behaves, whether results are filtered by default, or what permissions are required. The single vague sentence provides essentially no behavioral context.

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 short but poorly structured: it begins with the artifact '51.' and uses an undefined phrase 'conforme o escopo selecionado'. Brevity is achieved through omission rather than useful front-loading. The result is not concise in an informative sense.

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?

Although an output schema exists and need not be explained, the description still leaves key input semantics and usage context unexplained. It provides no guidance on scope, filters, pagination, or sibling alternatives. For a three-parameter listing tool with no annotations and no schema descriptions, this is insufficient.

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 description coverage is 0%, and the description does not explain any of the three parameters (limite, offset, eventid). It also does not clarify what 'escopo' means in relation to this input schema. The parameters are left entirely undocumented semantically.

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 says it will 'consultar problemas e alertas', which broadly restates the tool name rather than specifying a precise operation. It does not distinguish this tool from sibling tools such as zabbix_listar_problemas or zabbix_consultar_eventos. The phrase 'conforme o escopo selecionado' is too vague to clarify purpose.

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?

There is no explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. It does not mention prerequisites, expected scope, or when to choose zabbix_listar_problemas or other event/problem tools instead. The reference to 'escopo selecionado' does not define a usable condition.

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