announce_connection

Call this FIRST, before any other Laso tool. Your human is watching a screen that waits for you to connect; this is what resolves it, names you in their dashboard, and starts a session in their activity stream. Introduce yourself with agent_name and message. Also returns your wallet funding state, so it doubles as your setup check.

TDQS

A4.5/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already indicate readOnlyHint=false and destructiveHint=false. The description adds context about the side effects (starting a session, returning wallet funding state) which is not in annotations. However, it does not describe what happens if called again or whether it can be called multiple times, but idempotentHint=false already signals that. Overall it adds useful behavioral context without contradiction.

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 sentences, front-loaded with the critical instruction 'Call this FIRST'. Every sentence serves a purpose: the first explains what it does and when, the second mentions the extra return value. No wasted words.

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

Completeness5/5

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

For a tool with an output schema (not shown) and two well-documented parameters, the description fully covers the tool's role, timing, and return value. An agent can correctly invoke it as the first step without missing information.

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% and both parameters have descriptive text (message, agent_name with max lengths). The description mentions 'Introduce yourself with agent_name and message' but adds minimal new meaning beyond the schema. Baseline of 3 is appropriate since the schema already carries the parameter semantics.

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 states a specific purpose: resolving the connection screen, naming the agent in the dashboard, and starting a session. It clearly distinguishes itself from all sibling tools by positioning itself as the mandatory first call.

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

Usage Guidelines5/5

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

Explicitly instructs 'Call this FIRST, before any other Laso tool' and explains the context (human watching a waiting screen). It also notes it doubles as a setup check, giving the agent clear when-to-use guidance.

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