by CameronFoxly

export_session

Export your ASCII art project as an .asciimtn session file to load in the Ascii-Motion app.

Instructions

Export the project as an .asciimtn session file (can be loaded by Ascii-Motion app).

Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description bears full responsibility. It mentions the output format but does not disclose behavioral details like whether the file is overwritten, if it's a read-only operation, or any side effects. Basic intent is clear, but lacks depth.

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

Conciseness5/5

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

A single, concise sentence that conveys essential information without unnecessary words. Front-loaded with the action and resource.

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

Completeness3/5

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

For a simple export tool with one parameter and no output schema, the description covers the basic purpose but omits details about return behavior (e.g., success indication or error responses). Adequate but not exhaustive.

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

Parameters3/5

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

The schema covers 100% of parameters with descriptions. The tool description adds minimal value beyond the schema (e.g., specifying the file extension and app context). Baseline 3 is appropriate.

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

Purpose5/5

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

The description clearly states the verb 'export', the resource 'project', and the specific output format '.asciimtn session file', distinguishing it from sibling export tools like export_ansi, export_image, etc.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

The description implies the tool is for exporting a session file for use with the Ascii-Motion app, but it does not explicitly state when to prefer this over other exports or provide when-not-to-use scenarios.

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