DestructiveIdempotent

Update a season. Archive only after the creator explicitly requests it.

Input Schema

Name	Required	Description
`work_id`	Yes
`arguments`	Yes
`read_skills`	Yes	Exact required native skills and their dependencies, copied from the accepted session bootstrap's skills array. Include only entries in that array. General mcp.* guides and native.{studio}.instructions are guidance, not native skill proofs.
`request_key`	Yes
`publication_proposal_id`	No	For native Social scheduling, the exact server-approved publication proposal. This identifier cannot confer approval by itself.
`expected_catalog_version`	Yes	For a new session, read a studios/{studio}/native/{pack} child toolset and copy invocation.catalog_version from a native tool descriptor. Do not use the top-level library version. For calls in an existing session, use that session proposal's catalog_version.

C2.3/5.0

Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare destructiveHint=true, idempotentHint=true and openWorldHint=true, so the safety profile is carried structurally. The description adds one genuinely useful behavioral rule about archiving gating on explicit creator consent, but says nothing about optimistic concurrency failure modes, what a status transition implies, or the skill-proof requirement.

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

Conciseness3/5

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

Two short sentences with no filler and the archiving caveat placed up front, so nothing is wasted. However, the brevity reflects under-specification rather than economy given the tool's complexity.

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?

This is a destructive, nested-payload mutation with a required expected_revision, a required read_skills proof array, request_key and expected_catalog_version. The description addresses none of this workflow; an output schema exists so return values needn't be covered, but the invocation preconditions are left entirely to the schema.

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 description coverage is 50% and the description explains zero parameters. Several fields (title, status, season_bible, style_guidelines) have empty or missing schema descriptions, so the description should compensate for the gap but instead adds no meaning beyond the raw schema.

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?

"Update a season" restates the tool title almost verbatim; it names no updatable fields (title, status, description, season_bible, style_guidelines) and never distinguishes this from siblings such as native.create_season. The only non-tautological content is the archive constraint, which is behavioral rather than purpose-defining.

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?

The single conditional rule ("Archive only after the creator explicitly requests it") is a narrow guardrail for one enum value, not general routing guidance. There is no statement of when to call this versus creating a season, or what prerequisites (catalog version, skills proof, current revision) must hold first.

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