search_offplan_developments

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

With no annotations, the description carries the full behavioral burden. It hints at a curated read-only catalog but says nothing about result count, pagination, sort order, whether all filters are optional, or what happens with no filters — meaningful gaps for a search endpoint.

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?

A single, front-loaded sentence that names the resource and its filterable facets with no filler. Efficient, though slightly dense with an enumerated developer list.

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 five-parameter, all-optional search with no output schema, the description should at least gesture at the shape or volume of returned results. It covers the input facets well but leaves the output side entirely to inference.

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 coverage is 100%, so all five parameters are already documented in the schema, establishing a baseline of 3. The description adds only marginal value by naming specific developers (Emaar, Nakheel, Damac, Sobha, Ellington), which slightly clarifies the valid developer domain, but adds nothing beyond what the schema describes.

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?

States a specific verb ('searches') and resource ('curated premier Dubai off-plan developments') and enumerates the filterable dimensions, so the purpose is unmistakable. It doesn't explicitly contrast itself with the sibling calculators/analytics tools, but the search-vs-compute distinction is inferable.

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 versus siblings like get_dld_area_analytics, nor any prerequisites or exclusions. Usage is only implied by the word 'searches'.

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