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

With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden. It discloses that authentication is required, that the endpoint usually does not require a request body, and that path/query parameters are top-level with camelCase and snake_case aliases. It lacks details on error responses or the exact response format, but these are reasonable gaps for a simple GET proxy.

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 compact and front-loaded with the core action ('Get the auth url from trello'). Each sentence adds necessary information regarding endpoint, usage flow, and request details, with no verbosity or redundancy.

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 simplicity (no parameters, no output schema), the description covers all essential aspects: purpose, endpoint, return value, authentication, and request body expectations. It is sufficiently complete for an agent to correctly invoke the tool without additional context.

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 input schema has zero parameters, so the baseline is 4. The description mentions generic parameter conventions (top-level fields, case aliases) but no specific parameter semantics are needed. The description does not need to compensate for missing schema detail.

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 clearly states 'Get the auth url from trello' and specifies the exact REST endpoint 'GET /migration/trello/auth'. This distinguishes it from sibling migration tools and other resource types, making the purpose unambiguous.

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 context: the auth URL is needed to obtain an auth code for migrating from Trello to Vikunja. This implies when to use the tool, though it does not explicitly mention alternatives 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.
