Deploy Edge Compute

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=false and openWorldHint=true, consistent with the [WRITE] tag, so no annotation is contradicted. But the description adds nothing about deployment behavior - whether it is synchronous, what side effects occur, whether redeployment replaces an existing compute, or what auth is needed - which is a gap for an open-world write tool.

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?

A single front-loaded line with the [WRITE] marker and endpoint first, then parameters. There is no filler, though the terse API-doc style sacrifices explanatory value for brevity.

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?

For a mutating, open-world tool with no output schema and 0% schema description coverage, the description is too thin - it omits deployment semantics, side effects, and return expectations. It conveys only the endpoint shape and parameter list.

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 0%, so the description must compensate, and it does enumerate all four parameters with required (name, bundled_code) vs optional (namespace, tag) marked. That said, the required/optional split duplicates the schema's 'required' array, and it gives no meaning for what bundled_code or namespace represent, so it only partially fills the gap.

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 verb 'deploy' plus the resource 'edge compute' identifies the operation, and the [WRITE] marker plus the POST endpoint are useful. However, it never explains what deploying an edge compute actually is or how it differs from siblings like create_edge_route, list_edge_computes, or get_edge_deployment, so the purpose is only minimally distinguished.

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?

There is no when-to-use guidance at all, no prerequisites, and no reference to alternatives despite a large sibling set containing list_edge_computes, get_edge_compute, and various create_* tools. The description reads as an endpoint stub rather than a usage instruction.

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