OverviewDiscussionsAdmin

Ask a user to approve

create_approval

Send an approval request to the user's trusted phone, with number matching. The user must have a phone enrolled through the SignOps SDK.

Tool call template

TDQS

A3.8/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

The annotations already declare this as a non-read-only, non-idempotent, open-world operation. The description adds useful behavioral context: the request goes to a trusted phone, uses number matching, and requires prior phone enrollment through the SignOps SDK.

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?

Two short sentences, front-loaded with the core action and followed by the key prerequisite. No wasted language.

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?

For a simple two-parameter mutation with rich schema coverage and annotations, the description covers purpose and the main prerequisite. It stops short of explaining the result, expiry, or how it relates to sibling tools, but the core information needed to call it is present.

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 description coverage is 100%, so both parameters are already well documented in the schema. The description adds no parameter-level meaning beyond what the schema provides, making the baseline 3 appropriate.

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: sending an approval request to the user's trusted phone with number matching. It is clearly an approval-creation action, but it does not explicitly distinguish itself from siblings such as send_push or get_approval.

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?

Usage is implied by 'Send an approval request' and the prerequisite that the user must have an enrolled phone. However, there is no explicit guidance on when to use this versus send_push or the approval retrieval/cancellation siblings.

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