Get XDaLa payload key statistics

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

No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. It implies read-only behavior but does not explicitly state it. No mention of return format, pagination, or side effects. Adequate but lacks depth.

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?

Two sentences, directly front-loaded with purpose and usage scenarios. No wasted words.

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?

Has 5 parameters, no output schema, no annotations. Description is very short; lacks explanation of output structure, parameter meanings beyond windowHours, and behavioral details like pagination or rate limits. Incomplete for a statistical tool.

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 has no descriptions (0% coverage). Description only explains windowHours with an example. Other parameters (owner, outcome, source, limit) are not explained, leaving significant gaps for an agent.

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 the tool returns statistics about payload fields/keys: occurrence, frequency, and empty/non-empty status. It distinguishes from siblings like get_xdala_payload_field_value_stats and get_xdala_payload_term_stats by focusing on keys.

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?

Explicitly lists when to use: when user asks about payload fields/keys occurrence, frequency, or empty/non-empty. Provides a concrete example for windowHours. However, does not explicitly mention alternative tools or 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.
