add_text

Destructive

Inserts single-line text labels like tags, dimensions, or notes into AutoCAD drawings, letting you set insertion point, height, rotation, and layer.

Instructions

Adiciona texto de linha única. QUANDO USAR: rótulos curtos (TAG, cota, nota).

Parâmetros: text, point (inserção), height (> 0, unidade do desenho), rotation (GRAUS), layer. Exemplo: add_text("PS-101", [1250, 830], 3.5, layer="TEXTO").

TDQS

A3.8/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=false and destructiveHint=true, so the write/destructive profile is covered. The description adds no behavioral context beyond that — no mention of undo impact, layer-creation side effects, or overwrite behavior — but it is consistent with the annotations, so the lower bar applies.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

Well front-loaded: purpose first, then when-to-use, then parameters, then example. Dense but each element earns its place; the parameter list is slightly terse but not wasteful.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

An output schema exists, so return values need not be described. For a mutating text-creation tool the description covers purpose, usage condition, all five parameters, and an example, leaving only minor gaps around coordinate conventions and layer auto-creation.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 0%, so the description must carry the burden, and it does: it labels point as insertion, height as >0 in drawing units, rotation in DEGREES, and layer, plus a concrete call example. It does not clarify the point's coordinate dimensionality/order beyond the example.

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

Purpose4/5

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

States a specific verb and resource: 'Adiciona texto de linha única' (adds single-line text). The 'linha única' qualifier implicitly distinguishes it from the multiline sibling add_mtext, though that sibling is never named explicitly.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

'QUANDO USAR: rótulos curtos (TAG, cota, nota)' gives an explicit when-to-use condition with concrete examples. It lacks a when-not clause or a named alternative (e.g., use add_mtext for multiline), so it stops short of full routing guidance.

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