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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=false, destructiveHint=false, openWorldHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds a real behavioral trait not in the annotations: the operation is executed atomically 'in one transaction'. It stops short of describing failure/partial-error semantics or the effect of pausing on tracking.

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?

A single front-loaded sentence with the action, target, and key constraint; nothing redundant or padded.

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?

An output schema exists so return values need not be described, and annotations cover the mutation safety profile. However, for a three-parameter bulk mutation with 0% schema description coverage, the description leaves website_id, ID formats, and error/partial-failure behavior entirely undocumented.

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 carry parameter meaning. 'Pause or unpause' loosely maps to the status enum and 'prompts' to prompt_ids, but website_id is never mentioned and no ID format or batch-size limits are explained.

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?

States a specific action pair (pause/unpause) on a specific resource (prompts) with scope (multiple, one transaction), so the agent knows it is a bulk status mutation. It does not name the single-prompt sibling update_prompt, but the plurality and transactional framing implicitly differentiate it.

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?

The phrase 'multiple prompts in one transaction' implies this is the bulk alternative to update_prompt, but no explicit when-to-use/when-not or prerequisite guidance is given. Usage is inferable from the description, not stated.

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