get_queue_autoactions

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

readOnlyHint=true already tells the agent this is a safe read, so the description carries a lower burden. It nevertheless adds nothing beyond that: no indication of scope, ordering, result size, or whether access restrictions apply to the target queue.

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?

One short, front-loaded sentence with no wasted clauses. It is arguably too terse for the disambiguation it needs, but nothing in it is 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?

For a single-parameter read tool with an annotation and full schema coverage, the description is minimally adequate. With no output schema, it could usefully note that the result is a collection of autoactions and how it relates to get_queue_autoaction, which it omits.

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 coverage is 100% and queueId is documented as 'Queue key or id', so the schema does the heavy lifting. The description adds no meaning beyond the parameter name and the single required argument.

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?

States a specific verb (List) and resource (autoactions configured in a queue), which is clear on its own. However, it does not differentiate itself from the near-identical sibling get_queue_autoaction (singular) or create_queue_autoaction, leaving the plural/singular distinction to inference.

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 no when-to-use guidance, no prerequisites, and never names an alternative tool such as get_queue_autoaction. An agent must guess whether this is the list view or the single-item view.

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