get_brand_protection_url_info

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries the full behavioral disclosure burden. It only says 'Get brand protection URL info' and does not disclose whether the operation is read-only, what response shape to expect, whether pagination applies, or what happens with invalid or non-protected URLs. The verb implies a read but that is not enough.

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

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

The description is short and front-loaded, but it is under-specified rather than efficiently informative. It repeats the tool name and does not earn its place by adding any operational context beyond the title.

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

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

For a tool with no annotations, no output schema, and only a terse description, important context is missing: what the returned 'info' represents, how account_id and url relate, and when this tool should be chosen over the similar brand protection siblings. The large sibling list makes the ambiguity more costly.

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

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

Schema description coverage is 100%, with url described as 'URL to check' and account_id as 'The account ID'. The description adds no parameter-level meaning beyond the schema, so the baseline of 3 is appropriate.

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

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

The description is essentially a human-readable restatement of the tool name and gives no detail on what 'URL info' actually contains or returns. It identifies a get operation on a brand protection URL resource, but does not meaningfully distinguish it from the sibling get_brand_protection_domain_info beyond the URL/domain wording.

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

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

There is no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as get_brand_protection_domain_info, list_brand_protection_alerts, or list_brand_protection_queries. The description provides no context about prerequisites, intended call scenarios, or exclusions.

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