get_recent_plugin_questions

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

No annotations are present, so the description should fully disclose behavior. It mentions 'recent' and '[query]' but does not state whether the operation is read-only, what permissions are needed, or any side effects. The behavior is implied but not explicit.

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 sentence, which is concise, but it includes a placeholder '[query]' that reduces clarity. It could be restructured to be more informative without adding length.

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?

Given four parameters, no output schema, and no annotations, the description is insufficient. It does not explain the return format, how parameters interact, or how this tool relates to siblings. The '[query]' token suggests missing context.

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 50% (only 'plugin_type' and 'period' have descriptions). The description adds no parameter information; the '[query]' placeholder is unclear. Hours and limit lack context despite having defaults, and the description does not clarify their usage beyond what the schema provides.

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 it retrieves recent plugin questions from Product Q&A, using a specific verb ('Muestra') and resource ('preguntas recientes de plugins'). However, it does not differentiate from sibling tools like 'get_unanswered_plugin_questions' or 'get_product_qa_questions', which handle similar data.

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 is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives. The description only states what it does, without any context on prerequisites, exclusions, or comparison to sibling tools.

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