qlikcloud_health

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

The description discloses what the tool reports (tenant, identity, roles, session storage, token refresh) and clarifies permission context (runs with user's own permissions, no elevated access). It does not explicitly mention side effects, but for a health check this is likely read-only and the description adequately conveys 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 mostly concise and well-structured, with the primary purpose and usage stated upfront. The final sentence about non-admin identity is somewhat verbose but adds valuable context about permissions, so it is acceptable.

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 provides sufficient context for a no-parameter health check: it explains what the tool does, when to run it, and what information it returns. It does not detail error handling or output schema, but these are not essential for this simple 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?

The tool has zero parameters, so the baseline score of 4 applies. The description adds no parameter-specific information, but none is needed given the absence of parameters.

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's purpose: to check the connection and report which Qlik Cloud account is in use. It uses a specific verb ('Check') and identifies the resource (connection/account), making the tool's function unmistakable.

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 gives explicit guidance on when to use the tool ('Run this first when anything looks wrong'), which is useful for an agent. It does not explicitly contrast with sibling tools, but the use case is sufficiently clear.

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