get_network_configuration

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

With no annotations, the description carries full burden. It implies a read-only operation via 'Get', but discloses no other behavioral details such as requiring credentials, what 'configuration' includes, or potential errors. This is a significant gap for a tool with zero annotation coverage.

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 a single, direct sentence with no unnecessary words. Its brevity is appropriate for the tool's simple scope, though it sacrifices explanatory richness.

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 lack of annotations, output schema, and parameter descriptions, this minimal description is insufficient. It does not explain what 'detailed configuration' returns, how to identify the network, or any prerequisites. The tool is simple but still needs more contextual detail.

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 description coverage is 0%, and the description does not explain what 'network_id' represents or how to obtain it. The phrase 'specific network' only hints at the parameter's function without providing meaningful semantic guidance.

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 uses a specific verb ('Get') and resource ('detailed configuration of a specific network'), making its core purpose clear. It distinguishes from sibling list tools (e.g., list_vpc_networks) by emphasizing a single resource's detailed config, but 'network' is somewhat generic without explicitly saying 'VPC network'.

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?

There is no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, no exclusions, and no mention of related tools like list_vpc_networks for obtaining network IDs. The usage context is only implied by the phrase 'specific network'.

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