Read-onlyIdempotent

Generate dialect-correct ALTER TABLE migration SQL + rollback from a plain-English intent. Output uses the connection's exact dialect (ALTER TABLE for all three, plus pg-specific USING casts / mssql-specific sp_rename / mysql-specific MODIFY COLUMN). Never executes. Check response dialect field before manually editing — don't hand-translate across dialects. [BUILD tier]

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
intentYesPlain English: 'add soft delete to drivers', 'add index on trips.driver_id'
connectionNoTarget connection name from this tenant's inventory. Call `list_connections` to see every name + dialect, then match semantically to the user's intent (e.g. 'analytics' → a connection named `*-analytics-*`; 'prod' → a connection with `prod-` prefix). If the user didn't specify, use the tenant's default (first added). Do not invent names — resolve from `list_connections` output.

  5. First observed

TDQS

A4.4/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Beyond the readOnlyHint annotation, the description explicitly states 'Never executes' and explains that output is dialect-specific and includes rollback. It adds practical behavioral guidance: check the dialect field rather than manually translating between dialects. This substantially enriches the annotation-only signal and is consistent with the annotations.

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

Conciseness5/5

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

The description is two dense sentences plus a tier tag, with the core action front-loaded. Dialect behavior, safety, and post-output guidance each earn their place. There is no filler or repetition of schema content.

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?

The description covers scope, dialect behavior, non-execution, rollback, and the dialect-checking workflow. With annotations and an output schema present, an agent has enough to call this tool correctly. The only minor gap is that it does not state explicit exclusions such as which migration operations are unsupported, though the ALTER TABLE scope is already clear.

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 both parameters well. The tool description adds useful context about plain-English intent and connection-determined dialect, but it does not go into parameter-specific semantics beyond what the schema provides. Baseline 3 is appropriate.

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?

The description opens with a specific verb and resource: 'Generate dialect-correct ALTER TABLE migration SQL + rollback from a plain-English intent.' It names concrete dialect behaviors and explicitly states the tool never executes, which separates it from query/execution siblings like query_sql. The purpose is unambiguous and scopes the tool to migration generation.

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 description gives clear context: use plain-English intent to generate dialect-correct migration SQL with rollback, and never execute. It also instructs the agent to check the response 'dialect' field before manual editing and not hand-translate across dialects. It does not explicitly name alternative tools or when-not-to-use conditions, so it stops short of a 5.

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