• get_recommended_jobsB
  3.1/5.0
  Behavior2/5

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

  No annotations provided, so description must disclose behavior. It only mentions the action and return type, omitting any side effects, authentication needs, or rate limits. Minimal compared to the burden.

  Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

  Conciseness4/5

  Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

  Extremely concise (one line plus return type). No wasted words, but could benefit from a brief sentence on usage context.

  Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

  Completeness3/5

  Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

  Sufficient for a zero-parameter tool with output schema, but lacks any behavioral or usage context (e.g., what 'recommended' means, if results are sorted). Adequate but could be more helpful.

  Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

  Parameters4/5

  Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

  Input schema has zero parameters, so baseline is 4. Description does not need to add parameter info; it correctly notes return type which is partially redundant with output schema but acceptable.

  Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

  Purpose4/5

  Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

  Clearly states it retrieves personalized recommended jobs from LinkedIn, but does not explicitly differentiate from siblings like search_jobs, which could also be personalized. The verb 'get' and resource 'recommended jobs' are specific.

  Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

  Usage Guidelines2/5

  Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

  No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives (e.g., search_jobs, get_job_details). The description only states what it does without context for selection.

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

• search_jobsB
  3.3/5.0
  Behavior2/5

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

  No annotations are provided, and the description does not disclose behavioral traits such as idempotency, rate limits, authorization requirements, or whether it modifies data. The only behavioral hint is that it is a search (likely read-only), but this is implied rather than explicit.

  Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

  Conciseness5/5

  Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

  The description is extremely concise: a single sentence followed by a structured Args and Returns section. Every part is necessary and there is no redundant information. It efficiently conveys what the tool does and how to use it.

  Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

  Completeness3/5

  Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

  Given the tool's simplicity (one parameter, no nested objects) and the presence of an output schema, the description is adequate but lacks details such as pagination, result limits, or query operators. It covers the basics but leaves some behavioral context unspecified.

  Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

  Parameters3/5

  Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

  The single parameter 'search_term' is described as 'Search term to use for the job search', which adds basic meaning beyond the schema's property name. However, with 0% schema description coverage, the description only restates the obvious without adding constraints, formatting, or examples.

  Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

  Purpose5/5

  Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

  The description clearly states the tool's purpose: 'Search for jobs on LinkedIn using a search term.' This provides a specific verb (search) and resource (jobs), and distinguishes it from siblings like 'get_job_details' and 'get_recommended_jobs' which have different functions.

  Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

  Usage Guidelines2/5

  Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

  The description offers no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'get_recommended_jobs' or 'get_job_details'. There are no conditions, prerequisites, or exclusions mentioned, leaving the agent without contextual decision support.

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

• get_company_profileA
  3.9/5.0
  Behavior3/5

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

  Description mentions that setting get_employees to true is 'slower', disclosing a behavioral trait. No annotations exist, so the description carries full burden. It does not cover error handling, rate limits, or data freshness, but the core behavior is clear.

  Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

  Conciseness4/5

  Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

  The description is concise and well-structured with a brief summary followed by Args/Returns docstring. It uses only necessary text, though the docstring format adds slight verbosity.

  Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

  Completeness4/5

  Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

  Given the tool's simplicity (2 params, output schema present), the description covers the key aspects: purpose, parameter meanings, return type, and a performance hint. Missing guidance on error cases or prerequisites, but adequate for the complexity.

  Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

  Parameters4/5

  Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

  The input schema has no descriptions (0% coverage), but the description adds meaningful semantics: company_name is clarified as a LinkedIn company name with examples, and get_employees is explained as controlling employee scraping with a performance note.

  Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

  Purpose5/5

  Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

  The description clearly states 'Get a specific company's LinkedIn profile' with examples like 'docker', 'anthropic', 'microsoft'. It distinguishes from sibling tools like get_person_profile and search_jobs by specifying company focus.

  Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

  Usage Guidelines3/5

  Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

  The description does not provide explicit when-to-use or when-not-to-use guidance relative to siblings, though the purpose is clear. It includes parameter details but lacks contextual triggers or alternative tool references.

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

• get_person_profileA
  3.9/5.0
  Behavior3/5

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

  Basic read operation described, but lacks disclosure of rate limits, authentication requirements, or error handling. Without annotations, description carries the burden but provides minimal behavioral context.

  Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

  Conciseness5/5

  Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

  Extremely concise with front-loaded purpose, clear Args/Returns sections, and no unnecessary words.

  Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

  Completeness5/5

  Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

  For a simple one-parameter tool with an output schema, the description fully explains the parameter and return type, making it complete.

  Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

  Parameters4/5

  Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

  Description adds example and clarifies the parameter format (LinkedIn username), which adds meaning beyond the schema's simple 'string' type.

  Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

  Purpose5/5

  Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

  Clearly states it retrieves a specific person's LinkedIn profile. Differentiates from siblings which deal with companies, jobs, sessions, or searches.

  Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

  Usage Guidelines2/5

  Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

  No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. No mention of context or prerequisites.

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

• close_sessionA
  4.1/5.0
  Behavior3/5

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

  No annotations are provided, so the description must disclose behavioral traits. It mentions resource cleanup but does not specify irreversibility, side effects (e.g., cookies cleared), or error conditions.

  Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

  Conciseness5/5

  Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

  The description is one short sentence that conveys the essential purpose without extraneous words. It is appropriately front-loaded and efficient.

  Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

  Completeness5/5

  Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

  For a tool with zero parameters and an output schema, the description adequately explains the action and cleanup. No further context is necessary.

  Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

  Parameters4/5

  Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

  There are no parameters, so schema coverage is 100%. The description does not need to add parameter detail; the baseline of 4 is appropriate.

  Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

  Purpose5/5

  Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

  The description clearly states the action ('Close') and the resource ('current browser session') with additional context ('clean up resources'). It is distinct from sibling tools which are all retrieval operations.

  Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

  Usage Guidelines3/5

  Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

  No explicit guidance on when to use versus alternatives. The use case is implied (ending a session), but no 'when not to use' or prerequisite information is given.

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

• get_job_detailsA
  4.3/5.0
  Behavior4/5

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

  The description discloses that the job description may be empty if content is protected, which is a valuable behavioral trait. However, it does not mention authentication requirements, rate limits, or potential side effects. Since no annotations are provided, the description carries the full burden; it covers the most important behavioral nuance well.

  Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

  Conciseness5/5

  Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

  The description is concise, with a clear heading and structured Args/Returns sections. Every sentence adds value: the purpose, parameter explanation, examples, and return structure. There is no fluff or redundancy.

  Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

  Completeness5/5

  Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

  The tool has one parameter and an output schema (context signals indicate has_output_schema=true). The description explains the return structure (title, company, location, etc.) and notes the edge case of empty job description. For a simple retrieval tool, this covers all necessary context, leaving no obvious gaps.

  Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

  Parameters4/5

  Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

  The input schema has no description for job_id (0% coverage). The description compensates by providing examples ('e.g., '4252026496', '3856789012''), which adds meaning and clarifies the format beyond the schema's bare type declaration. This helps the agent understand what a valid job ID looks like.

  Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

  Purpose5/5

  Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

  The description clearly states the action ('Get job details') and the resource ('a specific job posting on LinkedIn'). It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like search_jobs and get_company_profile by focusing on a single posting via a job ID. The verb-resource pair is specific and unambiguous.

  Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

  Usage Guidelines3/5

  Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

  The description implies that this tool is used when you have a specific job ID, but it does not explicitly state when to use it versus alternatives like search_jobs or get_company_profile. There is no guidance on prerequisites or when not to use it, leaving the agent to infer usage context.

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