vsz_update_wlan

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It only lists parameters and says 'Update WLAN configuration' without disclosing side effects, whether omitted fields are preserved, required permissions, or error behavior. It lacks behavioral details beyond the basic 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?

The description is a single action line followed by a clean, front-loaded parameter list. Every line earns its place, providing necessary semantics with no fluff.

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?

The description is adequate for a simple update tool, but it lacks prerequisites, behavior on partial updates, and any note about return values (though output schema exists). It doesn't fully cover what the agent needs to anticipate when invoking the tool.

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 coverage is 0%, so the description must add meaning. It does so by explaining each parameter (e.g., host as controller IP, zone_id as UUID, name as New WLAN name). The 'New' prefix clarifies that these are updated values, but it doesn't discuss optionality or default null behavior beyond what the schema already provides.

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?

The description clearly states 'Update WLAN configuration' with a specific verb and resource. It differentiates from siblings like create_wlan, delete_wlan, and get_wlan by implying modification of an existing WLAN.

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?

The description implies use when modifying an existing WLAN but provides no explicit guidance on prerequisites (e.g., zone_id and wlan_id must exist) or when not to use it. It doesn't name any alternatives or exclusions.

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