request_test

Idempotent

Create a paid human usability test request for a public website you own or are authorized to test. Up to three tasks, desktop or mobile. Creates an unpaid request; payment is a separate step. Requires authorization and a stable idempotency_key. Does not complete immediately: a real human performs the test.

A3.6/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already cover safety (readOnlyHint=false, destructiveHint=false) and idempotency; the description goes beyond them by disclosing that the operation is asynchronous ('Does not complete immediately: a real human performs the test') and that payment is deferred to a separate step. Authorization requirements are also surfaced. It does not say what the call returns (a request id, presumably), which keeps it from a 5.

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?

Four short sentences, front-loaded with the action and scope, then constraints, then the async caveat. Every sentence carries information, though the opening 'paid' versus later 'unpaid request' phrasing costs a moment of re-reading.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness3/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a mutating, asynchronous, 5-parameter tool with no output schema and 20% schema coverage, the description covers the big operational risks (async, payment, authorization, idempotency). It leaves the response shape and the purpose of `context` unexplained, which an agent would need in order to call it 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 description coverage is only 20%, so the description must carry the load, and it does not. 'Up to three tasks', 'desktop or mobile', and the stable idempotency_key merely restate schema facts, while the `context` parameter is never explained in either place, and `url` formatting constraints appear only in the schema.

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 gives a concrete verb and resource ('Create a paid human usability test request') plus scope ('public website you own or are authorized to test'), which is far more specific than the bare name request_test. It does not name any sibling, but the sibling set (get_test, get_checkout, get_service, join_waitlist) is functionally distinct, so ambiguity is low.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

It states clear preconditions for use: you must own or be authorized to test the site, up to three tasks, desktop or mobile. It also clarifies the payment model ('Creates an unpaid request; payment is a separate step'), which prevents an agent from assuming this single call finishes the job. No alternative tool is named, 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.
