Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It only states the basic operation without disclosing response format, error handling, rate limits, or any side effects. The verb 'Get' implies a read-only action, but this is already evident from the tool name and adds no behavioral context beyond that.
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, succinct sentence with no redundant or tangential information. It effectively communicates the core purpose without wasted words.
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 no output schema and no annotations, the description is too terse to fully inform the agent about what 'details and players' includes, such as player ratings, match status, or board results. It also fails to explain how this tool relates to sibling match tools, leaving the agent without enough context to select correctly.
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 100% for the single parameter 'matchId,' so the baseline is 3. The description adds slight context by indicating the match is a 'Daily team match,' but it does not materially enhance understanding of the parameter beyond the schema's 'Team match ID'.
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 tool retrieves details and players for a Chess.com Daily team match, using a specific verb ('Get') and resource ('details and players for a Chess.com Daily team match'). It distinguishes from siblings by specifying 'Daily' and emphasizing 'players,' which is not explicitly covered by board-level or live-match tools.
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 no guidance on when to use this tool over its siblings, such as get_live_team_match or get_team_match_board. It does not mention alternatives, exclusions, or conditions like whether the match must be completed or ongoing.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
