scheduler_clear_all

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

No annotations, and description only says 'Remove all scheduled tasks' without disclosing irreversible effects, permissions needed, or impact. Lacks transparency for a destructive operation.

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?

Extremely concise single sentence with helpful '[scheduler]' prefix. No wasted words.

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?

Minimal description for a destructive tool with no parameters and an output schema. Does not mention return value or safety considerations.

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?

No parameters in input schema, so no need to explain beyond the schema. Description adds no parameter info, but none needed.

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?

Description clearly states 'Remove all scheduled tasks' with a specific verb and resource, and distinguishes from siblings like scheduler_cancel_task (cancel specific) and scheduler_list_scheduled (list).

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?

No guidance on when to use this tool vs alternatives like scheduler_cancel_task or safe usage. No warnings about destructiveness.

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