get_admin_events

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the burden of disclosure. It discloses meaningful behavioral context: admin events reflect service-account/admin operations, the default date_from is last 24h, and max_repr semantics. It does not explicitly discuss read-only status or auth requirements, but 'Get' plus the audit-query framing make these less critical.

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 front-loaded with the purpose paragraph and followed by a compact, scannable Args list. Every sentence adds value; there is no padded language or repetition of the input schema.

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?

The tool has 7 parameters and zero schema-level parameter descriptions, but the text covers all seven, provides defaults and enums in prose, and gives a why/when not to use. Because an output schema exists, not explaining return values is acceptable, and there is no significant explanatory gap.

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 provides only parameter names and defaults (0% description coverage), so this description is the only source of parameter meaning. The Args section thoroughly defines every parameter, including enum-like values for operation_types and resource_types, a resource_path example, date format, and default behavior for max_results and max_repr.

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 opens with a specific verb + resource ('Get KeyCloak admin events') and immediately clarifies the scope: changes performed via the Admin REST API. It explicitly distinguishes these from user events and references sibling 'get_events', so the agent can disambiguate among similar tools.

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?

It provides an explicit 'Use this when...' trigger: when UPDATE_PROFILE in get_events is empty but an attribute is known to have changed. It also differentiates admin events from user events, giving clear selection guidance for this tool versus related event-retrieval tools.

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