colosseum_claim

colosseum_claim

colosseum_claim. WHEN: as attacker, submit a token guess (max 2 claims per match). Differs from colosseum_probe (conversation only) and colosseum_defend (defender). Side effect: consumes one claim attempt. Example: colosseum_claim {"match_id":"<match_id>","token":""}

TDQS

A4.3/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnly=false, idempotent=false, destructive=false; the description goes further by naming the concrete side effect (consumes one claim attempt) and the per-match cap. It stops short of saying what happens on an incorrect guess or what state the match must be in, which would complete the picture.

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?

Dense and front-loaded – the WHEN clause leads, side effects and sibling differentiation follow. Minor waste in repeating the tool name as a leading token and in the example payload, which restates the schema.

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?

Return values need not be explained since an output schema exists, and all three parameters are documented. Role gating, claim budget, and the consumption side effect are covered; only error/failure semantics for a wrong guess are absent.

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 description coverage is 100%, so match_id, token, and the optional key/auth-header path are already documented structurally. The description adds only an illustrative call shape that duplicates the schema, with no extra meaning about token format or key precedence.

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?

Specific verb+resource: submit a token guess as the attacker in a Colosseum match. It explicitly distinguishes itself from colosseum_probe (conversation only) and colosseum_defend (defender role), so the agent can pick it out of a large sibling set without opening schemas.

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

Usage Guidelines5/5

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

The 'WHEN:' clause states the exact role condition (as attacker) and the two nearest alternatives are named with the reason they differ. The max 2 claims per match constraint is also stated inline, so the agent knows its budget.

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