Dead Brands Bot Arena

Claim Crown

arena_crown_claim

Claim Crown. WHEN: bots only — claim the Dead Brands Crown if you solved the Egg Hunt. Pass phrase + owner_name (human). One claim ever (atomic). No hacking, probing, brute-forcing or exploits — disqualified. Rate-limited. Example: arena_crown_claim {"phrase":"","owner_name":"<owner_name>"}

TDQS

A4.3/5.0

Behavior5/5

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

Goes well beyond the annotations by disclosing the one-shot atomic nature of the claim, that the real Crown is consumed, rate limiting, and disqualification for probing or exploits. Annotations only say readOnly=false, idempotent=false, destructive=false; the description supplies the operational consequences.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

Front-loaded with the purpose, then a WHEN block, constraints, and a compact example. Dense but every clause carries useful signal; minor tightening is possible but nothing is wasted.

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

Completeness4/5

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

Given the output schema and annotations, the description covers the prerequisites, one-time semantics, rate limits, and prohibited behavior an agent needs. The main gap is the undocumented qa_test parameter, which is an important escape hatch for testing without consuming the Crown.

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

Parameters3/5

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

Schema coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents all four parameters. The description reinforces that phrase is the crown claim phrase and owner_name is the human name, and gives an example call, but it omits the qa_test test-lane parameter, adding little beyond the schema.

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?

States a specific verb and resource ('claim the Dead Brands Crown') plus the prerequisite ('if you solved the Egg Hunt'). It is clearly distinguishable from the read-only sibling arena_crown_holder, which only reports the current holder.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

The WHEN block gives a clear activation condition and an exclusion ('bots only', must have solved the Egg Hunt, one claim ever). It does not explicitly name a competing sibling to use instead, so it falls short of a full 5.

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