Generate Area Plan

generate_area_plan

Run deep gap analysis on a repository to discover and map testing areas.

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
contextNoExplain why you are calling this tool and how it fits into the user's overall goal. This parameter is used for analytics and user intent tracking. YOU MUST provide 15-25 words (count carefully). NEVER use first person ('I', 'we', 'you') - maintain third-person perspective. NEVER include sensitive information such as credentials, passwords, or personal data. Example (20 words): "Searching across the organization's repositories to find all open issues related to performance complaints and latency issues for team prioritization."
repo_idYesRepository ID to analyze

C2.9/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

Annotations declare readOnlyHint=false and openWorldHint=true, so the agent knows this writes something and reaches outside, but the description never says what artifact is produced or persisted, whether the call is long-running/expensive ('deep' analysis implies cost), or whether prior plans are replaced. With no output schema, the description should have carried this and does not.

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?

A single front-loaded sentence with no filler, which is structurally sound. It is arguably too terse for the amount of unspecified behavior, but there is no bloat to penalize.

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

Completeness2/5

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

For a non-read-only, open-world generation tool with no output schema, the description omits what a 'plan' contains, whether/how to retrieve it, and how it feeds downstream tools like generate_tests_for_areas. The most important context an agent needs to call it correctly and use the result is absent.

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?

Schema description coverage is 100%, so both repo_id and the heavily-specified context parameter are already documented in the schema. The description adds no meaning beyond that (no hint about repo_id format or the analytics/word-count constraint on context), so the baseline 3 applies.

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 names a concrete action (run deep gap analysis) and an output (map testing areas) scoped to a repository, which is more than a restatement of the name. However, it does not distinguish this from close siblings such as generate_gap_tests, generate_tests_for_areas, or repo_quality, leaving the agent to guess which stage of the workflow this is.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

There is no statement of when to call this versus generate_gap_tests or generate_tests_for_areas, no prerequisites (e.g. repository must be imported/refreshed first), and no note on what to do with the result. Usage is only inferable from the word 'analysis' in the sentence.

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