faceit_getTournamentBrackets

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

No annotations provided. Description mentions endpoint, parameters, and return type but lacks details on authentication requirements, rate limits, error handling, or whether the operation is read-only.

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?

Efficient structure: purpose, usage hint, endpoint, parameters, returns. No redundant sentences, but could be more compact. Front-loaded with the main action.

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?

Covers basic information for a simple tool (1 param, no output schema). Missing details on response format (e.g., whether it includes all stages, pagination), but adequate for minimal viability.

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 has no parameter descriptions (0% coverage), but description adds 'tournament_id (path, str, required): The id of the tournament', providing type, location, and necessity 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 clearly states 'Retrieve brackets of a tournament' and explains that it fetches 'bracket structure (stages, matches, seeds)', which distinguishes it from sibling tools like faceit_getTournament or faceit_getTournamentMatches.

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?

No guidance on when to use this tool vs. alternatives among many tournament-related siblings (e.g., faceit_getTournament, faceit_getTournamentMatches). Only says 'Use to fetch the bracket structure' without explicit context or exclusions.

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