Generate Privacy Policy

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

With no annotations, the description carries the burden and it discloses key traits: free 25-line preview, documentId, and one-time $9.99 license with no subscription. It also signals an external dependency on privacypage.io. This covers cost, output, and unlock mechanism, though it omits failure/rate-limit behavior.

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 purposeful sentences with the action first, then return/pricing info, then a guidance note. No redundant phrasing or padding.

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?

The description covers what the call returns (preview + documentId), the payment condition, and the source of field values. Given the rich schema and the absence of an output schema, this is nearly complete; it does not mention how documentId connects to get_full_document, but that can be inferred from the sibling tool.

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%, so the schema already documents all 8 properties, including enums and examples. The description adds only a generic instruction to fill fields from known app context, which is useful but does not materially deepen parameter semantics beyond 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?

Description states a specific action ('Generate') and resource ('GDPR/CCPA/COPPA-aware privacy policy'), plus the service used (privacypage.io). This clearly differentiates from siblings like generate_terms_of_service or generate_cookie_policy, which target different legal documents.

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?

It implies use when the app/website needs a privacy policy and advises filling fields from known app details, but never names alternatives or says when not to use. The sibling tools are not referenced, so an agent must infer the decision from the tool name alone.

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