A3.6/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

The annotations already establish read-only, idempotent, non-destructive behavior, while the description adds the generated artifact's abstraction level and Markdown format. It does not clarify the architecture's source or scope, the significance of open-world access, or whether the document is returned rather than persisted.

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 single sentence is front-loaded with the action and includes only useful scope and format information. There is no redundant or unnecessary wording.

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

Completeness3/5

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

The description is sufficient to invoke a simple zero-argument tool, and the output schema removes the need to explain return fields. It still leaves the source and scope of the architecture unclear and provides too little selection context relative to closely related siblings.

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?

The tool has no parameters, so there are no parameter semantics requiring documentation; the zero-parameter baseline applies. Any ambiguity about the analyzed repository or environment is a scope issue rather than missing parameter documentation.

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

Purpose4/5

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

The description gives a specific verb ("Generate"), resource ("high-level architecture overview document"), and format (Markdown). It does not explicitly differentiate the tool from nexus_understand_architecture or the other document-generation siblings.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

"High-level architecture overview" implies that the tool is appropriate when an overview document is wanted. However, there is no explicit when-to-use or when-not guidance, nor routing to nexus_understand_architecture for analysis rather than document generation.

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