element_getInnerElement

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

With no annotations, the description must disclose behavioral traits. It only mentions the withWxml option for outerWxml but does not state whether the operation is read-only, requires permissions, has side effects, or what happens if elements are not found. The behavioral profile is severely incomplete.

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 short (two sentences), but it is under-specified rather than concise. It lacks front-loading of critical information and leaves important gaps. Every sentence should earn its place, but here the first sentence is ambiguous and the second only covers one parameter.

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 the tool has five parameters, includes a nested connection object, and has no output schema, the description is woefully incomplete. It fails to explain the core logic of how the selectors work together, the return format, or any edge cases. The agent would struggle to use this tool correctly.

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 description coverage is 0%, so the description must compensate. However, it only explains the withWxml parameter, leaving selector, innerSelector, and targetSelector completely unexplained. The nested connection object is also not described. The description adds minimal value beyond the schema.

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 states 'get element within element range' but does not clarify how the three selectors (selector, innerSelector, targetSelector) relate. The analogy to element.$(selector) is misleading as it suggests only one selector. The purpose is vague and leaves ambiguity about what exactly the tool does.

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 the many sibling tools like element_getInnerElements or element_getElement. There is no mention of prerequisites, context, or alternatives, leaving the agent without decision support.

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