Server Quality Checklist
Latest release: v0.1.0
- Disambiguation2/5
The toolset includes both specific getter/setter methods and generic fmod_get_property/fmod_set_property, plus fmod_add_relationship/fmod_remove_relationship, leading to multiple ways to achieve similar results. Additionally, there are aliases for console logging (console vs system). This will confuse an agent.
Naming Consistency3/5Most tools follow the pattern fmod_Entity_method, but there are deviations like fmod_create_event and fmod_describe_class. Also, some methods use camelCase (getAbsoluteAssetPath) while others use underscores (add_relationship), creating inconsistency.
Tool Count1/5With 155 tools, the set is extremely large for an MCP server. This overwhelms an agent, making tool selection difficult. Typical well-scoped servers have 3-15 tools; this is an order of magnitude larger.
Completeness4/5The toolset covers a vast range of FMOD functionality including assets, events, banks, parameters, automation, UI, and window management. However, there are gaps like no direct tool for creating banks (only via relationships) and some operations only accessible through generic set_property.
Average 3/5 across 155 of 155 tools scored. Lowest: 1.3/5.

How is the quality score calculated?
The overall quality score combines two components: Tool Definition Quality (70%) and Server Coherence (30%).
Tool Definition Quality measures how well each tool describes itself to AI agents. Every tool is scored 1–5 across six dimensions: Purpose Clarity (25%), Usage Guidelines (20%), Behavioral Transparency (20%), Parameter Semantics (15%), Conciseness & Structure (10%), and Contextual Completeness (10%). The server-level definition quality score is calculated as 60% mean TDQS + 40% minimum TDQS, so a single poorly described tool pulls the score down.
Server Coherence evaluates how well the tools work together as a set, scoring four dimensions equally: Disambiguation (can agents tell tools apart?), Naming Consistency, Tool Count Appropriateness, and Completeness (are there gaps in the tool surface?).
Tiers are derived from the overall score: A (≥3.5), B (≥3.0), C (≥2.0), D (≥1.0), F (<1.0). B and above is considered passing.
Tool Scores
- Behavior1/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, and the description does not disclose behavioral traits such as idempotency, side effects (e.g., file permission changes), or required permissions. The input schema hints at read/write via omitting 'value', but the description does not confirm this.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness2/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is short but confusing and poorly structured. It leads with a definition of an enumeration rather than the tool's action, which wastes the first sentence without adding value for tool selection.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness1/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool has a single parameter with get/set behavior, the description does not explain what property is being accessed, what the return value is, or how the enumeration values are used. It is fundamentally incomplete for effective tool use.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The description adds no meaning beyond the input schema. The schema already documents 'value' as optional for read vs write. The description's mention of 'Possible values are: [property · system.permission]' is vague and incomplete; it does not list actual enumeration options.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose1/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description states 'An enumeration used with studio.system.File.setPermissions()' but fails to specify what the tool itself does. It is tautological with the tool name and does not describe the tool as a getter/setter of a permission property. No verb+resource is provided.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines1/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus siblings like fmod_get_property or fmod_set_property. The description does not mention any context, prerequisites, or alternatives.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior1/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
The description only mentions returning data, but the optional 'value' parameter implies potential write behavior (setting a property). This side effect is not disclosed. Without annotations, the description fails to convey the full behavioral scope.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness1/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single sentence repeated twice, with a cryptic tag at the end. It is not concise and contains redundancy.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness1/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
No output schema, and the description only vaguely mentions 'property description objects' without specifying their structure. The tool's dual nature (read/write) is not explained, leaving the agent underinformed.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, so the parameter descriptions exist, but the description adds no meaning about how 'value' interacts with the returned array. The relationship between reading properties and assigning a value is unclear.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose2/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description states it returns an array of property description objects, but the input schema includes a 'value' parameter for assigning a new value, which is unexplained. The purpose is ambiguous: is it read-only or read-write? The duplicate sentence adds no value.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines1/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus siblings like fmod_get_property or fmod_set_property. The description does not differentiate the tool's role.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior1/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations and the description does not disclose any behavioral traits (e.g., side effects, permissions). Simply states it's an enumeration.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness2/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is very short but fails to be informative. It lacks structure and is not front-loaded with essential information.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness1/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the simplicity of the tool, the description should clearly explain its purpose and behavior. It falls short, leaving the agent confused.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100% and the parameter description ('New value to assign. Omit to read.') is clear. However, the tool description adds no value and even conflicts with the parameter semantics.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose2/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description states it's an enumeration used with triggerAction, but does not clarify what the tool itself does (e.g., list actions, set an action?). The purpose is vague and does not specify the action it performs.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines1/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like fmod_window_triggerAction. No context for usage.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior1/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
The description claims the property is 'constant', but the schema allows writing via the optional 'value' parameter. This contradiction is misleading. Additionally, no information about permissions, side effects, or return values is provided. Annotations are absent, so the description should fully disclose behavior.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single sentence with a tag, which is concise but lacks important details. It is front-loaded but insufficiently informative for an AI agent to use correctly.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given no output schema and low complexity (2 params), the description is incomplete. It does not explain the behavior when setting the value (if writing is intended), nor does it describe what the tool returns on read. Missing critical behavioral context.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3. The description adds no additional meaning beyond the schema's parameter descriptions. It does not elaborate on when to use the 'value' parameter or clarify the 'className' usage.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose3/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description states it is a constant boolean value indicating singleton status, but does not explicitly state the tool's action (read/write). The schema includes an optional 'value' parameter for writing, creating ambiguity. It is clear that it relates to entity singleton property but lacks a verb.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines1/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus sibling tools like fmod_entity_isAbstract or fmod_entity_isGlobal. The description does not differentiate it from other entity property tools.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior1/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
The description contradicts the schema: it describes a callback but the schema indicates read/write property behavior. No annotations exist to clarify. This is misleading.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is short but includes ambiguous phrasing and a bracket reference. It is concise but not clear.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
The description fails to resolve the property vs callback ambiguity. Given the complexity and lack of output schema, it is incomplete.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, so the parameter is documented. But the description adds no extra meaning beyond the schema. Baseline score of 3 applies.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose2/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description says it's a callback for when a build completes, but the input schema expects a value (string/number/boolean) to assign, suggesting it's a settable property. This contradiction makes the purpose unclear.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool instead of its connect/disconnect siblings. The description does not mention alternatives or proper usage context.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are present. The description does not disclose behaviors such as error handling, side effects, or whether the file must exist, which is insufficient for a tool that likely interacts with the filesystem.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness2/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is very short but is poorly structured and contains a fragmented phrase. It is not concise in a useful way; it omits necessary information.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given no output schema, the description should explain the return object more thoroughly. It mentions a File object but provides no further details. Incomplete for a tool with one parameter and no annotations.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters1/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The parameter 'filePath' has no description in the schema (0% coverage) and the tool description adds no additional meaning. The types include number and boolean, which is unusual for a file path, but the description does not clarify.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose3/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description states it returns a File object for a given filePath, indicating the verb and resource. However, the description is garbled with an incomplete phrase 'Returns a studio. [method · system.getFile]', making it unclear.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. Sibling tools exist but no comparison is provided.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior1/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description must disclose behavioral traits, but it only says 'Logs a message.' It does not mention return values, side effects, or logging destination, which is insufficient for safe invocation.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness2/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is extremely short but lacks necessary information, making it under-specified rather than concise. It fails to earn its place by not adding value beyond the tool name.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness1/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given no output schema and numerous sibling logging tools, the description is incomplete. It does not cover return values, logging behavior, or how it differs from similar tools, leaving significant gaps for agent understanding.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters1/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 0% and the description adds no meaning to the 'msg' parameter beyond its type. It fails to explain expected format, accepted values, or behavior with different types.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description states 'Logs a message,' which clearly indicates the verb and resource. However, it does not differentiate from many sibling logging tools like fmod_console_log or fmod_system_message, so purpose is clear but not distinctive.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives. There is no mention of context, prerequisites, or exclusions, leaving the agent without decision-making support.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided. The description mentions 'callback' and 'property', but does not clarify behavior (e.g., whether reading returns current value, setting assigns a callback function or a value). Inconsistency between description and parameter semantics.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is short, but lacks clarity. Conciseness is acceptable, but the structure does not effectively convey the tool's role.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given no output schema and the existence of related connect/disconnect tools, the description is incomplete. It does not explain the relationship to sibling tools or the full behavior (e.g., is it a property that fires callbacks?).
