get_ux2_overview

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 does disclose the return contents well (groups with device counts, deployment states up-to-date/failed/in progress, feature profile counts), but omits permission/scope requirements, whether it's read-only (only implied by the 'get' name), and any pagination or tenant-scoping behavior.

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?

One dense sentence, front-loaded with the operation ('overview in one call') followed by the enumerated contents. Every clause maps to a real output dimension, though the sentence is long enough that the list of groups and the state/profile details run together.

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?

With no output schema and no annotations, the description does the necessary work of enumerating what comes back. For a zero-required-param overview tool this is nearly sufficient; only scope (tenant/global) and read-only confirmation are missing.

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% and the single optional 'solution' parameter is fully documented in the schema with its default (sdwan) and alternatives (sd-routing, nfvirtual, mobility). The description adds nothing about it, so baseline 3 applies.

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 resource ('UX 2.0 configuration overview') and enumerates what it aggregates: configuration groups, policy groups, topology groups, feature profile counts. The 'in one call' phrasing implicitly contrasts it with the granular sibling listers (list_config_groups, list_policy_groups, list_topology_groups), though it never names them.

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?

The 'in one call' framing implies this is the summary entry point vs. the individual list_/get_ group tools, but there is no explicit 'use this when you want X, use list_config_groups when you need Y' guidance or any stated prerequisites.

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