Latest release: v1.1.0
- Disambiguation4/5
Most tools have clearly distinct purposes, but there is potential confusion between get_cities and search_locations (both deal with geographic entities) and between get_record and get_record_partial. The descriptions are thorough, helping disambiguate, but the overlap is noticeable.
Naming Consistency5/5Tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern with snake_case (e.g., get_*, search_*, test_*). No mixing of styles or vague verbs, making the naming predictable and easy to understand.
Tool Count4/528 tools is slightly above the typical 3-15 range, but the complexity of the Infobel business database justifies this number. The tools are well-scoped to the domain, and each serves a clear purpose without being excessive.
Completeness4/5The tool set covers the core query and filter functionalities comprehensively, including reference data retrieval, category searches, and pagination. However, it lacks write operations (create/update/delete), which is acceptable for a read-oriented API. Minor gaps might include batch operations or advanced analytics.
Average 4/5 across 28 of 28 tools scored. Lowest: 3.1/5.

How is the quality score calculated?
The overall quality score combines two components: Tool Definition Quality (70%) and Server Coherence (30%).
Tool Definition Quality measures how well each tool describes itself to AI agents. Every tool is scored 1–5 across six dimensions: Purpose Clarity (25%), Usage Guidelines (20%), Behavioral Transparency (20%), Parameter Semantics (15%), Conciseness & Structure (10%), and Contextual Completeness (10%). The server-level definition quality score is calculated as 60% mean TDQS + 40% minimum TDQS, so a single poorly described tool pulls the score down.
Server Coherence evaluates how well the tools work together as a set, scoring four dimensions equally: Disambiguation (can agents tell tools apart?), Naming Consistency, Tool Count Appropriateness, and Completeness (are there gaps in the tool surface?).
Tiers are derived from the overall score: A (≥3.5), B (≥3.0), C (≥2.0), D (≥1.0), F (<1.0). B and above is considered passing.
Tool Scores
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
The description does not disclose any behavioral traits beyond the basic listing action. There are no annotations to rely on, so the description carries the full burden, but it adds no information about caching, ordering, or limitations.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is very concise with a single sentence. It wastes no words, but it is also not structured in a way that highlights key points.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's simplicity (no parameters) and the presence of an output schema (not shown), the description is minimally adequate. It states the basic purpose but could provide additional context, such as whether the list is static or dynamic.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The tool has no parameters, and the input schema covers 100% (trivially). According to the rubric, 0 parameters yields a baseline score of 4. The description does not add any parameter-specific semantics, but none are needed.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the action ('List') and the resource ('reliability codes') and mentions that it includes meanings, making the purpose clear. It is distinct from sibling get_* tools by specifying a unique resource.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives, such as other listing tools like get_languages or get_currencies. The description does not mention any context or prerequisites.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided, so the description must fully cover behavioral traits. It does not mention read-only nature, rate limits, authentication requirements, or side effects. It only explains return values (searchId, counts, records, page) but omits basic safety/behavioral info.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness2/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is about 2000 words, far too verbose. While it front-loads critical info (record_fields requirement and examples), the parameter list is repetitive and bloated. Could be substantially shortened without losing meaning.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the complexity (126 parameters, no schema descriptions, output schema exists), the description covers parameter usage and return structure but lacks behavioral context like read-only flag or authentication. It is adequate but not complete.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 0%, so the description carries full burden. It adds significant value by organizing parameters into categories (Identity, Address, Contact, etc.) and providing use-case examples for record_fields. However, the parameter list is lengthy and many parameters get only one-line explanations.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description starts with a clear verb+resource: 'Search the Infobel worldwide business database.' It explains that it searches for businesses with many filters, which distinguishes it from siblings like get_record (single record) and get_search_results (pagination). However, it does not explicitly contrast with all sibling tools.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description provides important guidance: record_fields is required, empty list for counts-only, uniqueID always included, and use-case examples for record_fields. It does not explicitly state when not to use this tool or offer alternatives like get_record for full records.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided, so description must carry behavioral disclosure. Only states it 'lists codes', lacking details on whether it is read-only, requires authentication, returns all codes, or any pagination. Insufficient for a tool with zero annotation coverage.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Single sentence conveying purpose efficiently. No unnecessary words; front-loaded with verb and resource.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool is simple (0 params, output schema exists), the description is mostly adequate. Explains the purpose as a search filter, but omits context like whether the list is static or dynamic. Slightly incomplete for a complete picture.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema has no parameters and 100% coverage trivially. Description adds no parameter info, but baseline is 3 due to high schema coverage. No additional meaning beyond schema needed, but could clarify that no parameters means all codes are returned.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Clearly states the verb 'List' and the resource 'import/export agent codes', and specifies their role as a search filter. Distinguishes from sibling tools by naming the specific filter field, though could elaborate on the format or usage scenario.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does 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. Does not mention that it is intended for populating a filter dropdown or that it returns static reference data. No exclusions or comparisons to sibling tools.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description should disclose behavioral traits. It only states 'List' (a read operation) but omits details like authentication requirements, pagination, or potential rate limits. The output schema exists but is not referenced or summarized.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is concise and well-structured: a one-sentence purpose, a brief definition, and a simple parameter list. Every sentence adds value without redundancy.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's simplicity (one optional parameter, output schema present), the description is nearly complete. It covers purpose and parameter meaning, but could mention the return type or that tags are used for filtering search results.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Despite 0% schema coverage, the description adds clear meaning to the single optional parameter 'keyword' with a concrete filter example ('ceo', 'founder'), which goes beyond the bare schema type and default.