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The parameter description 'New value to assign. Omit to read the current value.' adds basic usage info, but does not explain what the value represents in the context of a build started callback. Schema coverage is 100%, so the description does not need to add much, but could be more specific.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose2/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description is ambiguous: it says 'callback that will be fired' but the parameter schema implies it can be read or assigned a value. It does not clearly state whether this tool is for reading/writing a property or handling an event.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus connecting/disconnecting callbacks (sibling tools). The description does not help an agent decide to use this over alternatives.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description should disclose behavioral traits. It mentions a default filter value but does not cover side effects, error handling, permissions, or whether the operation is read-only. The repeated sentence adds no new information.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness2/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is repetitive, with the first sentence appearing twice. A code reference like '[method · system.readDir]' is unhelpful. The text could be shortened to one clear sentence without redundancy.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given two required parameters, no output schema, and no annotations, the description is incomplete. It does not explain the format of the returned string array, how filters work, or what filePath should be. References to an external enum are insufficient.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 0%, and the description adds minimal value. It explains that readDirFiltersFlag is an enum with a default, but does not list enum options or clarify filePath format. It refers to an external enum without providing details.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose3/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description states it returns a string array based on filters from a filePath, suggesting a directory read operation. However, it is vague about what exactly is returned and does not clearly differentiate from sibling tools like fmod_system_getFile or fmod_system_getText. Repetition reduces clarity.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus other file-related tools. The description only explains default behavior but does not specify prerequisites, context, or alternatives.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided. The description does not disclose that the tool can both read and write the orientation value; this information is only in the schema parameter description.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Short and to the point, but omits critical information about the tool's functionality. Could be improved without adding length.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a tool with no output schema and no annotations, the description should explicitly state that it can read or set the orientation. It fails to do so, leaving the agent underinformed.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% for the single parameter. The description adds a reference to 'ui.orientation' for possible values, but this is vague. Baseline 3 is appropriate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose2/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description says it represents an orientation but does not specify whether it gets or sets the value. The schema implies both actions via the optional parameter, but the description lacks a clear verb+resource structure.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus siblings like fmod_ui_alignment. The description does not provide context for differentiation.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It fails to disclose that the tool reads or modifies the widgetType property, has no side effects, or requires any specific conditions. The description is too minimal to inform the agent about behavioral traits.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is short (one sentence) but it is not optimally concise because it fails to include essential information. It is adequate in length but lacks clarity.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given that there is no output schema and only one parameter, the description should clearly explain the tool's purpose as a getter/setter. It does not, leaving the agent with insufficient context to understand its full functionality.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The single parameter 'value' is well-described in the schema ('New value to assign. Omit to read the current value.'). The tool description adds no additional meaning, but since schema coverage is 100%, a score of 3 is appropriate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose2/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description says it's an enumeration of widget types but doesn't state that the tool gets or sets the widgetType property of a UI widget. The schema implies a getter/setter via the optional 'value' parameter, but the description is unclear and could mislead the agent into thinking it's just a static enum lookup.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus sibling tools like fmod_ui_alignment or fmod_ui_layoutType. The description does not differentiate it from other UI property tools or explain its context.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Provides return value indication but no annotations exist. Lacks disclosure of side effects, permissions, or what constitutes success/failure. For a mutation tool, more behavioral context is needed.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Short but includes an unnecessary cryptic reference '[method · menu.addMenuItem]'. The return value statement is implicit. Could be more focused on essential parameter info.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
With no output schema and minimal annotations, the description fails to provide complete context. Parameter semantics are critically missing, and the tool's role in the FMOD ecosystem is not clarified beyond the name.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters1/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 0%, and the single parameter named 'required' has no description. The description says 'based on the description object' but does not explain what structure or values are expected, leaving the agent without necessary guidance.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
States it registers a menu item under the 'Scripts' menu, which is a specific verb+resource. Differentiates from sibling tools like fmod_menu_removeMenuItem and fmod_menu_menuItems. However, the phrasing 'based on the description object' is vague and doesn't clarify what the input should be.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use versus alternatives like fmod_menu_menuItems or fmod_menu_removeMenuItem. No prerequisites or context about the 'Scripts' menu registration process.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations exist, so the description must convey behavioral traits. It only says 'Logs an error' but does not explain what happens, side effects, or whether it is persistent. This is insufficient for full transparency.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is very short and front-loaded, but lacks structure and omits critical details. While concise, it sacrifices essential information, making it barely adequate.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's simplicity (one parameter, no output schema), the description should explain usage and parameter context. It does not, leaving the agent with insufficient information to use the tool correctly.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters1/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema has 0% description coverage, and the tool description does not mention the 'msg' parameter at all. It fails to add any meaning beyond the schema, leaving the agent without guidance on what to provide.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states 'Logs an error', which is a specific verb and resource. It also includes a tag indicating it's a method for system error. However, it does not differentiate from sibling tools like fmod_console_error or fmod_system_warn.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives, nor any conditions or prerequisites. The description is minimal and lacks any usage context.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. It does not disclose behavioral traits such as persistence, effect on subsequent calls, or validation of the 'value' parameter. The bitwise OR mention is useful but incomplete.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Single sentence, efficient and front-loaded. However, it could be more concise by focusing on the tool's action rather than enumerating the enumeration details.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
No output schema, so description should explain return values or side effects. It does not mention what reading returns (enumeration value? current filter combination?). Lacks completeness for a simple property get/set tool.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% with a parameter description. The tool description adds context about the enumeration and bitwise OR, but does not list valid values. Baseline 3 is appropriate as schema does the heavy lifting.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose2/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description defines the tool as an enumeration used with another function, but does not state the tool's own action (get/set). It focuses on the enumeration type rather than the tool's purpose.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool vs alternatives, or when to set vs get. The description does not differentiate it from sibling tools like fmod_system_readDir. The parameter schema implies omit to read, but no explicit when-to-use.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
The description lacks details on permissions, side effects, or error behavior. The inconsistency between the mentioned 'fileName' parameter and the empty input schema undermines transparency.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is brief but includes an incomplete example ('For example:'). It could be improved by removing the misleading parameter reference and completing the example.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Despite no output schema, the description mentions the return type. However, the missing parameter definition and lack of behavioral context make it incomplete for a tool that loads external files.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters1/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema has no parameters (100% coverage), yet the description references a 'fileName' parameter that does not exist. This misleads the AI agent.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool loads a JavaScript file as a library and returns the module object or null. However, it mentions a 'fileName' parameter despite the input schema having no properties, which introduces confusion.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. There is no mention of prerequisites, conditions, or exclusions.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided; description only states 'asynchronous' and 'Returns a studio'. Does not disclose permissions, side effects, or behavior beyond async.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Single sentence plus fragment, but wastes space with unclear 'Returns a studio' and technical reference. Could be more informative in similar length.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For 2 required params with no output schema or annotations, the description is insufficient. It does not explain the return value or how to handle the async process.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters1/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 0% and description contradicts schema: it says processOptions is an object {workingDir, args}, but schema defines it as string/number/boolean. pathToExecutable has no description.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description clearly states 'Runs an external asynchronous process', identifying the verb and resource. It includes a reference to the method name, but could better distinguish from sibling fmod_system_start.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like fmod_system_start. The async nature is mentioned but no context for appropriate usage.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It only states that it logs a verbose message but does not disclose side effects, output format, or any behavioral traits beyond the basic action.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is extremely concise with one sentence and a bracketed annotation. While not verbose, it is minimal and provides no additional value beyond what the name implies.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the simplicity of the tool (one parameter, no output schema), the description is incomplete. It does not explain the logging mechanism, the meaning of 'verbose', or how it relates to other logging tools, leaving the AI without sufficient context.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters1/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The parameter 'msg' has no description in the schema and the tool description adds no meaning beyond the schema. The schema allows string, number, or boolean, but there is no explanation of how the message is used or formatted.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description 'Logs a verbose message' clearly states the action and the resource (message), but it does not distinguish this tool from sibling logging tools like fmod_console_log or fmod_system_message. The addition of '[method · system.verbose]' adds some context but still does not differentiate.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like fmod_console_log, fmod_console_error, or fmod_system_message. There is no mention of prerequisites or conditions.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description carries full burden for behavioral disclosure, but it only says 'Logs a warning.' It fails to mention side effects, return values, or failure modes. This is inadequate for an agent to understand the tool's behavior beyond the trivial.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is extremely concise at one sentence, but it sacrifices substance. While front-loaded, it could include more useful information without becoming verbose. The structure is minimal but acceptable.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's simplicity but many similar siblings, and no output schema, the description is incomplete. It does not explain return behavior, potential errors, or when to prefer this over related tools like fmod_console_warn.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters1/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 0%, and the tool description adds no meaning to the 'msg' parameter. It does not explain what values are appropriate, format, or purpose. The parameter is entirely opaque, forcing the agent to guess.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool logs a warning, which is a specific verb and resource. However, among sibling tools like fmod_console_warn, it does not differentiate between system.warn and console.warn, slightly reducing clarity.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No usage guidelines provided. The description does not indicate when to use this tool over alternatives such as fmod_console_warn or fmod_system_error, nor does it offer any context for proper invocation.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description must disclose behavioral traits. It mentions return type but not how the tool decides which type of plugin to create, nor any side effects, permissions, or error conditions. The parameter 'identfier' is left unexplained, which is critical for a creation tool.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single sentence but includes redundant phrasing ('plug-in effect or a plug-in instrument' repeated) and an awkward space before the period. It could be more concise and structurally clean.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple tool with one parameter and no output schema, the description should clarify the parameter's meaning and any constraints. It partially covers the return value but omits how the parameter influences creation, making it incomplete for an agent to use correctly.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters1/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 0%, so the description must add meaning to the parameter. It fails to explain the 'identfier' parameter—its purpose, expected format, or role in determining the plugin type. The schema itself has an empty description for the parameter.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool creates either a plug-in effect or a plug-in instrument and returns a ManagedObject. However, it does not distinguish this from sibling tools like fmod_MixerBusEffectChain_addEffect, which also create effects but in a different context.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives. There is no mention of prerequisites, when to create an effect vs. instrument, or how this tool fits into the workflow among sibling tools.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, and the description only states what is returned. It does not disclose behavioral traits such as side effects, permissions, or error conditions. The description should compensate for missing annotations but fails to do so.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness2/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is duplicated (two identical sentences) and includes a redundant suffix. It is not concise; one sentence would suffice.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
No output schema exists, so the description must cover return values, which it does partially. However, it fails to explain the role of the 'value' parameter, and the overall context is incomplete for a tool that likely requires className to be specified.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema has 100% coverage with descriptions, but the tool's description does not mention parameters at all. Moreover, the parameter 'value' with description 'New value to assign. Omit to read the current value.' contradicts the read-only nature implied by the tool name and description. The description adds no meaning beyond the schema and introduces confusion.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states it returns an array of relationship description objects for the entity. However, it does not differentiate from siblings like fmod_ManagedObject_relationships, and the duplication and suffix slightly reduce clarity.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives like fmod_add_relationship or fmod_remove_relationship. The description lacks context for usage.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided. The description only mentions that it 'Returns the model' but lacks details on side effects, permissions, or error conditions. For a tool that modifies state, more behavioral disclosure is needed.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is very short (one sentence plus a reference) but lacks clarity and precise wording. It is not overly verbose, but conciseness without clarity is not optimal.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool has 5 required parameters, no output schema, and no annotations, the description is insufficient. It does not explain prerequisites, return value semantics, or error cases. More context is needed for safe and correct usage.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, so all parameters are described in the input schema. The description adds no additional semantic meaning beyond what the schema already provides. Baseline score of 3 applies.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose3/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description states the action ('Adds an instrument') and the resource ('to the track on the model.Parameter specified'), but the phrasing is awkward ('model.Parameter specified') and uses 'instrument' instead of 'sound', which may confuse the agent. It distinguishes from sibling tools like fmod_Event_addGroupTrack but is not fully clear.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives. Siblings such as fmod_Event_addGroupTrack or other add tools exist, but the description offers no context for selection.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations exist, so description must convey behavior. It only states 'returns' but does not disclose that it likely creates a new object in the project (mutation), nor any side effects, permissions, or state changes.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness2/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Description is duplicated verbatim, wasting space. The tag '[method · project.create]' adds little context. Should be a single concise sentence.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given no output schema, the description minimally explains the return type (ManagedObject instance). However, it lacks context about what 'entity' refers to and the side effects of creation.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Parameter 'entityName' is fully described in the schema. The description adds no extra meaning beyond the schema's description.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose3/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description states it returns a new ManagedObject instance for a given entity name, which is clear but vague. It does not differentiate from sibling tools like fmod_create_event, which may also return ManagedObjects. The duplicated text reduces clarity.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives (e.g., fmod_create_event). No prerequisites or context provided for usage.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are present, so the description must carry the full burden of behavioral disclosure. The description does not mention side effects, authorization requirements, or that the tool can mutate state (via the 'value' parameter). It only states it contains version information, which is insufficient for a tool that can both read and write.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single sentence, which is concise, but it includes a colon and reference format that may confuse an AI agent. It is front-loaded but could be more straightforward (e.g., 'Read or write the Studio tool version information.').
