solknife_change_authority_build

Build an unsigned change-authority tx: transfer the mint and/or freeze authority to newAuthority. The new authority is pinned in the tx the client verifies before signing.

A3.7/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

No annotations provided, so description carries burden. Discloses it builds an unsigned transaction (no on-chain effect) and that new authority is pinned for verification. But doesn't mention authorization requirements (must be current authority) or that it's a Solana transaction structure.

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

Conciseness5/5

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

Two concise sentences, front-loaded with purpose. No wasted words. Each sentence adds necessary information.

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?

Given 5 required params, no output schema, and medium complexity, the description covers core purpose but misses details like return format (unsigned transaction), what 'pinned' means, or that this is a Solana-specific tool. Adequate but not comprehensive.

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?

Schema coverage is 100% so baseline is 3. Description adds context that changeMint/changeFreeze booleans control which authority transfers, but otherwise doesn't significantly augment schema descriptions. Marginal added value.

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

Purpose5/5

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

Description clearly states it builds an unsigned change-authority transaction for transferring mint/freeze authority. Verb 'build', resource 'unsigned change-authority tx', and purpose are specific. Distinguished from siblings like solknife_change_authority_execute (execute) and solknife_change_authority_read (read).

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?

Implies usage for changing authorities but lacks explicit when-to-use vs alternatives like revoke_authority_build. No prerequisites or context about when this tool is appropriate versus others. Minimal guidance.

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