Behavior2/5

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

The description does not contradict the readOnly annotation, but it adds no context about side effects, limitations, or special behaviors. With the annotation present, the bar is lower, but the description still offers minimal insight beyond the tool's name.

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

Conciseness3/5

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

The description is a single, concise sentence with no fluff, but it is too brief to be informative. It is appropriately sized in terms of length, but the lack of content reduces its effectiveness.

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

Completeness1/5

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

Given the tool has two parameters and an output schema, the description is severely incomplete. It does not explain expected inputs, outputs, or any relevant context, making it insufficient for a user to understand the tool's full capabilities.

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

Parameters1/5

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

The description gives no explanation of the parameters user_prompt and app_name. Schema coverage is 0%, and the description fails to compensate with any param-level detail, leaving the user to guess their meaning.

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 clearly states the tool generates a JSON schema in OpenAPI format, which is a specific action and outcome. It differentiates from sibling tools focused on search and scraping, but could be more specific about the schema's intended use.

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

Usage Guidelines1/5

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

The description provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, nor any conditions or prerequisites. It lacks explicit when-to-use or when-not-to-use information.

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