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
No output schema is provided, and the description does not explain the structure of the returned object. For a tool returning 'an object containing version information,' the description should list typical version fields (e.g., major, minor, patch) to help the agent understand the return value. The description is incomplete for effective use.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema covers 100% of parameters, each with a clear description. The tool description adds no further meaning beyond what the schema already provides. The baseline of 3 is appropriate since schema coverage is high.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose3/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description states it is an object containing version information for the Studio tool, which indicates the resource. However, it does not clearly specify that the tool can both read and write the version (implied by the parameter), nor does it differentiate it from other tools like fmod_get_property or fmod_set_property. The purpose is somewhat clear but lacks precision.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as fmod_get_property or fmod_set_property. The description does not mention prerequisites or context in which version information should be accessed. This leaves the agent without decision-making support.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description does not disclose behavioral traits such as whether the operation is destructive, idempotent, or requires specific permissions. It only calls it an enumeration, omitting the fact that setting a value modifies the alignment property.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is concise at one sentence, but the cryptic notation '[property · ui.alignment]' reduces clarity. It could be restructured to list possible values or provide a clearer link to the property.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple tool with one parameter and no output schema, the description should clearly explain that it reads or sets the alignment property. It fails to list possible enumeration values or explain the property path, leaving the agent underinformed.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% and the parameter description in the schema is clear. The tool description does not add further meaning beyond what the schema provides, so baseline 3 is appropriate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose3/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description states it is an enumeration for alignment within a layout widget, which conveys the basic purpose. However, it does not explicitly state that this tool can read or set the alignment property, and the reference to '[property · ui.alignment]' is cryptic. It distinguishes from other ui_* tools by topic but not clearly.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given no output schema, the description should explain what happens when reading (returned value) and when setting (effect on layout). It does not address these behaviors, making it incomplete for effective tool use.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Although schema coverage is 100%, the description adds no meaningful interpretation to the 'value' parameter. It references 'Possible values are: [property · ui.layoutType]' without clarifying actual allowed values or how they relate to layout types.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description states it is an enumeration for layout types within UI widget description of widgetType.Layout, which clearly indicates the tool's domain and distinguishes it from other fmod_ui_* tools like fmod_ui_alignment. However, the phrase 'Possible values are: [property · ui.layoutType]' is somewhat cryptic and could be clearer.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description provides no explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, lacks scenarios, and does not mention that the tool can both get and set the layout type. There is no advice on prerequisites or exclusions.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Without annotations, description carries full burden. It mentions the function returns after dialog closes, but does not disclose blocking behavior, user interaction details, or how the dialog appears. The behavioral outline is minimal.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Two concise sentences with no extraneous text, but missing crucial information about the parameter. Front-loading is adequate but incomplete.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness1/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a tool with one parameter, no annotations, and no output schema, the description fails to explain parameter semantics, return value, or how to use it effectively. The tool requires more context for correct invocation.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters1/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 0%, and the description does not explain the meaning of the required 'description' parameter. The parameter type is mixed (string/number/boolean) but its role in the dialog is undefined.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description clearly states 'Displays a dialog window' with a specific verb and resource. The modal nature is implied by 'returns once the dialog has been closed', which distinguishes it from sibling fmod_ui_showModelessDialog.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool vs alternatives (e.g., fmod_ui_showModelessDialog). The description does not provide context for optimal usage or exclusions.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description must fully disclose behavior. It mentions opening a new window if required and returns true on success, but does not specify behavior on failure (e.g., returns false or throws), side effects, or error handling.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is short but contains a duplicate sentence and an unnecessary annotation '[method · window.navigateTo]'. It could be streamlined to avoid redundancy.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple tool with one parameter and no output schema, the description is too minimal. It fails to explain what constitutes success, how to provide a valid ManagedObject, or when a new window is opened. In the context of many sibling tools, more context is needed.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The single parameter 'managedObject' has an empty description in the schema. The tool description implies it is the object to navigate to, but provides no format or type details (e.g., ID, path, reference). With 0% schema coverage, the description insufficiently compensates.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states it navigates to a ManagedObject in the UI, with a distinctive verb and resource. However, the duplicate sentence 'Returns true if successful.' detracts slightly from clarity. It is distinguishable from sibling tools like fmod_window_open and fmod_window_triggerAction.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives. There is no mention of prerequisites, when not to use, or how it differs from sibling tools like fmod_window_open.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations exist, so description must disclose behavior. It says it opens a window and returns a boolean but lacks details on side effects, blocking behavior, or what happens if window already exists.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Single sentence plus return value note and method tag. Concise but at the cost of necessary detail.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Incomplete: no output schema, so return value explanation is minimal. Lacks details on parameter constraints, error cases, and behavioral implications.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema has 0% description coverage; the parameter 'windowType' has no schema description. The description only gives one example ('Event Editor') but does not enumerate valid types or format.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Clearly states it opens a new window of a given type, with an example ('Event Editor'). However, it does not explicitly differentiate from sibling window tools (e.g., navigateTo, actions).
