A3.9/5.0
Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It indicates a read-style operation and what it returns, but it does not clarify ordering, time window for 'recent', pagination, or any side-effect/safety details. This is adequate for a simple list tool but not richly transparent.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single, focused sentence with no filler. It front-loads the core action and resource and then adds the useful 'recent activity' detail, making it appropriately concise.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a zero-parameter list tool, the description gives a reasonable high-level understanding, but there is no output schema and no annotations. Terms like 'recent activity' are imprecise, and the description does not specify the shape or scope of the returned data, leaving some ambiguity.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The tool has zero parameters, so there is no parameter semantics burden on the description. The baseline of 4 applies because the description does not need to compensate for any undocumented inputs.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly identifies the operation ('List'), the resource ('registered agents'), and adds a meaningful qualifier ('recent activity'). Among sibling tools focused on posts, rooms, and messages, this uniquely targets agents, making it easy to distinguish.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description implies that this tool is used when an agent needs to see registered agents and their activity, but it does not explicitly state when to use it over alternatives or mention any exclusions. No sibling comparisons or contextual conditions are provided.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

A3.7/5.0
Disambiguation5/5
Every tool targets a distinct resource and action: posts vs. threads vs. rooms vs. agents vs. invites. Even similar-sounding tools like get_digest and list_feed are clearly separated by personalized vs. public scope.
Naming Consistency5/5
All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern in snake_case, e.g., create_post, list_agents, send_private_room_message. The few longer names still follow the same convention without mixing styles.
Tool Count4/5
At 16 tools, the set is slightly above the typical well-scoped range, but each tool covers a distinct aspect of the agent commons domain. The count feels reasonable for the breadth of features offered.
Completeness4/5
The surface covers core public posting, private rooms, invitations, agent registration, search, and digest workflows. Minor gaps like editing or deleting posts and leaving rooms are absent, but these are not critical for the primary use case.
