Hand results back

confirm_release_results
DestructiveIdempotent

Releases results exactly as specified by the owner-bound previewId, subject to explicit teacher approval of that specific preview. Release cannot be reversed.

Tool call template

Replace each placeholder with a value matching the input schema. Only required parameters are included; add optional parameters as needed.

{
  "id": 1,
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "arguments": {
      "previewId": "<previewId>"
    },
    "name": "confirm_release_results"
  }
}

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
previewIdYesThe previewId from the matching prepare_ tool, after the teacher said yes to that preview.

Output Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault

TDQS

A3.9/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare destructiveHint=true, idempotentHint=true, and readOnlyHint=false. The description adds genuinely new context by stating 'Release cannot be reversed', which qualifies the irreversibility beyond the destructive flag, and reiterates the teacher-approval gate. It does not disclose rate limits or downstream effects, but it usefully supplements the annotation profile.

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 compact sentences with the action and the binding identifier front-loaded, followed by the approval condition and irreversibility warning. 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 destructive, non-reversible mutation with rich annotations and an output schema, the description covers the action, the gate, and the irreversibility. It is sufficient; only the explicit link to prepare_release_results as the preceding step is missing.

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 100% and the schema already documents previewId's origin and length constraints, so the baseline is 3. The description adds a meaningful nuance by calling the previewId 'owner-bound', signaling scoping/authorization semantics not present in the schema.

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 ('releases results') tied to a specific resource and keyed identifier ('owner-bound previewId'), which is clearly distinct from the sibling prepare_release_results. It does not explicitly name the sibling, but the action is unambiguous.

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?

It states a precondition ('subject to explicit teacher approval of that specific preview'), which implies this is a post-approval step, and the parameter description references the 'matching prepare_ tool'. However, it never explicitly says to use prepare_release_results first or names any exclusion, leaving the routing largely to inference.

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