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool vs. alternative window operations. Only mentions return value, but no context for appropriate usage.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description carries full burden but only states it retrieves an array. It does not disclose read-only nature, error conditions, or any side effects, leaving significant gaps.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness2/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description contains an awkward second sentence ('Returns an array of all model.') and an unnecessary method reference. It could be shortened and clarified without losing meaning.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
The tool is simple with one parameter and no output schema, but the description fails to explain what the returned array contains or how to interpret 'all model'. It leaves ambiguity about the return value.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% for the one parameter 'target', so the description adds no extra meaning. Baseline score of 3 is appropriate as the schema already documents the parameter adequately.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description states it retrieves preset parameters from an event, which is specific and distinguishes from sibling tools like fmod_ParameterPreset_getPath. However, the second sentence is confusing and detracts from clarity.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. The sibling list includes many event-related tools, but no exclusions or context are provided.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries full burden. It states the tool retrieves playback position (read operation) but does not disclose what happens if the event is not playing, if the parameter is invalid, or the format of the returned position (e.g., samples, seconds). Minimal behavioral context beyond the function name.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is short (two sentences plus method reference). The second sentence ('Returns the playback position of a model.') is slightly redundant and could be merged or removed. Overall, it is concise but not perfectly lean.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a retrieval tool with no output schema, the description should clarify the return format (e.g., position in samples or milliseconds) and potential errors (e.g., if parameter doesn't exist). It lacks these details, making it incomplete for an agent to fully understand the tool's behavior.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100%, providing clear definitions for both 'target' and 'parameter'. The description adds no additional meaning beyond 'a given parameter', which is redundant. Baseline 3 is appropriate as schema does the heavy lifting.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description states it retrieves the playback position of a given parameter from an event, which is specific. The method reference adds clarity. However, it could be clearer that 'parameter' refers to Timeline or GameParameter within the Event context, and it doesn't explicitly distinguish from siblings like fmod_Parameter_getPlayheadPosition.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines1/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
There is no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as fmod_Event_getCursorPosition or fmod_Parameter_getPlayheadPosition. The description does not mention prerequisites, typical use cases, or exclusions.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are present, so the description must carry the behavioral burden. It does not disclose that the tool can read or write a project property, nor does it mention side effects, required permissions, or the nature of the return value.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single, clear sentence that front-loads the core concept. It is concise with no unnecessary words.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the simplicity of the tool (one optional parameter, no output schema), the description is mostly adequate but lacks the enumeration of possible values for the enum, which would be helpful for the agent.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100%, with the parameter described generically. The description adds domain context ('distance attenuation roll-off types available to spatial effects'), which enhances understanding beyond the schema.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose3/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description identifies the resource as an enum for distance attenuation roll-off types, but does not explicitly state that it gets or sets a project property. The action is implied through the schema parameter description but not stated in the description itself.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines1/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. Among siblings, there are other property-related tools (e.g., fmod_project_parameterType), but no context is given for distinguishing them.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations present, so description must fully disclose behavior. It describes reading only, but schema allows setting a value. This omission misleads about the tool's full capabilities.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness2/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Two sentences, but one is a word-for-word duplicate, wasting space. Extra metadata tag adds no clarity. Could be condensed.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple getter/setter, the description covers reading but omits writing, leaving the agent with an incomplete understanding. Missing output schema details.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema covers the parameter with a description ('New value to assign. Omit to read.'), so baseline 3 applies. The description adds no further parameter detail.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool retrieves the current operating system, specifying return values. However, it ignores the write capability implied by the schema, which could confuse agents.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus siblings like fmod_system_getText or fmod_studio_version. Agents receive no context for selection.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, and the description only states the basic action without disclosing side effects, return values, or required permissions. The description carries the full burden but does not fulfill it.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is one sentence with a method reference, which is concise. However, given the tool's simplicity, the conciseness is appropriate but could benefit from additional context.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
The description is adequate for a simple setter with two parameters and no output schema, but it lacks details about the effect on the timeline and does not leverage sibling differentiation to enhance completeness.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents both parameters. However, the description says 'to a number' while the schema allows string and boolean, potentially misleading the agent. It adds no value beyond the schema.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the verb 'Sets' and the resource 'cursor position of the timeline', but it does not explicitly distinguish from sibling tools like fmod_Event_setCursorPosition. The mention of 'timeline' provides implicit differentiation.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. The description does not mention prerequisites, context, or exclusions, leaving the agent to infer usage from the name alone.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description must disclose behaviors. It mentions returning a ManagedObject and optional tabName, but fails to describe error handling, side effects (none), or what happens if no selection exists. The repetitive text adds no value.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness2/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Two sentences, but the first sentence is repeated verbatim, wasting space. The bracketed technical suffix is unnecessary verbosity. Could be more concise.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given no output schema, the description should clarify what the returned ManagedObject is (e.g., its type or structure). It doesn't describe error conditions or edge cases. For a simple retrieval tool with one optional param, it is incomplete.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema has 1 parameter (tabName) with minimal description '(optional)'. The description adds that it selects from a different browser tab, providing context. However, schema coverage is 100% but schema description is poor, so description slightly compensates.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description clearly states it returns the currently selected ManagedObject in the active browser tab of the last active window, with optional tabName. It is specific and not a tautology, though it doesn't differentiate from siblings like fmod_window_browserSelection.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description must convey safety and behavior. It only states logging members but doesn't disclose if it's read-only, what output is produced, or any side effects. The '[method · console.dump]' tag adds minimal clarity.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is very concise with a single sentence and a tag, but it is front-loaded and clear. It earns points for efficiency, though more detail would improve its value.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Without annotations, the description carries full burden for behavioral disclosure. It indicates a read operation (returns a string) but does not mention any side effects, permissions, performance implications, or error handling. The behavioral traits are minimal and leave significant gaps.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description contains two identical sentences, indicating redundancy. It also includes a technical note '[method · entity.document]'. While the content is short, the duplication makes it less concise than it could be.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the lack of annotations and output schema, the description is incomplete. It does not specify the format of the returned string (e.g., JSON, plain text), error conditions, or whether the entity must exist. The description leaves the agent with unanswered questions about the tool's full behavior.

The description is brief but contains an unnecessary repetition (the same sentence twice) and a code artifact. It could be more concise by combining into one sentence and removing redundancy.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
With no output schema and no behavioral details, the description leaves ambiguity about return value, types, and usage examples. For a tool with a clear purpose but lacking context on output, this is incomplete.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, so the input schema already describes both parameters ('path' and 'target'). The description adds no additional semantic value beyond what is in the schema, meeting the baseline but not exceeding it.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

With no annotations, the description carries full burden but only says it 'returns a string'. It does not disclose behavior for invalid targets, performance, or any side effects, which is minimal transparency.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is short but contains a duplicate sentence ('Returns a string describing...'), making it slightly redundant. It could be more concise.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Without an output schema, the description should ideally clarify the format of the returned string. It does not, leaving the agent guessing about the exact content returned.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The description adds no extra parameter meaning beyond what the schema already provides, but it is not incomplete.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool returns a string describing the entity type of a ManagedObject, using a specific verb and resource. However, it does not differentiate among sibling tools like fmod_ManagedObject_entity, which might provide similar information.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives or any prerequisites. The agent has no context on when calling this is appropriate compared to other ManagedObject tools.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided, so the description must fully convey behavioral traits. It only states the core function but does not disclose aspects like case sensitivity, behavior for invalid entity names, or whether it returns false for subtypes. This is insufficient for a type-checking tool.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness2/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is repetitive (same sentence twice) and includes an unnecessary metadata reference '[method · ManagedObject.isOfExactType]' that does not aid an agent. It could be more concise and front-loaded.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
The tool is simple with two parameters and no output schema. The description covers the basic purpose but lacks details on the strictness of the check vs isOfType, error handling, and edge cases. Adequate but not comprehensive.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% and both parameters have descriptions. The tool description adds no additional meaning beyond the schema, earning the baseline score of 3.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states that it checks if the object type exactly matches the provided entity name and returns a boolean. The name and description align, but it does not differentiate from the sibling tool fmod_ManagedObject_isOfType, which likely checks subtype relationships.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like fmod_ManagedObject_isOfType or other type querying tools. The description only states what it does without context for selecting this tool.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description must disclose behavioral traits. It states only that it retrieves the input format, but does not indicate whether it is a read-only operation, requires authorization, or what happens if the bus does not exist. The description is insufficient.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is brief but slightly unclear: 'Returns the effective input format for a model' is confusing because 'model' is not defined. It could be more concise without this ambiguity.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Since there is no output schema, the description should explain what the return value represents. It mentions 'input format' but does not specify the format type or structure. For a retrieval tool, this is incomplete.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100% (the single parameter 'target' is well-described in the schema). The description adds no additional meaning beyond the schema, which is acceptable. Baseline score of 3 is appropriate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states that the tool retrieves the input format of a bus and returns the effective input format for a model. The verb 'retrieves' and resource 'input format' are specific. However, it does not distinguish from the sibling tool fmod_MixerBus_getOutputFormat, so it loses a point.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
There is no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. The description does not mention any prerequisites, context, or exclusions. The sibling fmod_MixerBus_getOutputFormat exists but is not referenced.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description carries full burden. It discloses that creation returns a ManagedObject but does not mention side effects, validation, or whether existing points are affected. Minimal behavioral context.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is short and front-loaded with the primary action. The bracketed reference adds minor clutter but does not significantly detract. It earns its place.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
The description explains the return type (ManagedObject) but lacks details on return structure or error conditions. For a simple creation tool with 3 well-described parameters, it is moderately complete.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% with descriptions already provided. The description adds constraints for value and position (range requirements), which adds some value beyond the schema. No new parameter-level details beyond that.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states it creates an automation point on a curve and returns a ManagedObject. It uses a specific verb and resource. However, it does not differentiate among siblings like fmod_Automator_addAutomationCurve which adds a curve, but the distinction is implicit.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives (e.g., adding a curve or modifying points). The description does not specify prerequisites such as requiring an existing AutomationCurve object.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations present, so description carries full burden. Only mentions creation and return type but fails to disclose side effects, permissions, or constraints like whether automation curves can be overwritten or if the parameter must exist already.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
One sentence plus a method reference, no fluff. However, the method reference in brackets may be confusing or unnecessary for an AI agent. Efficient but slightly unstructured.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
With no output schema and no annotations, the description is minimal. It does not explain what an AutomationCurve is, how it interacts with parameters, or what the returned ManagedObject represents. Lacks completeness for a tool in a complex domain like FMOD automation.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% with descriptions for both parameters. The description adds 'on the parameter specified' which is redundant. Does not provide additional meaning beyond the schema, so baseline 3 is appropriate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Clearly states 'Creates a model.AutomationCurve on the parameter specified' with a verb and resource. Includes return type and method reference, but does not differentiate from sibling tools like fmod_AutomationCurve_addAutomationPoint or fmod_AutomatableObject_addAutomator.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool vs alternatives. No prerequisites, context, or exclusions provided. The description only states what it does, not when it's appropriate.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations provided, the description carries full responsibility for behavioral transparency. It only states that the tool logs an error and is an alias. It does not disclose any behavioral traits such as output destination, synchronous execution, side effects, or error handling, which are expected for a logging function.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is concise at three short sentences, front-loading the core purpose. It efficiently states the action and alias. However, structure could be improved with parameter details or usage hints.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool is simple with no output schema, the description is incomplete. It lacks information about return values (none expected), parameter semantics, and potential side effects. The minimal context leaves an agent uncertain about how to construct a complete call.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema has 0% description coverage and the parameter 'msg' has an empty description. The tool description does not mention the parameter at all, leaving the agent without guidance on what 'msg' should contain. For a simple tool, this is a significant gap.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool logs an error, specifying the verb 'Logs' and resource 'error'. It also identifies it as an alias for studio.system.error. However, it does not explicitly differentiate from sibling console tools like fmod_console_log or fmod_console_warn, relying on the tool name for distinction.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description implies usage for error logging via the tool name and the phrase 'Logs an error'. It also notes it is an alias. However, it provides no explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, nor does it mention any conditions or exclusions.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries full burden. It states it logs a message and is an alias, but doesn't disclose any side effects, whether it throws errors, or if it returns any value. The behavioral context is minimal.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is extremely concise—two short sentences—and front-loaded with the core action. Every word is functional, no extraneous information.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple tool with a single parameter and no output schema, the description is still incomplete. It lacks details about the parameter's type (though schema provides that), expected behavior, and any return value or confirmation. Given the tool's simplicity, a more complete description would be easy to provide.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters1/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 0% (empty description for 'msg' parameter). The tool description does not add any meaning to the parameter; it only says 'Logs a message' without explaining what the message parameter accepts or its constraints.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool logs a message, using the verb 'Logs' and resource 'message'. It also distinguishes itself from siblings like fmod_console_error and fmod_console_warn by being a general log, and provides an alias to another method.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like console_error or console_warn. The description mentions it's an alias for studio.system.print but doesn't explain when that is preferable or when not to use it.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description only states the return type. It does not disclose potential performance issues with large result sets, error conditions, or side effects. Minimal transparency.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description repeats the same sentence twice, which is redundant. It is short but not optimally concise. The technical note adds clutter.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given no output schema and many sibling tools, the description is adequate but lacks details on possible return values or entity type specifics. Not fully complete for a query tool.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema covers 100% of parameters with descriptions. The description adds no extra meaning beyond the schema, only noting optional parameters. Baseline score of 3 is appropriate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Clearly states it returns an array of ManagedObject instances for a given entity type, distinguishing it from singleton or document tools. However, the purpose is clear but the description is redundant.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like fmod_entity_singletonInstance or fmod_entity_document. The description lacks context for selection.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior1/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
The description claims the value is 'constant', implying read-only, but the input schema includes a parameter 'value' for assignment. This inconsistency is misleading and undermines transparency. Additionally, no behavioral traits (e.g., permissions, side effects) are disclosed, and there are no annotations to fall back on.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single, clear sentence with a bracketed note. It is extremely concise and to the point, with no filler content.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple boolean property tool with two parameters, the description covers the basic purpose but omits important context about read/write behavior and does not clarify the contradiction between 'constant' and the writable schema. Without annotations or output schema, this gap leaves the agent underinformed.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents both parameters. The description adds no extra semantic meaning beyond what the schema provides, meeting the baseline for this dimension.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly identifies the tool as representing the 'isAbstract' property of an entity, distinguishing it from related boolean property tools like fmod_entity_isGlobal and fmod_entity_isSingleton. However, it does not explicitly state that it can both read and set the property, leading to slight ambiguity.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives, such as other entity property tools or data retrieval methods. The description simply defines what the tool represents without contextual usage advice.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior1/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Description claims it's a 'constant' but input schema allows setting a new value via 'value' parameter, creating a contradiction. No annotations to clarify.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description must carry the behavioral disclosure. It explains the meaning of the value but does not mention side effects, required permissions, or error conditions when writing invalid values. For a mutating property, more transparency is needed.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is very short and front-loaded, but it does not add much beyond restating the tool name. It could be more structured with separate sentences for read versus write behavior.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given no output schema and low complexity, the description adequately explains the return value (array of strings) but lacks details on write behavior and error handling. It is minimally complete.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The description adds no extra meaning beyond the schema; it does not explain the semantics of 'parameterDefinition' (which can be a string, number, or boolean).
