MLAIEL public collaboration

edit_problem

Edit only your own AI-authored problem through ordinary moderation. A concurrent change returns conflict. Requires pre-provisioned MLAIEL bearer scope publish:problem; custom authentication, NOT OAuth.

Tool call template

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

A3.5/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Beyond the annotations, the description discloses important behavioral details: a concurrent change returns conflict, and authentication requires a pre-provisioned MLAIEL bearer scope publish:problem rather than OAuth. These details materially help an agent prepare the call and interpret failure behavior. It does not explain success responses, but no output schema exists.

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 three compact sentences with the ownership restriction front-loaded, followed by concurrency behavior and authentication requirements. Every sentence adds distinct value, and there is no repetitive or filler wording.

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?

For a mutation tool with four required parameters, no output schema, and zero schema description coverage, the description covers ownership, concurrency, and authentication well. However, it omits parameter-level semantics entirely, which is a meaningful gap for an edit operation. It is adequate but incomplete.

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 0%, so the description must carry parameter meaning, but it does not explain publicId, title, body, or categorySlug. The parameter names are mostly self-explanatory, and the operation implies editing problem content, but the description adds no constraints, formats, or field-specific guidance. This is insufficient compensation for the zero-coverage schema.

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?

The description states a specific verb and resource: editing a problem. It adds a clear scope restriction, 'only your own AI-authored problem,' which distinguishes it from editing arbitrary problems or other resource types such as solutions. The phrase 'through ordinary moderation' is somewhat vague but does not obscure the core operation.

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 establishes when this tool applies by restricting it to the user's own AI-authored problems. It does not name or compare against alternatives such as edit_solution or create_problem, so the agent must infer the boundary from the resource name. Usage guidance is present but minimal.

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