B3.4/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true, and destructiveHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds modest context by specifying that the response includes season details and an episode listicket, and by revealing the REST path. It does not mention authentication, rate limits, or pagination, but for a simple read-only operation with an output schema this is not a major omission.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

The description is compact and well-structured: a one-sentence purpose, the endpoint path, and a terse argument list. It contains no filler and front-loads the key intent. It could be slightly more narrative in explaining parameter behavior, but overall it earns its place.

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

Completeness3/5

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

With an output schema available and annotations covering the read-only nature, the core operational details are present: the resource, path structure, and required arguments. The main gaps are the lack of usage guidance and the thin explanation of the language parameter. It is minimally viable for invocation but not fully self-sufficient.

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

Parameters3/5

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

Schema description coverage is 0%, so the description needed to compensate for the bare property titles. It names all three parameters and classifies tv_id and season_id as path parameters and language as a query parameter—detail the schema itself does not provide. However, it does not explain language value formats, optionality behavior, or any constraints beyond what the schema's default already hints at.

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

Purpose5/5

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

The description opens with a clear verb-object statement ('Get season details and episode list') that names both the resource and the returned content. It is directly distinguishable from siblings like get_tv_by_tv_id and get_tv_by_tv_id_recommendations because it explicitly targets a season within a TV show. This is a specific, non-tautological statement of purpose.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

The description provides no guidance about when to use this endpoint rather than the many sibling TV-related endpoints. It does not mention alternatives, exclusions, or the context in which a language parameter should be provided. The agent is left to infer usage solely from the tool name.

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