NameRequiredDescriptionDefault

urlNoTarget URL (only type=url)
ignoreCacheNoWhether to ignore cache on reload.

initScriptNoA JavaScript script to be executed on each new document before any other scripts for the next navigation.
timeoutNoMaximum wait time in milliseconds. If set to 0, the default timeout will be used.
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations indicate readOnlyHint=false, so mutation is expected. The description adds the project URL fallback context but does not detail other behaviors like page load waiting or dialog handling that could be important.

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

Conciseness5/5

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

The description is extremely concise: one sentence plus a helpful note. Every word is informative with no redundancy.

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

Completeness4/5

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

Given 6 parameters and no output schema, the description covers the core function and key behavior (fallback). Though it doesn't explain every param, schema descriptions fill that gap. It's adequately complete for a navigation tool.

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

Parameters4/5

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

Schema covers all parameters with descriptions (100% coverage). The description adds meaning to the url parameter by specifying the project URL fallback, which is not in schema.

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

Purpose5/5

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

The description clearly states the tool navigates to a URL, back, forward, or reload, with a fallback to project URL. This distinguishes it from sibling tools like click or hover which are for interaction, not navigation.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

The description implies when to use (for direct navigation commands) and mentions the project URL fallback. However, it doesn't explicitly contrast with clicking links or handling dialogs, which could be alternatives.

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