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool lists executive tags for a specific search filter, distinguishing it from sibling tools like get_technographical_tags. The examples 'ceo', 'founder' add clarity, but the phrase 'for the executive_tags search filter' assumes familiarity with the broader API.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description implies usage context (for a search filter) but offers no explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, nor does it mention when not to use it. No sibling comparisons or prerequisites are provided.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description must carry the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It only states 'Check the status' but does not mention whether the operation is read-only, has side effects, or any rate limits. For a simple status check, the behavioral impact is minimal, but the description lacks explicit transparency.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is extremely concise, with two short sentences and a parameter docstring. It immediately states the purpose and provides the necessary parameter context without any extraneous information.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given that an output schema exists, the description does not need to explain return values. However, it does not mention what the output looks like or possible statuses, which could help. Overall, it is complete enough for a simple tool with one parameter and no complex behaviors.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The single parameter search_id is documented in the schema as an integer. The description adds context by stating it is 'returned by search_businesses', which helps the agent understand the origin of the value. This compensates for the schema's lack of descriptive text (0% coverage) and makes the parameter semantics clear.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states 'Check the status of a previous search', specifying the verb (check) and resource (status of a search). It distinguishes from sibling tools like get_search_results by focusing on status, not results. However, it could be more specific about what status values are possible.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description implies usage after search_businesses by referencing the search_id returned by that tool. However, it does not explicitly state when to use this tool versus alternatives like get_search_results, nor does it provide exclusions or prerequisites.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided, and the description does not disclose behavioral traits such as side effects, authentication needs, or whether the operation is read-only. It only states what the tool does, not its impact.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is concise with three sentences, front-loading the purpose. Every sentence adds value without unnecessary repetition.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the simplicity of the tool (1 optional parameter, output schema present), the description covers the essential aspects. Minor missing details like case sensitivity or result format are likely covered by the output schema.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
With 0% schema coverage, the description compensates well by explaining the 'keyword' parameter with examples ('shopify', 'wordpress') and stating it is optional for filtering.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states it lists technographic tags for a search filter and explains what those tags are. It implicitly distinguishes from sibling tools like get_executive_tags by specifying the tag type.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description implies usage when populating the technographical_tags filter but does not explicitly state when not to use it or mention alternatives among sibling tools.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description carries full burden for behavioral disclosure. It only states a 'get' operation, with no mention of error handling, permissions, rate limits, or idempotency. The behavior is assumed safe but not explicitly clarified.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is exceptionally concise (three lines), front-loaded with the core purpose, and includes parameter details in a structured Args block. Every sentence adds value without redundancy.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
The tool has an output schema, so the description does not need to detail return values. It covers the essential inputs and purpose. However, it lacks any mention of error scenarios or limits, which would be useful for a full understanding.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 0%, but the description adds clear meaning for both parameters: country_code is ISO 3166-1 alpha-2, unique_id is an Infobel unique ID. This compensates for the lack of schema descriptions, providing essential context beyond the raw schema.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool 'gets the full record for a business' filtered by country code and unique ID. It is specific about the resource (business record) and the inputs, distinguishing it from siblings like get_record_partial.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as get_record_partial or other search tools. There is no mention of prerequisites or context for invocation.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden of disclosing behavioral traits. It only states the action without explaining what happens on success/failure, authentication methods, or side effects. This is insufficient for a tool with no annotations.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is extremely concise, using a single sentence that is front-loaded with the verb and object. There is no wasted text.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's simplicity (no parameters, clear purpose) and the presence of an output schema documenting return values, the description covers the essential context. It could mention that it is safe to call repeatedly, but it is mostly complete.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema has no parameters, so schema_description_coverage is effectively 100%. The description does not add parameter information, but none is needed. Baseline score of 3 is appropriate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool's purpose: verifying API connectivity and authentication. It uses a specific verb ('Verify') and resource ('API connectivity and authentication'), and it distinguishes itself from sibling tools that focus on data retrieval or searches.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description implies the tool is for testing connectivity before other operations, but it does not explicitly state when to use it vs. alternatives or provide any 'when-not-to-use' guidance. For a simple health-check tool, this is minimally adequate but lacks explicit direction.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It only states 'partial (lighter) record' without explaining what is omitted, performance implications, or any side effects. This is insufficient for an agent to understand behavioral traits.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is extremely concise with two sentences for purpose and a separate line for each parameter. It front-loads the core purpose and avoids any unnecessary fluff.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the presence of an output schema, return values are likely covered. However, the description lacks context about when to use this over 'get_record,' what constitutes 'partial,' and any performance or completeness trade-offs. It is adequate but not comprehensive.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The schema description coverage is 0%, but the description adds meaning for both parameters: 'country_code: ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code (e.g. "GB").' and 'unique_id: Infobel unique ID for the business.' This goes beyond the schema's mere type and required status.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool's purpose: 'Get a partial (lighter) record for a business.' It specifies the verb 'Get' and the resource 'partial record for a business,' distinguishing it from the sibling 'get_record' by emphasizing 'partial.'
