B3/5.0

Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already disclose destructive=true and non-read-only, while the description adds 'prepared change' and emphasizes 'complete expected_changes', hinting at a guarded mutation. It still does not explain that this enables status, what is irreversible, or what the digest protects against. It does not contradict annotations.

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?

The description is a single front-loaded sentence with no filler. Its density creates ambiguity around the alternative flows, but it is not verbose.

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 destructive confirm tool with six parameters and minimal schema descriptions, one sentence is not enough: it omits prerequisites, the exact state change, how expected_changes/digest must be sourced, and the role of connection_context. The output schema reduces return-value burden, but invocation context remains thin.

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?

With only 17% schema coverage, the description is important: it names customer_id, draft_id, approval_ref, expected_plan_digest, and expected_changes, and indicates pairing. It leaves connection_context unexplained, and the 'or' wording is ambiguous because customer_id is required in the schema.

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 states a specific verb, 'Confirm', and an object, 'a prepared change', but it never says the change is enabling an entity's status; that only comes from the tool name. Many sibling *_confirm tools could fit the same sentence, so sibling differentiation is weak.

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 distinguishes two invocation shapes (customer_id + draft_id vs approval_ref + expected_plan_digest with expected_changes), which is useful. However, it does not say when to call this instead of google_ads_status_enable_prepare, pause_confirm, or management_confirm, nor does it state prerequisites or exclusions.

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