TDQS

D1.7/5.0
Behavior1/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden, yet it discloses nothing about execution behavior: no working-directory context, no persistence between calls, no timeout/rate limits, no safety notes for arbitrary command execution.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness2/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The definition is short but under-specified rather than concise; a single tautological fragment leaves the essential information absent. Nothing is front-loaded because nothing substantive is stated.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness1/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a tool that executes arbitrary shell commands — the highest-risk category — the description omits every behavior an agent needs: execution semantics, output behavior, error handling, and interaction with sibling shells. With no annotations and no output schema, this is completely inadequate.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters2/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is nominally 100%, but the single parameter's description ("Specific parameters for this action.") is vacuous boilerplate rather than real semantics. The tool description adds nothing about what `detail` should contain, so the nominal coverage does not translate into usable meaning.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose2/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The phrase "Terminal command (runner operator): sh" restates the tool name rather than stating a verb+resource action. It hints that this runs shell commands via the sh interpreter, but gives no explicit verb and no distinction from the bash/zsh siblings.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

There is no guidance on when to use sh versus command__bash, command__zsh, or the interpreter__* tools. The agent is left to infer the selection criteria entirely from the name.

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