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description implies that this tool is for lighter data compared to 'get_record,' but it does not explicitly state when to use this over alternatives, nor does it mention any when-not-to-use scenarios or prerequisites.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description must fully disclose behavior. It mentions returning codes but does not specify result limits, pagination, error handling, or whether the operation is read-only. For a search tool with no annotations, this is insufficient.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is compact, front-loaded with purpose, then usage guidance, then parameter list. No unnecessary sentences, and every line adds value.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
The description covers purpose, parameter usage, and downstream integration with search_businesses. An output schema exists, so return values need not be detailed. For a simple search tool, this is largely complete, though lacking behavioral details.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 0%, so the description must compensate. It explains each parameter (e.g., country_code is ISO 3166-1 alpha-2, keyword is city name or partial name), which adds meaning beyond the parameter names. However, the explanations are brief and do not cover all nuances like format or constraints.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states 'Search cities within a country by keyword' and specifies the use of returned codes in search_businesses filters. This verb+resource+scope distinguishes it from sibling tools like get_provinces or get_locations.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines4/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Explicitly advises to always provide a keyword and never call without one, and explains how to use the results. However, it does not explicitly contrast with sibling tools or cover when not to use this tool.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries full burden. It states the tool lists codes and descriptions, implying a read-only operation, but lacks details on permissions, rate limits, or any other behavioral traits beyond the basic output.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is two sentences, front-loaded with the purpose, and every sentence provides necessary information without redundancy.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given no parameters and the existence of an output schema, the description sufficiently explains what the tool returns (codes and descriptions) and its usage context. It could be slightly more detailed about the output, but overall it is complete.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
There are no parameters, baseline is 4. The description adds value by explaining that the flags are used in a search filter and represent crawl/availability status, which is additional context beyond the empty schema.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states it lists website status flags used in a specific search filter, and specifies it returns integer codes and descriptions about crawl/availability status. This distinguishes it from sibling tools like get_available_countries or get_currencies.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description mentions the tool is used in the 'website_status_flags' search filter, providing implicit context, but does not explicitly state when to use it 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.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. It discloses required and optional parameters but does not describe output structure, error behavior, or any side effects. With an output schema present but not referenced, the description misses an opportunity to summarize return format.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Extremely concise: one-line purpose, a usage hint, then structured Args list. Every sentence adds value with no redundant or vague language.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple listing tool with 3 parameters and an output schema, the description covers purpose, parameters, and usage context. It could mention the output shape (list of province codes/names), but given the output schema existence, this is a minor gap.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
With 0% schema description coverage, the description adds crucial semantics: explains country_code as ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 with examples, region_code as coming from get_regions, and language_code as display language with examples. This goes well beyond the bare schema which only has titles and types.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description clearly states verb 'List' and resource 'provinces for a country' with optional region filter. It distinguishes from siblings by specifying how the returned codes are used in get_cities or search_businesses, making the tool's role in the ecosystem clear.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines4/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Provides explicit usage context (list provinces, optionally filtered by region) and hints at next steps (using codes in other tools). However, lacks an explicit statement of when NOT to use this tool or direct comparison with siblings like get_cities or get_regions.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided. Description is minimal and does not disclose caching, authentication, or response behavior. However, the tool is simple and read-only.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Single sentence with no unnecessary words. Front-loaded and efficient.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness5/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given zero parameters and existence of output schema, the description provides sufficient context for a simple listing tool.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
No parameters; description adds context ('countries in Infobel database') beyond the empty schema. Baseline for zero parameters is 4.

Usage Guidelines4/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description explicitly states 'Use this for EU industry classification queries' and notes the results are intended for the search_businesses tool's field, providing clear usage context. However, it does not explicitly exclude alternatives or mention when not to use it, so a slight deduction for lacking exclusions.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior4/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description carries the full burden. It correctly implies a read-only operation by using 'List', but does not disclose error scenarios, rate limits, or response format. However, for a straightforward list tool, this is adequate.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is composed of two concise sentences, front-loading the main purpose and following with usage guidance. No wasted words.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
The tool is simple with one parameter and an output schema exists (not shown). The description mentions the codes are for a filter, but doesn't describe the return structure. However, the output schema likely covers that, so it is mostly complete.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters5/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 0%, so the description must compensate. It explains 'country_code: ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code (e.g. "BE", "GB", "US")', which adds format, examples, and context beyond the schema's simple 'string' type.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states 'List national identification type codes for a country' with a specific verb and resource. It distinguishes from sibling tools by focusing on national ID types, which is unique among the many 'get_*' siblings.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines5/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description explicitly tells when to use the tool and how: 'Use the returned codes in the search_businesses national_identification_type_codes filter.' This provides clear downstream context and distinguishes it from other list tools.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
