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

With no annotations provided, the description must fully disclose behavior. It states the tool returns a bounded section, but does not clarify whether it reads an entire file (potentially blocking), whether it's safe to call repeatedly, or if it updates in real-time. The term 'bounded' is ambiguous. The tool likely has low destructiveness (a read operation), but the description fails to confirm this, leaving important behavioral aspects opaque.

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 short sentence that directly states the core purpose. It is concise and front-loaded with the key action. However, it could be more efficient by removing 'bounded' if not clarifying, but overall it wastes no words. The lack of further explanation is acceptable given the tool's simplicity.

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 tool's low complexity (1 parameter with default, output schema exists, 5 sibling tools that are unrelated), the description is somewhat adequate but incomplete. It tells the agent what to expect (log section) but not how to interpret the output (since output schema is present, this is okay), nor any constraints (e.g., maximum lines). The missing piece is specification of what 'bounded' means and whether the tool requires server access. A more detailed example or note about log freshness would improve completeness.

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% (the input schema only has a 'lines' parameter with a default of 200). The description does not mention the parameter at all, meaning it provides no additive semantics beyond what the schema already states (type integer, default 200). However, the default value in the schema gives some guidance, and the tool is simple with only one parameter, so the lack of param description is noticeable but not catastrophic. Baseline for low coverage is 2-3; since the schema structure is clear and output schema exists, a 3 is appropriate.

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 states the tool returns the newest bounded section of Paper's latest.log. It specifies the verb 'return' and the resource 'newest bounded section of Paper's latest.log', which distinguishes it from sibling tools like minecraft_command or skript_check_file. However, the phrase 'bounded section' is somewhat vague, lacking clarity on what exactly is bounded (lines or time range), which could confuse an agent.

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 versus alternatives. It does not mention that it only returns tail-end log entries, nor does it explain when one might prefer skript_check_file or minecraft_command instead. There is no mention of prerequisites or context (e.g., needing to be on the server), leaving the agent without usage rules.

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