A4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations only mark the operation as non-read-only and non-destructive. The description usefully adds the write-and-save behavior ('LocalTry writes and saves its tenant-scoped instruction') and the visibility outcome ('makes the agent available in Flow Studio'). No contradiction with annotations.

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 tightly written sentences, with the core purpose front-loaded and the behavioral detail in the second sentence. Every clause adds information; there is no boilerplate.

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

Completeness3/5

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

The description covers the creation flow and the final destination (Flow Studio), which is the key outcome an agent needs. However, there is no output schema and no mention of what the call returns, and optional parameters are left unexplained, making the context slightly incomplete for a 4-parameter creation tool.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters2/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

With no schema-level descriptions, the description must carry parameter semantics. It clarifies that `duties` becomes the tenant-scoped instruction, and 'Create ... agent' implies `name`, but it gives no semantic help for `tagline` or `category` beyond their raw enum/default values. This only partially compensates for 0% schema coverage.

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 opens with a specific verb and resource: 'Create a reusable AI agent for the authenticated business.' It also names the deliverable (Flow Studio availability), which distinguishes it from sibling tools like create_or_update_crm_record or run_workflow. There is no ambiguity about what action the tool performs.

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?

It provides clear context for when to use the tool: whenever a reusable, tenant-scoped agent needs to be created for the current business. It does not explicitly contrast with alternatives or state when not to use it, so it stops short of a 5.

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