set_reverse_dns

Publish a PTR record for an address on the lease. Live within a second; an empty hostname removes it.

Tool call template

Replace each placeholder with a value matching the input schema. Only required parameters are included; add optional parameters as needed.

B3.3/5.0

Behavior2/5

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

With no annotations, the description bears the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It adds a latency guarantee ('Live within a second') and mentions the removal behavior, but the removal behavior is already in the schema. It does not disclose prerequisites, side effects, reversibility, or error conditions, leaving significant gaps.

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 exceptionally concise, consisting of two short sentences. It front-loads the purpose and adds a behavioral nuance, with no unnecessary words or repetition.

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

Completeness2/5

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

For a 3-parameter tool with no annotations and no output schema, the description is too minimal. It omits essential context such as the requirement for an active lease, what happens if the address is not on the lease, potential failure modes, and the meaning of the return value. The latency note is helpful but not sufficient for complete context.

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 67% (hostname and access_token have descriptions, address does not). The description adds no parameter-specific meaning beyond the schema, and the undocumented 'address' parameter remains unexplained. The generic 'address' mention in the description does not clarify its format or constraints.

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 uses a specific verb 'Publish' and clearly identifies the resource as 'a PTR record for an address on the lease.' This distinguishes it from sibling tools that deal with tunnels, leases, or autorenewal, making the tool's purpose immediately clear.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

The description implies usage context (setting reverse DNS on a lease) but offers no explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. There are no exclusions or alternative recommendations, so the usage guidance is only implicit.

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