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

Annotations (readOnlyHint=false, destructiveHint=false) indicate a non-read-only operation, and the description adds the meanings of RESOLVE and IGNORE. But there is no disclosure of downstream side effects: whether RESOLVE affects replay/statistics, whether IGNORE is reversible, or whether the action is idempotent. For a state-changing tool with neutral destructiveHint, the description should explain consequences.

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

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

Single sentence, front-loaded with the verb and the two action options. No filler; every word contributes.

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

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

For a simple two-parameter action the description is mostly sufficient, but it does not state side effects (e.g., whether RESOLVE affects statistics or downstream replay/decision behavior) or whether actions are reversible. Given no output schema and generic annotations, a bit more behavioral context would round it out.

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

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

Schema already covers both required params and one enum. The description adds semantic meaning to the enum values — 'mark as manually fixed' vs 'skip intentionally' — which helps an agent choose the correct action. It also clarifies the log scope (single failure log) which disambiguates the logId parameter's granularity.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description names a clear verb and resource: process a single failure log, with the two specific actions RESOLVE and IGNORE. It distinguishes this from sibling tools in the lexq_logs_* family by emphasizing 'single' log processing. However, it doesn't explicitly contrast with lexq_logs_bulk_action or lexq_logs_get, so it's strong but not fully differentiated.

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

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

The phrase 'Process a single failure log' implies this is for one log at a time, which lightly separates it from the bulk sibling. However, there is no explicit guidance on when to choose RESOLVE vs IGNORE, when to prefer this over lexq_logs_bulk_action, or any exclusions.

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