sophos_list_tenant_admins

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and destructiveHint=false. The description adds that this is a partner-level endpoint and lists 'all' administrators, but doesn't describe the return format, pagination behavior, or any other behavioral traits beyond what annotations provide.

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?

Two efficient sentences: first states purpose, second provides alternative. No wasted words and front-loaded with the core action.

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?

Despite the schema covering the parameter, the description omits return value information (no output schema) and does not clarify pagination or list limits, which is critical for a list tool. The existence of a paged sibling raises questions about completeness.

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 coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3. The description adds no additional parameter details beyond what the schema already states; the single parameter tenant_id is fully described in the schema.

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 lists all administrators for a specific managed tenant at the partner level, using a specific verb and resource. It differentiates from tenant-scoped tools but does not explicitly contrast the paged sibling, leaving slight ambiguity about 'all' vs paginated results.

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 provides when-not-to-use guidance by directing to tenant admin tools for common/v1 scope. However, it fails to address the closely related sibling sophos_list_tenant_admins_paged, leaving the agent uncertain when to choose one over the other.

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