C2.6/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

No annotations exist, so the description bears the full disclosure burden, and it discloses almost nothing. It doesn't say whether the result is scoped by marketplace/reseller, whether it's paginated, or what a returned service entry contains — only an implicit read-only behavior from the verb 'get'.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

One short clause, front-loaded with the deciding information and no filler. It is efficient, though the leading name repetition does little work.

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

Completeness2/5

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

For a lookup tool with no output schema and no annotations, the description should at least indicate what comes back (service identifiers, names, pricing?) and whether results are filtered by reseller or marketplace. Without that, the agent cannot judge whether this or a sibling tool answers its question.

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

Parameters3/5

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

There is a single parameter (parentAccountId) with 100% schema description coverage, so the schema already documents it and the baseline is 3. The description adds no meaning about what the parent account ID implies or how it constrains the result set.

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

Purpose3/5

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

The description adds a small clarification over the title — the services in question are ones a parent account can subscribe to — but it is essentially a restatement of the name. It never distinguishes this tool from the adjacent sibling get_possible_services_for_upgrade, so an agent must infer the difference from names alone.

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?

There is no statement of when to call this versus get_possible_services_for_upgrade, get_available_services_for_marketplace, or list_marketplace_services, all of which sound closely related. No prerequisites or exclusions are given.

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