get_hyperdrive_config

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

There are no annotations, so the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It only says 'Get details', which hints at a read operation but does not describe idempotence, response shape, required permissions, or any side effects. This is minimal behavioral information for a tool with no annotation support.

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 with no filler or redundant wording. It is front-loaded with the verb and object. It could earn a 5 if it included more useful context, but as written it is concise without being bloated.

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?

There is no output schema, no annotations, and no description of return values beyond the vague word 'details'. The schema tells the agent what parameters to send, but the description does not explain what the response contains or how this relates to list_hyperdrive_configs. This leaves the agent under-informed for interpreting the result.

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?

The input schema already documents both parameters with 100% coverage, including types, requirements, and descriptions. The description adds no additional parameter meaning beyond what the schema provides, so the baseline score of 3 is appropriate.

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 uses a clear verb and resource: 'Get details of a Hyperdrive configuration'. It conveys that this tool retrieves a single configuration's details, which distinguishes it from the sibling list_hyperdrive_configs. However, it does not explicitly state that it fetches one specific record by ID.

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 list_hyperdrive_configs or other getters. The tool's purpose is implied by the name, but the description gives no context about prerequisites, such as needing an existing hyperdrive_id, or when exactly to choose this operation.

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