Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=false, destructiveHint=false, and openWorldHint=false, so the safety profile is partially covered. The description adds only that the target is an 'approval step'; it does not say whether submission is reversible, whether it blocks further edits, who approves, or what state the improvement enters afterward.
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?
A single short sentence with no filler and the action front-loaded. It is efficient, though the terseness is under-specification rather than economy of expression.
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 a mutation tool with three undocumented required parameters, no output schema, and a workflow that clearly has adjacent sibling steps, this description is too thin. It omits preconditions, lifecycle position, and post-submission state, leaving the agent likely to confuse it with submit_article_for_review or decide_article_improvement.
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?
All three required parameters (projectId, siteId, improvementId) have 0% schema description coverage, and the description supplies no meaning for any of them. It does not explain that improvementId targets a specific drafted improvement within a project/site scope, so the description fails to compensate for the schema gap.
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 names a specific verb (send/submit) and resource (drafted improvement) and indicates the target state (approval step). However, it does not distinguish this tool from close siblings like submit_article_for_review, decide_article_improvement, or apply_article_improvement, so an agent cannot tell which stage of the improvement lifecycle this covers.
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 explicit when-to-use guidance, no stated precondition that an improvement must first be drafted or generated, and no mention of alternatives such as deciding or applying an improvement. The 'drafted' qualifier implies a precondition but leaves it for the agent to infer.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
