C2.4/5.0

Behavior2/5

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

Annotations already declare destructiveHint=true and openWorldHint=false, so the risk profile is technically covered. The description adds nothing on top: it doesn't say the confirm executes an irreversible mutation against the Google Ads account, that it requires a draft created by apply_prepare, or how a failed/invalid draft is handled. With annotations present the bar is lower, but zero added context on a destructive action still warrants a low score.

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

Conciseness3/5

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

One short sentence, front-loaded and free of waste, but its brevity is under-specification rather than economy. There is no structure to speak of and no information to sequence.

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?

An output schema exists, so return values needn't be described, but for a destructive confirm tool the description leaves out the prerequisite draft, the irreversibility of the action, and any notion of prerequisites or side effects. An agent cannot call this safely or correctly on the description alone.

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 description coverage is only 33% — customer_id is documented in the schema, but draft_id and connection_context are not. The description's single word "draft" echoes the draft_id parameter name without explaining its origin, format, or expected lifecycle state, and says nothing about connection_context.

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

Purpose3/5

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

The description gives a verb ("Confirm") and an object ("an apply-recommendation draft"), which is enough to separate it from the dismiss_confirm sibling. However, it is essentially the tool name restated as a sentence, with no statement of what confirming actually does or what entity is affected.

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?

No when-to-use guidance, no mention of the preceding google_ads_recommendation_apply_prepare step that presumably produces the draft_id, and no exclusions. The agent must infer the prepare-then-confirm sequencing entirely from the sibling tool names.

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