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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=false, idempotentHint=true, destructiveHint=false, openWorldHint=false, so the safety profile is partly covered. The description adds meaningful context beyond that: it is strictly project-scoped to the explicit project_id and returns the project identity with its result. It notably does not explain what happens to unresolvable ids, though the idempotent and non-destructive hints make the "Remove" wording coherent rather than contradictory.

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?

Two compact sentences with no filler. The main purpose is relegated to the second sentence in favor of the PROJECT-SCOPED warning, which is defensible as a guardrail but slightly delays the core statement an agent is scanning for.

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?

With no output schema, the description helpfully states that the project identity is returned with the result, and it discloses the scoping rule. Combined with annotations, an agent can invoke it correctly; only edge-case behavior (unknown ids, partial failures) is undisclosed.

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 coverage is 50%: project_id is well documented in the schema, while ids has none. The description partially compensates by saying removal is "by id" and stressing the explicit project_id scope, but it never clarifies what the ids array should contain (grade window ids, finish ids, or both). Baseline 3 is appropriate.

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?

States a specific verb ("Remove") and resource ("grade windows and finishes"), which is enough to separate it from the many remove_* siblings like remove_zoom or remove_stylize. It does not explicitly name a sibling or contrast the scope, so it stops short of top marks.

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 removal action implies the usage context (use it to delete an existing finish/grade window), but there is no explicit when-to-use, no preconditions, and no routing to an alternative such as add_finish or reset_edit. The only constraint given is the project-scoping note, which is scope rather than usage guidance.

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