Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare the operation safe (readOnly, idempotent, non-destructive). The description adds meaningful behavioral context: sort order, filtered listing, returns keys and sizes rather than values, and the API-key requirement with a link. This goes beyond what annotations or schema convey.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
