Execute a tool through the gateway

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

The description does not disclose behavioral traits beyond annotations. It fails to mention side effects, error behavior, or the implications of the openWorldHint and destructiveHint=false annotations. No additional context is provided.

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 brief (two sentences) but includes a technical HTTP path and auth class that may not be relevant for an AI agent. It is concise but could be more structured and front-loaded with essential info.

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 complexity (nested object, 5 sub-parameters, no schema descriptions, output schema present), the description is woefully incomplete. It lacks examples, return value hints, and any contextual framing.

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 description does not explain any parameters. With 0% schema description coverage, this is a critical gap. The agent receives no guidance on the meaning of 'tool', 'parameters', 'timeoutMs', etc.

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 'Execute a tool through the gateway', which clearly indicates the tool's action and resource. It distinguishes from sibling tools that perform other gateway operations (e.g., sessions, tokens) but lacks specificity about what a 'tool' is in this context.

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 over alternatives. It only includes the HTTP path and authorization class, omitting any context about typical use cases or when not to use it.

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