browser_console_get

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

No annotations are provided. The description adds context about the temporal scope ('since browser_console_start'), but it does not disclose whether logs are cleared after retrieval or any other behavioral traits such as persistence or size limits.

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 concise, consisting of a single sentence that front-loads the main action and includes a cross-reference to browser_docs. There is no wasted text.

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 low complexity (one optional parameter, no required), the description covers the essential purpose and usage. However, it lacks details about the return format (since no output schema exists) and does not mention any limitations, which would be beneficial for an agent.

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 provides full coverage (100%) for the single optional parameter 'filter', including a description and enum values. The tool description does not add any additional semantics beyond what the schema already provides, so the baseline score 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 clearly states the verb 'Get' and the resource 'all captured console logs since browser_console_start was called'. It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like browser_console_start and browser_console_clear by specifying the temporal scope.

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?

The description explicitly mentions the prerequisite of calling browser_console_start and references browser_docs for further details. It implies when to use it (after starting console capture) but does not explicitly state when not to use it.

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