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the action ('Adds a game parameter') and the target ('to the event'), with the verb and resource distinguished. It also mentions the return type. However, it does not differentiate this tool from sibling tools like fmod_Event_addGroupTrack or fmod_Event_addMarkerTrack, which have similar structures.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
The description lacks context to differentiate from sibling tools for adding different track types. Given the complexity of the domain (FMOD events) and no output schema, the description is not sufficient for an agent to select or invoke correctly.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The description adds little beyond the schema: 'with the given name' repeats the 'name' parameter. It does not explain what a group track is or how it differs from other track types. Schema coverage is 100%, but description does not enhance understanding.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It only says 'Retrieves the 3D attributes' without explaining what those attributes are (e.g., position, orientation) or confirming it is a safe, read-only operation. The method reference adds little behavioral context.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is very concise, consisting of one sentence and a reference. It is front-loaded with the essential action. However, it could be slightly more informative without losing conciseness, e.g., by hinting at the returned structure.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given that there is no output schema, the description should provide some indication of what the 3D attributes consist of (e.g., position, orientation, velocity) or the shape of the return value. It does not, leaving the agent uncertain about what to expect.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% with one parameter 'target' described in detail in the schema. The description does not add meaning beyond the schema, so baseline of 3 applies. No extra semantic info is provided.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description must carry the full burden of disclosing behavior. It does not explain what the keyoff command actually does (e.g., transitions to a sustain section, stops, or releases a sustain), nor does it mention prerequisites like the event must be currently playing or any side effects.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given no output schema, no annotations, and only one parameter, the description should provide more context about the effect of keyoff, return values, and usage scenarios. The current description is too minimal to fully inform an AI agent.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The single 'target' parameter has 100% schema description coverage, and the tool description repeats the same information about path format. The description adds no new meaning beyond the schema, meeting the baseline for high schema coverage.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states that the tool sends a keyoff command to a playing event instance, and includes a reference to the FMOD API method. However, it does not distinguish this action from sibling tools like stopImmediate or stopNonImmediate, which could cause confusion for an AI agent.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description provides no guidance on when to use keyOff versus alternative stop or pause commands. Given the sibling tools include stopImmediate, stopNonImmediate, and togglePause, the lack of contextual advice is a significant gap.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description carries full burden. It does not disclose behavioral traits such as whether playback starts from the beginning, whether it can be called multiple times, or if there are side effects (e.g., resetting the event). The one-line description is insufficient for transparency.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is very short, containing only one sentence and a trailing reference. It is concise and clear, but could be slightly improved by removing the bracketed part. However, for a simple action, this level of conciseness is acceptable.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the simplicity of the tool and lack of output schema, the description is minimal and fails to provide sufficient context. It does not explain the return value, effect on event state, or prerequisites like a valid event instance. More details would improve completeness.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100% (target parameter described in schema). The tool description adds no extra meaning beyond specifying 'plays the event instance'. Baseline 3 is appropriate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the action 'Plays the event instance', which is a specific verb and resource. It distinguishes from sibling tools like stop, pause, keyOff, etc. However, it lacks details on playback behavior (e.g., from beginning or resume).
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. There is no mention of when to use play vs other event manipulation tools like stop or keyOff. The description provides no usage context.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior1/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided; description carries full burden. Does not disclose behavioral traits: effects on playback, whether event must be stopped, side effects, or success/failure conditions. Minimal information.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Single sentence plus method reference; no wasted words. Could be more efficient with clearer structure, but remains concise.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
No output schema, 3 parameters, many sibling tools. Description fails to explain what 'cursor position' represents, the effect of setting it, or relationship between parameter and position. Incomplete for practical use.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% with descriptions for target, position, and parameter. Description adds no additional semantic value beyond what schema already provides. Baseline 3.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Clearly states action 'sets' and resource 'cursor position' with reference to Event class (Event.setCursorPosition). Distinguishes from siblings like fmod_Event_set3DAttributes and fmod_Timeline_setCursorPosition.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool vs alternatives such as fmod_Event_play or fmod_Event_set3DAttributes. Lacks context about prerequisites (e.g., event must be loaded, state requirements).
