get_computed_phonemes

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries the behavioral disclosure burden. It clearly signals a read-only retrieval via 'Retrieve' and explains the data comes from the synthesis engine, but it does not mention whether any synthesis state is required, whether the call mutates anything, or what errors may occur.

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 a single, front-loaded sentence with no filler. It packs the verb, target, attribute list, and underlying API reference into a compact and scannable statement.

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?

For a simple read-only tool this is reasonably complete: it identifies what is retrieved and the source. However, with no output schema and no annotations, it leaves the return shape, parameter semantics, and when-to-use guidance to be inferred, so it is only minimally viable.

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 description coverage is 0%, so the description must compensate for the undocumented groupIndex and trackIndex parameters. It does not fully do so: the API name suggests a group-based operation, but the description does not explain the meaning of either parameter or how defaults behave beyond what the schema already shows.

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 uses a specific verb ('Retrieve') and names the resource ('SynthV internal synthesis engine-computed phonemes and attributes'), even listing the attributes. It does not explicitly contrast with the sibling get_phonemes, but the 'computed' qualifier and the underlying API hint make its focus clear.

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 implies this tool should be used for engine-computed phonemes and attributes rather than static or user-set values, especially given the sibling get_phonemes. However, it does not explicitly state when to prefer this over 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.
