A3.9/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already establish readOnlyHint=false, destructiveHint=false, and idempotentHint=false; the description adds genuinely new behavior by disclosing that the request is queued for manager review rather than executed, and that a confirmation with disposition details is returned. It does not cover how long review takes or what a rejection looks like, but the essentials beyond the annotations are there.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Two short sentences, front-loaded with the action and followed by the queuing/disposition behavior. The return-value clause partially duplicates the output schema, but the description is still tight with no 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?

For a single-parameter submission tool with full schema coverage and an output schema, the description covers what happens after the call (review queue) which is the only non-obvious aspect. Nothing critical about invocation is missing, though naming the sibling contrast would have made routing airtight.

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?

Only one parameter exists and schema description coverage is 100%, with the 20–1000 character constraint documented in the schema itself. The description adds no constraints, examples, or formatting hints beyond that, so the baseline 3 is 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?

States a specific verb and resource ("Submits a request to add a new feature or improve an existing one") plus the downstream handling ("queued for manager review"). It implicitly separates itself from test-ordering siblings like orderNewTest by noting there is no immediate-approval path, but it never names a sibling explicitly.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

Gives a clear condition for use (wanting a new feature or an improvement) and rules out an expectation of instant fulfillment ("no immediate-approval alternative... queued for manager review"). It stops short of explicitly routing the agent away from requestNewTest/orderNewTest by name, so the agent must infer the boundary.

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