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
The description lacks behavioral details beyond the basic retrieval action. With no annotations, it fails to disclose read-only nature, error handling, or side effects. Minimal transparency for a query tool.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is concise with two sentences. However, the method reference [method · GroupBus.getItem] is noisy and adds no value for the agent.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
The output is vaguely referenced as 'Returns the model' without explaining the model's structure or fields. With no output schema, this incomplete description hinders the agent's understanding of the return value.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Both parameters are fully described in the schema (100% coverage), so the description adds no new parameter semantics. Baseline score of 3 is appropriate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states it retrieves a mixer bus by relative path and returns a model. However, it does not explicitly differentiate from sibling tools like fmod_Folder_getItem, which may have similar behavior.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool vs. alternatives. No prerequisites or context provided, leaving the agent to infer usage from the name alone.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided, so the description bears full transparency burden. It only states the return type but does not confirm read-only behavior, side effects, or any required permissions. For a simple property getter, this is insufficiently disclosed.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
One sentence with no redundancy, but includes the bracketed '[property · ManagedObject.entity]' which adds noise and could be removed. Otherwise efficient.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool has one parameter and no output schema, the description minimally explains the return value. However, it lacks context about entity types and how this tool fits among sibling property getters, leaving some ambiguity.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% and already documents the 'target' parameter with a clear description. The tool description adds no extra meaning beyond what the schema provides, so baseline score of 3 is appropriate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description states it returns a string representing the object's project.Entity type, clearly indicating it's a getter for the 'entity' property. It distinguishes from siblings like fmod_ManagedObject_id or fmod_ManagedObject_document by specifying the returned type.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. The description does not mention prerequisites, context, or exclusions, leaving the agent to infer usage from the tool name alone.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description carries the full burden. It explains the return type (boolean), implying a read-only operation, but does not disclose potential errors, permissions, or side effects. The duplication reduces transparency.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness2/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description contains a duplicated sentence ('Returns whether...') and unnecessary property reference, wasting space. It could be concise with a single sentence.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple query tool with one parameter and no output schema, the description adequately states the return type. However, it lacks context on when the result is relevant or how validity is determined.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% and the target parameter is well-described in the schema. The description adds no extra meaning beyond the schema, so baseline score applies.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool checks whether an object is in a valid state, distinguishing it from sibling tools like isOfExactType or isOfType. The verb 'returns' and resource 'valid state' are specific and unambiguous.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, no prerequisites or context provided. The description only states what it does, leaving the agent to infer usage.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It only states the tool 'provides access' and returns a map, implying read-only behavior, but does not explicitly state that it is non-destructive, has no side effects, or requires any specific permissions. The behavioral transparency is minimal.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is concise with two sentences that directly state the purpose and return type. It is front-loaded with the key action. No unnecessary words. However, it could benefit from slightly more structure, such as a brief hint about the parameter format or return usage.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple getter tool with one parameter and no output schema, the description provides the essential information: what it does and what it returns. However, it does not explain what a ManagedPropertyMap is or how to interpret its contents, which may be necessary for an agent to fully utilize the output. It is adequate but not complete.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The schema coverage is 100% for the single 'target' parameter, with a clear description in the schema. The tool description does not add any additional meaning or constraints beyond what the schema already provides. Therefore, the baseline of 3 is appropriate—the description does not improve parameter understanding beyond the schema.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states it provides access to an object's properties and returns a ManagedPropertyMap. The verb 'access' and noun 'properties' make the purpose specific. Among sibling ManagedObject tools, it differentiates by referencing properties, but does not explicitly contrast with others like 'fmod_ManagedObject_document' or 'fmod_ManagedObject_dump'.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. The description does not mention prerequisites, exclusions, or usage context. An agent would have to infer from the tool name and sibling list that this is for reading properties, but no explicit 'when-to-use' or 'when-not-to-use' is provided.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided, so description must disclose behavior. It only states the action and return, but does not mention side effects, permissions, error conditions, or safety. A simple read operation, but without explicit non-destructive hint, transparency is minimal.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
One sentence plus a method tag; no fluff. Efficient, but could include brief usage context without harming conciseness.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
With no output schema and no annotations, the description is too sparse. It doesn't explain what 'returns the model' means in practice, or handle edge cases. For a simple getter, more context would be beneficial.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, so parameters are already described. The description adds examples for 'target' (e.g., 'event:/SFX/Hit') which aids understanding, but for 'path' it simply repeats the schema. Baseline 3 due to high coverage, plus minor added value.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description clearly states it retrieves an asset at a given path and returns the model. The verb 'retrieves' and resource 'asset' are specific. However, it does not explicitly distinguish from sibling tools like fmod_Asset_getAbsoluteAssetPath or fmod_Folder_getItem, but the name implies it's for MasterAssetFolder.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like fmod_Folder_getItem or other asset retrievers. The description lacks context for selection.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are present, so the description must disclose behavioral traits. It mentions creating an effect and returning a ManagedObject, but omits details like side effects, permissions, what happens on failure, or whether existing effects are affected. For a creation tool, this is insufficient.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is concise with two sentences, front-loading the main action. The cross-reference '[method · MixerBusEffectChain.addEffect]' is slightly noisy but does not detract significantly.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's complexity (2 params, no output schema), the description is adequate for basic usage but lacks behavioral context. It does not explain return value meaning, error cases, or workflow implications, leaving gaps for an AI agent.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3. The description adds minimal extra meaning beyond the schema, such as clarifying effectDefinition accepts presets or strings, but largely repeats schema info. It does not explain the format of 'target' or provide examples.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool creates an effect and adds it to the end of the chain, with specific verb 'Creates' and resource 'MixerBusEffectChain'. It distinguishes itself from sibling 'add' tools like fmod_AudioTrack_addAutomationTrack through its name and context, though it does not explicitly differentiate.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives, such as other methods of adding effects or when effectDefinition should be a preset vs. string. The description lacks prerequisites or exclusion criteria.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
The description claims 'retrieves', implying a read-only operation, but the schema includes an optional 'value' parameter for assigning a new value, indicating the tool can also write. This contradiction is not addressed in the description. Additionally, no information about return values or side effects is provided.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single sentence that is concise and front-loaded with the key purpose. The appended reference '[property · Parameter.getPlayheadPosition]' adds minor overhead but does not detract significantly.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool has two parameters and no output schema, the description should explain the return value format (e.g., time units) and clarify the write capability. It fails to do so, leaving significant gaps in understanding.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents both parameters clearly. The description adds no additional meaning beyond what the schema provides, meeting the baseline for this dimension.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states 'retrieves the playback position of a parameter', specifying the verb and resource. It mentions the context (associated model.Event), but does not explicitly differentiate from the sibling tool 'fmod_Event_getPlayheadPosition', which likely operates at the event level.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'fmod_Event_getPlayheadPosition'. The description lacks any contextual direction for usage.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided. Description only states return value, no mention of side effects, permissions, or error behavior. For a getter tool, minimal disclosure.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
No output schema. Description states return type (number) but lacks detail on what the cursor position represents or error conditions. Adequate for a simple getter but not comprehensive.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Single parameter 'target' has schema description, but it's generic (path or guid). Tool name implies target should be ParameterProxy, but description doesn't clarify. Schema coverage is 100%, so baseline 3.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description clearly states it retrieves cursor position of a preset parameter, and mentions it's within an event context. It differentiates from sibling tools like fmod_Event_getCursorPosition by focusing on preset parameters rather than events directly.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool vs alternatives like fmod_GameParameter_getCursorPosition or fmod_ParameterProxy_setCursorPosition. Agent must infer from tool name alone.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description carries the full burden. It only states that it sets cursor position to a number, but does not disclose side effects, permissions, or constraints. The schema allows string and boolean for position, which conflicts with the description's 'numerical position'.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
One sentence plus a tag. It is concise, but the tag is not essential. Could be more structured by placing the action first.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Without output schema, the description lacks explanation of the ParameterProxy context, return values, and how it differs from other cursor-setting tools. Incomplete for an agent to reliably choose among many siblings.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3. The description adds no additional meaning beyond the schema; it merely restates that position is a number.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states it sets the cursor position of a preset parameter to a number. It uses a specific verb and resource, but does not explicitly differentiate it from siblings like fmod_Event_setCursorPosition or fmod_GameParameter_setCursorPosition.

- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description carries the full burden. It only states the trigger event but does not disclose side effects of reading or writing the property, or any restrictions on the callback. The nature of the property (get/set vs. event registration) is ambiguous.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is very concise, consisting of a single sentence plus a contextual tag. It gets straight to the point with no extraneous information, which is efficient. However, it could benefit from a tiny bit more detail without becoming verbose.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the lack of annotations, output schema, and the presence of a single parameter, the description is insufficient for an agent to understand how to properly invoke this tool. It does not explain the return value when reading the property or how to set a callback, leaving critical gaps for a callback property.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema has 100% coverage with a single optional 'value' parameter of primitive types. The description does not add any meaning beyond the schema; it doesn't explain how 'value' is used (e.g., to assign a callback or read the current callback). Baseline 3 is appropriate since schema coverage is high.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states it is a callback triggered when an audio file finishes importing. It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like fmod_project_audioFileImported_connect by being a property rather than a connection method. However, it could be more explicit about the fact that it is a property callback that can be read or set.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description carries full burden for behavioral disclosure. It only states the basic read/write functionality without describing any side effects, validation, or error conditions. For example, it does not mention if writing the path triggers a save or requires permissions.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single sentence, effectively front-loading the core purpose. It is concise but includes a typo (backtick instead of apostrophe) which slightly detracts from professionalism.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
The description lacks information about return values, especially when reading the property. There is no output schema, so the description should explain what the tool returns, but it does not. This leaves the agent uncertain about the tool's output.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema has 100% coverage, so baseline is 3. The description does not add any additional meaning to the 'value' parameter beyond what the schema already provides. No contradiction, but no enhancement either.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states that the tool gets or sets the absolute path to the project's .fspro file. It uses specific language ('absolute path', 'file on disk') and includes a metadata tag indicating it's a property. However, it does not explicitly state that it supports both reading and writing, relying on the input schema to imply that.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives. There are sibling tools like fmod_get_property and fmod_set_property that could serve similar purposes, but the description offers no differentiation or context for choosing this tool.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. It only states the lookup method but does not disclose what happens if the object is not found, whether it is idempotent, or any side effects.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Two sentences effectively convey the core purpose, though the second sentence repeats the first. No unnecessary information.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Missing details about the return value structure (no output schema) and error conditions. For a lookup tool, the agent needs to know what to expect when the object is found or not found.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, so the parameter is fully described in the schema. The description merely restates the schema's description (GUID or path) without adding new meaning.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool looks up a ManagedObject by path or GUID. The verb 'lookup' and resource are specific, but it does not differentiate from sibling tools like fmod_entity_findInstances.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives (e.g., fmod_entity_findInstances). No mention of prerequisites or when not to use it.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, and the description fails to disclose that the tool can both read and write (based on the 'value' parameter), nor does it mention any side effects or permissions.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single, concise sentence with no wasted words. It is front-loaded with the core concept.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
