ncloud_pca_get_crl_config

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

Annotations indicate readOnlyHint: true, signaling a safe read operation. The description adds that it retrieves the 'CRL update interval configuration,' which is slightly more specific than the name. However, it does not disclose behavioral details like required permissions, rate limits, or response format. With annotations covering safety, a score of 3 is appropriate.

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 concise sentence that directly states the tool's function. No unnecessary words or repetitions.

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 get operation with one parameter, no output schema, and high schema coverage, the description is complete. It adequately describes what the tool does without leaving gaps.

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 schema has 100% coverage for the single required parameter 'caTag' with description 'CA tag value.' The description adds no further meaning about what constitutes a valid CA tag, how to obtain it, or constraints. Baseline is 3 since the schema already documents the parameter.

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 CRL update interval configuration for a Private CA.' The verb 'Get' and the specific resource 'CRL update interval configuration' make the purpose unambiguous. It distinguishes well from siblings like ncloud_pca_update_crl_config (update) and ncloud_pca_get_ca (get CA details).

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 usage guidelines are provided. The description does not indicate prerequisites (e.g., CA must exist) nor contrast with alternatives like ncloud_pca_get_ca_chain or ncloud_pca_get_ca_crl. The agent is left to infer when to use this specific read operation among many PCA tools.

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