Splashtop Uninstall

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

Annotations already indicate destructiveness and idempotence. The description adds context by specifying what is destroyed ('registration + attended-access setting') and emphasizes permanence, providing useful behavioral details beyond the annotations.

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 sentence that is clear and to the point. It could possibly be more concise, but it is effective without unnecessary 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?

While the description covers the tool's core purpose and annotations provide safety info, it lacks usage guidelines and parameter explanations. For a destructive operation, more guidance on prerequisites or effect is expected.

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%, and the description does not explain any of the three parameters (device_uuid, os_family, request_id). Without parameter details, the agent cannot determine how to correctly invoke the tool.

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 the verb 'Uninstall' and the resource 'Splashtop RMM client', and specifies what is deleted (registration and attended-access setting). It distinguishes from siblings like splashtop_install and splashtop_get_attended_access by focusing on removal.

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 explicit guidance on when to use this tool compared to alternatives like disabling or updating. The word 'Permanent' implies irreversibility but does not provide context for selection among sibling tools (e.g., splashtop_force_disconnect).

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