TDQS

A3.6/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare the full profile: destructiveHint=true, idempotentHint=false, openWorldHint=true. The description adds real value by disclosing that the call returns DNS targets requiring follow-up configuration, but it does not address what happens if a domain is already claimed, whether re-claiming replaces it, or that verification is asynchronous — notable gaps for a destructive, non-idempotent mutation.

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, zero waste, with the primary action front-loaded and the return-shape hint second. The precondition sentence earns its place by preventing a class of failed calls.

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 one-parameter tool with a full schema, an output schema (so return values need no explanation), and complete annotations, this is close to sufficient. The only shortfall is the absence of failure/replacement semantics for the destructive claim itself.

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% with a concrete example (blog.example.com) plus min/max length constraints, so the schema carries the load. The description adds only the word "hostname", which is a modest restatement rather than new meaning — baseline 3 applies.

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?

"Claim a custom hostname for the workspace blog" gives a specific verb (claim) and resource, clearly distinct from siblings like get_blog_custom_domain and remove_blog_custom_domain. It also states the side effect (returns DNS targets), though it never names the sibling read/remove tools explicitly.

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?

The precondition "The blog must already have a title" is genuinely useful gating information. However, there is no explicit guidance on when to use this versus get_blog_custom_domain or remove_blog_custom_domain; the when-to-use is only implied by the verb "claim".

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