star_preset

Idempotent

Star a shared preset for this account, as on GitHub (on: false takes the star back). Without id, lists the presets this account starred.

A4.1/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare the safety profile (readOnlyHint=false, idempotentHint=true, destructiveHint=false). The description adds useful behavior beyond that: on:false removes the star, and omitting id switches to listing starred presets.

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 short sentences, front-loaded with the primary action and immediately followed by the key toggle and listing exception. There is no wasted text.

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 simple toggle/list tool with annotations and no output schema, the description covers the essential modes and parameter behaviors. It does not discuss return shape or account prerequisites, but those gaps are minor given the structured metadata.

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

Parameters4/5

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

Schema coverage is 67%, and the description explains the two most important parameters: id controls the action vs listing mode, and on:false reverses the star. The user_id parameter is left to its schema description, so the description adds good but not complete semantic coverage.

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?

The description states a specific verb and resource: starring a shared preset for this account. It also explains the inverse operation and the listing mode, though it does not explicitly differentiate itself from siblings such as preset_collection or find_presets.

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 gives clear usage context for both modes: use id to star/unstar, and omit id to list starred presets. It does not name alternatives or when-not-to-use cases, so it falls just short of full routing guidance.

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