sellfox_ads_sb_negative_products

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

No annotations provided. Description does not disclose behavioral traits such as data freshness, pagination, read-only nature, or any side effects. Simply says 'basic data', which is uninformative.

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?

Extremely short (one phrase in Chinese), which is concise but lacks structure and meaningful content. It is front-loaded but insufficiently informative.

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?

No output schema, and description provides no information about return format, pagination, error states, or what 'basic data' entails. For a 4-parameter tool with a required shopId, this is severely incomplete.

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 covers all parameters with descriptions, so no additional value needed from the description. However, description does not add any context beyond the schema. Baseline 3 is appropriate.

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?

Description states 'SB negative product basic data' in Chinese. It indicates the subject (negative products for SB ads) but does not specify the action (listing, retrieving, etc.). Barely distinguishes from sibling tools like sellfox_ads_sb_negative_keywords by mentioning 'products', but lacks a clear verb.

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?

No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as sellfox_ads_sb_negative_keywords or other ad tools. No context on prerequisites or use cases.

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