With no output schema, the description should explain what the tool returns, but it only states it's an enum. The mutate/read behavior is not clarified, leaving the tool incomplete for an agent.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100% with a clear description for the 'value' parameter ('New value to assign. Omit to read the current value.'). The tool description adds no additional parameter meaning beyond the schema.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states it's an enum for parameter types, but it doesn't specify whether the tool is for reading or setting the property, leaving its action ambiguous.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus other fmod tools for accessing project properties or handling parameter types. Sibling tools include many getters/setters, but no differentiation is provided.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, and the description lacks behavioral details. It does not mention that the tool can both read and write the loop mode, nor does it disclose any side effects or prerequisites.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is very concise with no wasted words, but it could be slightly more informative without losing conciseness.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given no output schema, the description does not explain what the tool returns when reading. It also does not list possible enum values, leaving the agent to infer from context. This inadequacy reduces completeness.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The single parameter 'value' is fully described in the input schema with clear semantics (omit to read, assign to write). The description adds no additional information beyond the schema, so baseline 3 is appropriate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly identifies the tool as an enum property for loop modes on a region, linking it to 'project.regionLoopMode'. However, it does not explicitly state the tool's action (e.g., get/set), relying on the input schema to imply it.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No usage guidelines are provided. There is no indication of when to use this tool versus alternatives, such as other property tools listed in siblings.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
The description lacks details on side effects, such as whether it replaces existing fade-in curves, or permissions required. Without annotations, the description carries the full burden and fails to disclose important behavioral traits.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is very concise (one sentence plus a method reference), which is efficient. However, the method reference may be cryptic to some users, slightly reducing clarity.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
The description is minimal and does not cover important context such as return values, prerequisites, or behavior when called multiple times. For a mutation tool with no output schema and no annotations, this is insufficient.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, so the schema already describes all parameters adequately. The description adds no extra meaning beyond the schema, so a baseline score of 3 is appropriate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the action (sets fade-in curve) and the target (instrument, though the tool name says Sound). It distinguishes from the sibling fmod_Sound_setFadeOutCurve by specifying fade-in. The reference to the API method adds context for developers familiar with FMOD.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like fmod_Sound_setFadeOutCurve. The description does not provide context about prerequisites or typical use cases.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries full behavioral burden. It does not disclose that the tool can modify a critical system path, potential side effects of setting the value, or required permissions. The tag [property] is insufficient.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single, front-loaded sentence that conveys the core purpose. It is concise, but could include a brief note about the parameter behavior without bloating.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple 1-parameter property tool with schema coverage, the description is adequate but missing behavioral and usage context. It does not mention return type or that both reading and writing are possible, which are needed for full completeness.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% and the schema's description for the only parameter ('value') is clear. The description adds nothing beyond what the schema provides, so baseline score applies.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool returns the absolute file path of the FMOD Studio executable. It identifies the resource and verb (property access), but does not explicitly mention that it can also set the value, which the schema supports. The [property] tag helps but is not part of the prose.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is given on when to use this tool versus alternatives like fmod_get_property or fmod_set_property. There is no mention of prerequisites, context for setting, or comparison to other property tools.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Without annotations, the description carries full burden. It only states the return type but does not disclose any side effects, prerequisites, or behavior details. The description is too minimal.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is short but contains a clear redundancy (same sentence repeated). The bracketed note adds noise rather than value. It should be a single concise sentence.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given no output schema and no annotations, the description is incomplete. It does not explain what the callstack contains, format, or any circumstances that affect availability.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The tool has no parameters, so schema coverage is 100% trivially. The description doesn't need to add parameters. Baseline 4 is appropriate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool returns the callstack as an array of strings, which is a specific verb and resource. However, the repetition of the same sentence and the bracketed metadata add no value. Compared to sibling tools, it's distinct.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is given on when to use this tool versus alternative debugging approaches. There is no mention of prerequisites or context.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries full burden. It only states that it is an enumeration and controls dialog behavior, but does not disclose side effects, return values, or what happens on invalid input. Minimal behavioral context.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is short but somewhat vague. The sentence structure is acceptable, but it could be more direct. No wasted words, but also lacks clarity.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple enumeration getter/setter, the description provides basic understanding. However, it does not explain return format or mention possible enum values, which reduces completeness. It is adequate but not rich.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% for the single parameter, and the description adds the nuance that omitting the value reads the current value. However, it does not list the actual enum values, relying on a reference to a property. Baseline 3 is appropriate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states that the tool represents an enumeration for path types used by a PathLineEdit UI component, and it controls the behavior of a browser dialog. This is specific and distinguishes it from other ui_* tools, though it could be more explicit about the get/set capability.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. It does not mention any prerequisites, exclusions, or compare with sibling tools like fmod_ui_alignment or fmod_ui_echoMode.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Without annotations, the description carries full burden. It only states 'returns' without disclosing side effects, permission needs, error conditions, or whether the result could be null. Minimal transparency.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness2/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is very short but contains repetition of the same sentence and a truncated fragment ('e. [method · window.editorCurrent]'). This indicates lack of editing and conciseness.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple getter with no params and no output schema, the description is somewhat complete. However, it lacks details about possible null results, what constitutes an 'active editor', and the type of ManagedObject returned.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
There are no parameters, so the description correctly implies no input is needed. Baseline is 4 for zero parameters, and the description adds no param info but also doesn't need to.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states that the tool returns the currently selected ManagedObject in the last active editor, using a specific verb and resource. It distinguishes from sibling tools like fmod_window_browserCurrent, though not explicitly. The repetition and trailing fragment slightly reduce clarity.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives. There is no mention of prerequisites, such as requiring an active editor or what happens if none is available.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description must bear the full weight. It only states the basic action and return, but lacks details on side effects, such as whether the event is automatically added to a specific folder, if the project must be loaded, or any permission requirements.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single sentence plus a method note, which is concise. However, the method tag '[method · workspace.addEvent]' is extraneous for an AI agent. Still, it is well-structured and front-loaded.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Despite returning a ManagedObject, the description does not explain the return structure or any other outputs. No output schema exists, so more details would help. It also omits information about the event's initial state, such as default settings or whether it is immediately part of the workspace hierarchy.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The description adds context for 'withSpatializer' (adding an FMOD spatializer) but contradicts the schema by implying 'name' is a string and 'withSpatializer' is a bool, while the schema accepts string, number, boolean for both. This inconsistency reduces clarity. However, with 100% schema description coverage, the baseline is 3, but the contradiction drops it to 2.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Clearly states the action (adds an event), the resource (project), and the return value (ManagedObject). The verb 'add' and the noun 'event' are specific. The sibling tools include different actions like adding game parameters or tags, so this tool is distinctly identified.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as fmod_create_event or other add tools. There is no mention of context, prerequisites, or when not to use this tool.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are present, so the description carries full burden. It only states it adds and returns a ManagedObject, with no disclosure of side effects, permissions, or behavioral traits beyond the basic operation.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Two sentences, front-loaded with the action. No redundant information, but could be more efficient by removing the bracketed method reference.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Mentions return type (ManagedObject) which is helpful since there is no output schema. However, lacks explanation of what a 'preset parameter' is or how to structure the parameterDefinition input.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% (one parameter with description). The description repeats the schema's description ('The object describing the parameter to add') without adding new meaning or clarifying the type discrepancy (schema says primitive types, description says object).
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description states 'Adds a preset parameter to the project' with a clear verb and resource, and mentions return type. However, it does not differentiate from sibling tools like fmod_Event_addGameParameter, which also adds a game parameter but at the event level.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is concise with two sentences, no filler, and front-loaded with the action. Could be slightly more structured, but overall efficient.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple one-parameter tool, the description lacks completeness. It does not explain whether tags must be unique, what constitutes a valid name, or the impact on the project. No output schema further reduces completeness.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% with one parameter described as 'name of tag to add.' The description adds no additional semantics beyond the schema, so baseline score of 3 is appropriate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the action ('Adds a tag') and resource ('to the project') and the return value ('Returns the tag ManagedObject'). The tool name itself distinguishes it from siblings like fmod_workspace_addEvent, but the description does not explicitly differentiate.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidelines are provided about when to use this tool versus alternatives. There is no mention of prerequisites, context, or exclusions.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description carries full burden. It only states the return value (path relative to assets directory) but fails to disclose side effects, error behavior (e.g., if asset not found), permissions, or any other behavioral traits. The schema already defines the input, so added value is minimal.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description repeats the same sentence verbatim and appends a bracketed method reference that may not be useful to an AI agent. While only two sentences, the redundancy makes it slightly verbose. Could be more concise.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Despite low complexity (single parameter, no output schema), the description does not specify the return format, error handling, or behavior for invalid inputs. This leaves the agent unsure about how to parse the result or handle failures, making it incomplete.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, so the description does not need to add parameter details. It does not explain the 'target' parameter beyond what the schema already provides (path or guid). No new meaning is added, earning the baseline score.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly identifies the tool's function: retrieving the asset's path relative to the project assets directory. It distinguishes from the sibling fmod_Asset_getAbsoluteAssetPath by specifying 'relative', and mentions the return type (path). The repetition does not harm clarity.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to prefer this tool over alternatives like fmod_Asset_getAbsoluteAssetPath or fmod_Bank_getPath. The description does not include prerequisites, context, or exclusions, leaving the agent without decision support.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description must disclose behavioral traits. It mentions it retrieves cursor position and returns a number, but does not state whether it is read-only, side effects, prerequisites (e.g., event must be loaded), or response format beyond 'number'. The reference '[method · Event.getCursorPosition]' adds little value.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is one sentence plus a reference. It is concise but could be more structured (e.g., separate return value and usage note). The reference is not essential.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given moderate complexity and no output schema, the description covers the return value but lacks preconditions and interaction details. An AI agent might need more context about event state or target format (path vs GUID), though the schema handles the latter.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, but the description adds meaningful constraints: the 'parameter' must be the event's Timeline or GameParameter, which is not obvious from the schema's type definition (string|number|boolean). This clarifies valid values beyond the schema.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description states it retrieves the cursor position and returns a number. The name 'fmod_Event_getCursorPosition' and parameter constraints (must be Timeline or GameParameter) distinguish it from sibling tools like fmod_Timeline_getCursorPosition and fmod_GameParameter_getCursorPosition, though not explicitly.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like fmod_Timeline_getCursorPosition or fmod_GameParameter_getCursorPosition. The description only explains what it does, not usage context or exclusions.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
