get_scheduled_tweets

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It only states that it returns a JSON list of scheduled tweets, but does not disclose behavior like what happens when no tweets are scheduled, any authentication requirements, rate limits, or whether it returns tweets of all statuses.

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 very concise with two sentences. It is front-loaded with the purpose and return format. While efficient, it could be slightly more structured but remains clear.

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?

Given the presence of an output schema and no parameters, the description is fairly complete for a simple retrieval tool. However, it lacks context on whether it returns only future scheduled tweets or includes pagination details.

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?

The input schema has zero parameters with 100% coverage, so the description does not need to add parameter information. Baseline 4 applies as there are no parameters to describe.

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 clearly states it retrieves all scheduled tweets, using the specific verb 'get' and resource 'scheduled tweets'. It is distinct from sibling tools like schedule_tweet, delete_scheduled_tweet, and edit_scheduled_tweet.

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?

No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives. There is no mention of when to use this for retrieving scheduled tweets compared to other retrieval tools like get_tweet or get_home_timeline.

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