First observedJul 30, 2026

TDQS

A3.5/5.0

Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=false, destructiveHint=false and openWorldHint=false, and the description adds the mutation class ('Effect: workspace-change'), the required scope ('Permission: automations:write'), and retry semantics. It stops short of stating whether a malformed definition is rejected wholesale, whether preflight should precede creation, or what happens on name collisions.

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?

Four short, front-loaded clauses: action, effect, retry rule, permission, plus a reference link. No sentence is filler, and the operation is stated before the caveats.

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

Completeness3/5

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

An output schema exists, so return values needn't be described, but this is a high-complexity mutation with a deeply nested definition object and a sibling preflight tool, and the description gives no orientation to that body or to validation. Adequate for a simple create, thin for this schema.

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% for the two parameters, so the baseline is 3. The description adds the retry purpose of idempotency_key, but says nothing about the nested AutomationUpsertRequest body (name/definition/trigger/steps) beyond what the schema already documents.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

States a specific verb and resource ('Creates an automation') plus scope ('in the authenticated workspace'), so the agent can identify the operation without opening the schema. It does not, however, distinguish this from siblings such as automations_update or automations_preflight, which is the remaining gap.

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 'Retry with the same idempotency_key' line gives one usage condition, but there is no guidance on when to choose create vs. automations_update, nor any pointer to automations_preflight for validating a definition before creating. Usage is implied by the name rather than explained.

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