TDQS

A3.8/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

The annotations already mark the tool as destructive and non-idempotent, but the description reinforces the behavioral implication of the action itself—namely, that it changes the user's membership status in the chat/channel. This adds necessary high-level context without redundancy.

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 definition is extremely concise, communicating the core function of the tool in a single, efficient sentence. It avoids jargon and unnecessary filler.

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

Completeness4/5

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

Given that the output schema is present and the input parameters are well-defined, the description is complete enough to enable an agent to select and invoke the tool correctly. It clearly defines the target of the action.

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?

Since the schema coverage is 100%, the description provides little additional semantic value beyond repeating the information already supplied in the schema descriptions. It mentions the resource type (group/channel) but adds no unique constraints or format details.

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 precisely identifies the two types of actions: leaving a group or unfollowing a channel, and specifies the required identifier (JID) for both. This distinguishes its function clearly from other potential messaging actions.

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?

While it clearly states *how* the tool operates (by JID), it provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus siblings like `wa_join_group` or `wa_follow_channel`. The usage context is only implied.

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