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

With no annotations, the description carries the full burden. It usefully discloses the intended call context and that it operates on a batch of assets, but says nothing about required permissions, whether status changes are reversible, what 'reset' (pending) implies for downstream review state, or how note/editId affect the outcome.

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 sentences, front-loaded with the action verb and resource, with no padding. The second sentence is longer than needed but still earns its place by explaining the intended agent workflow.

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?

No annotations and no output schema, so the description must cover behavior; it covers the workflow trigger well but omits permission requirements, side effects on review state, and any mention of the aggregate status returned when editId is supplied.

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 description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents all five parameters including the status enum. The description adds only loose mapping ('approve, reject, or reset' → approved/rejected/pending) and never mentions editId or its aggregate-status behavior, so it does not exceed baseline.

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?

Names a specific action set (approve, reject, reset) on a specific resource (assets) with batch scope (one or more). It is distinguishable from neighbors like request_asset_review and check_asset_status, though it does not explicitly name them to sharpen the boundary.

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?

Gives a clear calling condition: invoke after presenting inline asset images/descriptions and receiving user approval or revision feedback, and as a substitute for sending the user into Sequencer. No explicit when-not conditions or named alternative tools, so it stops short of a 5.

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