Conceal jump cuts

conceal_jump_cuts

Reports same-shot jump cuts and their existing visual coverage without modifying the edit in report mode. The scale-step mode can apply hard, nonanimated framing steps to selected jumps.

TDQS

B3.1/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already flag readOnlyHint=false and destructiveHint=false, and the description usefully adds that report mode leaves the edit untouched while scale-step applies "hard, nonanimated" framing — real behavioural context. It still omits how jumps are selected for modification, what the "off" mode does, and whether applied steps are reversible or re-runnable (idempotentHint is false but unaddressed).

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?

Two tightly written sentences, with the non-mutating behaviour front-loaded before the mutating mode. Nothing is redundant, though the second sentence's "can apply" phrasing is slightly hedged for a mode that performs the actual edit.

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?

This is a mode-switched tool that can both inspect and mutate a timeline, with no output schema and 75% of its parameters undocumented. The description explains the mode split but leaves the selection input, the step magnitude, and the report's contents unexplained — not enough for an agent to invoke scale-step confidently.

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?

Schema coverage is only 25%, with just project_id documented, so the description must carry the other three parameters. It names the report and scale-step modes but never explains "off", never says what the `at` array denotes (positions? timestamps? jump indices?), and gives no units, defaults, or bounds for `step`.

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 specific verb and resource ("Reports same-shot jump cuts and their existing visual coverage") and distinguishes two operating modes, report and scale-step. An agent can tell this apart from neighbours like find_shots or suggest_match_cuts, though it never names those alternatives directly.

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 implies when each mode applies: report mode for inspection without touching the edit, scale-step mode when the agent wants to actually apply framing steps. There is no explicit when-not guidance, no prerequisites, and no routing advice versus siblings such as punch_in_on_emphasis or add_zoom, so the selection logic is only partially inferable.

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