Behavior2/5

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It mentions semantic search and returns relevance scores, but fails to describe key traits like whether this is a read-only operation, potential rate limits, authentication needs, or how results are ordered. This leaves significant gaps in understanding the tool's behavior.

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 well-structured and front-loaded with the core purpose, followed by clear sections for Args and Returns. Every sentence adds value without redundancy, making it efficient and easy to parse for an AI agent.

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 the tool's moderate complexity (2 parameters, semantic search), no annotations, and an output schema present (which handles return values), the description is reasonably complete. It covers the purpose, parameters, and return type, though it lacks behavioral context like error handling or performance considerations, which holds it back from a perfect score.

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 schema description coverage is 0%, so the description must compensate. It adds meaningful context for both parameters: 'query' is described as 'Search query text' and 'limit' as 'Maximum number of results to return (default: 10),' which clarifies their purposes beyond the bare schema. However, it doesn't detail constraints like query length or limit ranges.

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's purpose as 'Search blog posts using semantic search,' which is a specific verb+resource combination. However, it doesn't explicitly differentiate this semantic search capability from potential sibling tools like 'fetch' or 'list_posts,' which might offer different search methods or scopes.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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 like 'fetch' or 'list_posts.' It lacks any context about prerequisites, such as whether blog posts need to be indexed or if authentication is required, leaving the agent with no usage differentiation.

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