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

With no annotations, the description must carry the full behavioral burden. It says the tool runs a deferred tier and returns an updated briefing, but it does not disclose side effects, permissions, idempotency, failure behavior, or what executing deferred work implies for the wake state.

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

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

The description is a single front-loaded sentence with no filler. It is efficient, though its brevity leaves behavioral gaps that are better assessed under completeness rather than conciseness.

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

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

For an execution-style tool with no annotations and no output schema, the definition is materially incomplete. It mentions the return artifact but omits side effects, prerequisites, parameter sourcing, and the meaning of 'deferred tier' relative to sibling wake operations.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

The only parameter, wake_id, has 0% schema description coverage. The description's phrase 'one of your wakes' hints that the parameter identifies a wake, but it does not clarify expected format, where to obtain the value, or how it relates to tools like hib_list_wakes or hib_get_wake.

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

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

The description uses a specific verb ('Run') and names the resource ('deferred tier of one of your wakes') plus the return artifact ('updated briefing'). It is clear what the tool does, but it does not explicitly distinguish itself from sibling wake tools such as hib_run_wake or hib_execute_wake.

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

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

There is no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like hib_run_wake, hib_execute_wake, or hib_resolve_wake. The phrase 'deferred tier' suggests a specialized path, but the description does not state the selecting condition or any prerequisites.

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