Redeploy App

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

Annotations already declare destructiveHint=true and readOnlyHint=false, so the description does not need to establish mutability. The parenthetical 'refresh code + roll pods' adds some behavioral detail, though it does not describe side effects, downtime, or reversibility.

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 front-loaded sentence with no filler. The core action and mechanism are stated compactly, and every word earns its place.

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 destructive operation with four parameters, no output schema, and several closely related sibling tools, the description is too sparse. It does not clarify required identifiers, environment/region behavior, or how this differs from deployApp and rollbackDeploy.

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 provides no parameter-level guidance. It does not explain workspaceSlug, appSlug, env, or region, leaving the agent to rely solely on the schema field names and the single enum.

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 uses a clear verb and resource ('Redeploy an app') and adds a useful parenthetical ('refresh code + roll pods') that conveys the operational mechanism. It does not explicitly differentiate from sibling tools like deployApp or rollbackDeploy, which prevents a 5.

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 gives no explicit guidance about when to use redeployApp versus deployApp, rollbackDeploy, or listDeploys. The word 'redeploy' implies an existing app, but the context is not stated and no alternatives are mentioned.

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