Behavior3/5

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

The description indicates a read-only fetch operation, which aligns with safe usage. However, with no annotations, it does not disclose any potential side effects, prerequisites (e.g., dashcard being public), or behavior under error conditions. Adequate but not thorough.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is a single sentence, efficient and to the point. However, it sacrifices necessary details for brevity, making it slightly under-specified. A few more words would improve clarity without harming conciseness.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness2/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Given the complexity (nested parameter, no output schema) and many sibling tools, the description is insufficient. It does not clarify the tool's role in the action execution flow, how it differs from similar get/execute tools, or what the returned values look like. Output schema is missing, and the description does not compensate.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters2/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 0%, meaning the description adds no value beyond the schema. The description does not explain the purpose of the nested parameters (uuid, dashcard_id, parameters) or how they relate to the tool's task. Schema descriptions exist for sub-properties, but the tool-level description provides no parameter context.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

Description clearly states verb 'Fetch' and resource 'values for executing an action on a public dashcard', which is specific. However, it could be more precise by clarifying that these are parameter values, and it does not clearly distinguish from sibling tools like 'execute_public_dashcard_action' or 'get_public_dashcard_query'.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

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. Among many siblings that involve public dashcards (execute, get query, etc.), the description does not explain the context for fetching values before execution. No when-not or alternative tools mentioned.

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