Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description still discloses useful behavior: deduplication by book/passage, the role of set_id in redoing a set, and the instruction to submit only current answers. It does not cover read-only safety, permissions, return format, or filtering behavior, leaving meaningful gaps for a tool with no annotation support.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