The description discloses the blocking nature of the dialog, which is a key behavioral trait. However, it does not cover behavior like dismissal, multiple alerts, or return value, though annotations are absent.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is very concise, using one sentence to convey purpose and alias. It is front-loaded with the core action. Minor redundancy from the method reference could be trimmed.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple one-parameter tool with no output schema, the description provides sufficient context (blocking popup). It lacks details on return values or error handling but is adequate for basic usage.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
With 0% schema description coverage, the description must compensate. It merely states the parameter 'msg' without adding meaning, type constraints, or examples beyond what the schema provides.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool logs a message in a blocking popup dialog. It also notes it is an alias for studio.system.message, providing differentiation from sibling console logging tools.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
There is no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like fmod_console_log or fmod_console_warn. The alias note is helpful but does not specify context or exclusions.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided, so the description carries the burden. It mentions the consequence of not disconnecting but does not detail side effects, prerequisites, or behavior when already disconnected. Lacks sufficient transparency.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is concise at two sentences plus a bracketed note. The note may be extraneous but does not harm clarity. Could be slightly tighter, but overall efficient.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple disconnect tool with one parameter and no output schema, the description fails to specify the parameter's nature. Schema coverage is 0%, so the description should compensate but does not. Incomplete.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters1/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The single parameter 'connectFunction' has no description in the schema (0% coverage) and the tool description merely references it without explaining its type, source, or expected format. No added meaning.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description explicitly states the tool disconnects a connectFunction for cleanup, with a clear verb and resource. It distinguishes from sibling connect tools and explains the importance, leaving no ambiguity.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description says to disconnect when 'no longer needed' and warns about accumulation, but does not provide explicit when-not-to-use or alternative tools. Usage context is implied but not comprehensive.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided, so description must fully disclose behavior. It describes what it returns but does not mention potential errors, side effects, or array emptiness. Minimal context beyond the basic operation.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is redundant (same sentence twice) and includes extraneous text like '[method · window.browserSelection]'. Could be more concise and better structured.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
No output schema, so description should provide return format details. It says 'Array of selected ManagedObject s' but lacks specifics. With only one optional parameter, it is adequate but not complete.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description for tabName is minimal (' (optional)'), but the tool description explains its purpose: selecting a different browser tab. This adds meaningful context beyond the schema.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Clearly states it returns an array of selected ManagedObjects from the active browser tab, with optional tabName. However, it does not distinguish from siblings like fmod_window_browserCurrent, and the description repeats the same sentence.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. Only mentions optional tabName for selecting a different browser tab.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is very short and front-loaded with the purpose. However, the inclusion of '[method · console.warn]' is somewhat redundant and could be removed or integrated more cleanly. Overall efficient.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's simplicity (one parameter, no output schema), the description is minimally adequate. It could be improved by adding parameter guidance and more behavioral context, but it covers the basic purpose.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters1/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema has 0% description coverage for the only parameter 'msg', and the description adds no meaning about it. The agent receives no information about what the parameter should contain, its format, or constraints.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states that the tool logs a warning, which is a specific action on a specific resource. It also mentions it's an alias for 'studio.system.warn', which helps distinguish it from siblings like 'fmod_console_log' or 'fmod_console_error'.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description must convey behavioral traits. It only states the action without disclosing if the operation is destructive, asynchronous, or has side effects. Minimal transparency.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Extremely concise with one functional sentence and a method reference. No wasted words, but slightly more structure (e.g., separating context from action) could help. Still, it's appropriately brief.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the complexity of setting an impulse response from a file path, the description lacks important context such as file format support, asynchronous behavior, or requirement for existing effect chain. Neither output schema nor annotations compensate.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Both parameters are fully described in the input schema (100% coverage), so the description adds no additional meaning beyond what the schema provides. Baseline score of 3 is appropriate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description clearly states the action (sets) and resource (impulse response for a convolution reverb effect), and the bracketed method reference further identifies the tool. It effectively distinguishes from sibling tools by specifying the unique purpose.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, no prerequisites or exclusion cases provided. The description is purely functional without usage context.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided; description only states return type (boolean) and lacks disclosure of side effects, read-only nature, or behavioral constraints.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Extremely concise, two sentences, no redundant information.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100%, so description adds no new meaning; baseline score of 3 is appropriate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description clearly states the verb 'Reports' and the resource 'whether an event is 3D', but does not differentiate from sibling tools like fmod_Event_isOneShot or fmod_Event_isPlaying.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, nor any prerequisites or conditions.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries the sole burden of behavioral disclosure. It mentions 'enter the stopping event state' but does not explain what that means, side effects, or safety (e.g., destructive vs. read-only). This is insufficient for a state-changing command.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single, concise sentence with no wasted words. It includes a reference to the method. However, it could be slightly clearer by removing the extra spaces around the period.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool is a command that changes state, the description is minimal. It does not explain what happens after stopping, return values (though no output schema), or error conditions. The parameter schema is well-described, but overall completeness is lacking for a non-trivial operation.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema has 100% coverage with a clear description for the target parameter. The tool description adds no additional meaning beyond the schema, so a baseline score of 3 is appropriate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states it commands a playing event instance to enter the stopping event state, using a specific verb and resource. It distinguishes from siblings like fmod_Event_stopImmediate and fmod_Event_play by indicating the action is for a playing instance and the method name is included.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like stopImmediate or play. It does not specify prerequisites (e.g., event must be playing) or exclusions. The description lacks explicit usage context.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description fully bears the burden. It identifies the action as toggling (mutation) and specifies the context, but lacks details on side effects, permission requirements, or the returned state after toggling. Acceptable but not comprehensive.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Very concise: a single sentence plus a method reference. No wasted words, though it could benefit from slightly more detail without being verbose.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
No output schema exists, and the description doesn't explain what the tool returns (e.g., new recording state or success status). Given the toggle action, this is a notable gap. Sibling tools like fmod_Event_isRecording suggest state checking, but no links are provided.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The schema covers 100% of the single parameter ('target') with a clear description. The tool description adds no extra meaning, so the baseline of 3 applies.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the action ('Toggles the recording state') and the context ('profiler session'), which is specific and distinguishes it from sibling tools like fmod_Event_isRecording. However, it doesn't elaborate on what 'recording state' entails, leaving some ambiguity.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool vs alternatives such as fmod_Event_play or fmod_Event_isRecording. There is no mention of prerequisites (e.g., being in a profiler session) or when not to use it.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description should cover behavioral traits such as whether the tool has side effects or requires special permissions. It does not, leaving the agent uninformed about potential issues like error handling for invalid targets.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the simple single-parameter schema and no output schema, the description is minimally adequate but could improve by specifying the return format (e.g., returns a string GUID). It lacks details on what happens for invalid inputs.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema provides a detailed description of the 'target' parameter, achieving 100% coverage. The tool description adds no additional meaning beyond the schema, so a baseline score of 3 is appropriate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states that the tool retrieves the object's unique ID, which is distinct from sibling tools that get paths or other properties. However, the phrase 'property · ManagedObject.id' could be more explicit about the action.

Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives like fmod_ManagedObject_document or fmod_entity_properties. The description does not mention context or exclusions.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations exist, so the description must cover behavior. It describes the return condition adequately but omits details on error cases (e.g., invalid target) or side effects. For a simple boolean check, this is acceptable but not thorough.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description repeats the same sentence twice, which is redundant. A single sentence would suffice. The reference to the method is unnecessary. It is not concise despite being short.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
The tool is simple, but the description lacks information about return values (e.g., boolean true/false) and behavior on invalid input. Without an output schema, these details would be helpful. However, for a straightforward type check, it is minimally complete.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema already provides clear descriptions for both parameters (target and entityName). The tool description adds no additional meaning beyond what the schema offers. With 100% schema coverage, baseline 3 is appropriate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool returns true if the object has a matching entity or derived type. It specifies the verb and result but does not distinguish from the sibling tool 'fmod_ManagedObject_isOfExactType', so it's clear but not fully differentiated.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'isOfExactType'. The description does not specify context, prerequisites, or exclusions.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are present, so the description must disclose behavioral traits. It does not mention whether the curve overwrites existing settings, if the sound must be stopped, or any side effects. The minimal description fails to provide critical behavioral context.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is extremely concise: a single sentence plus a markdown reference. Every word is functional, and the structure is front-loaded with the main action. No wasted text.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool is simple (3 parameters, no nested objects, no output schema), the description is minimally adequate. However, it does not mention return values (e.g., void or success flag) or any preconditions, leaving room for improvement.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The description adds minimal value beyond the schema: it clarifies 'length' as duration and 'curveShape' as velocity with values explained, but this largely repeats the schema. No additional meaning is provided.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool sets the fade-out curve with specified length and shape, using a verb+resource pattern. However, it mentions 'instrument' while the tool name refers to 'Sound', introducing slight ambiguity. It does not explicitly distinguish from the sibling tool fmod_Sound_setFadeInCurve.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives like the fade-in curve setter. The description lacks context for prerequisites, timing, or conflicts with other operations.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided, and the description only says 'attempts to trigger', implying potential failure. It does not disclose side effects, permission requirements, or consequences of triggering an action.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is short (one sentence plus a reference), conveying core purpose efficiently. However, it could be more structured with additional context.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the simplicity (1 param, no output schema), the description lacks details on valid action values, error handling, and return values. The reference to window.actions helps but is insufficient.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The parameter actionType has no schema description (0% coverage). The description adds value by stating the action type is from window.actions enum, but does not list or link to that enum, leaving ambiguity.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states it triggers an action for the last active window, referencing the window.actions enum. This distinguishes it from sibling tools like fmod_window_open or fmod_window_navigateTo.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is very concise: one clear sentence plus a code-like comment example. It front-loads the purpose and avoids redundancy. The parentheses comment could be removed, but overall effective.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given no output schema and no annotations, the description provides a high-level purpose but lacks details on errors, prerequisites, and parameter constraints. The example aids understanding, but the tool's domain complexity demands more context for complete agent comprehension.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 67% (target and other have descriptions, relationship does not). The description adds an example for the 'relationship' parameter, which helps but does not specify its format or allowed values. Baseline is 3 due to high coverage; the example provides some additional meaning.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the action (add) and the resource (relationship) with an example involving 'banks' on an event. It distinguishes itself from the sibling 'fmod_remove_relationship' as the add counterpart. However, it could provide more context about the nature of relationships in FMOD for full clarity.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description includes an example but does not explicitly guide when to use this tool versus the many specialized 'add' siblings. It does not mention alternatives or constraints, leaving the agent to infer usage context.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations provided, the description must carry the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It only states the basic function and return type. It does not mention side effects (e.g., does it modify the track?), required permissions, error conditions, or the impact on the existing state. This is insufficient for a creation tool.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single sentence that efficiently conveys the core action and return type. It avoids unnecessary words. The inclusion of a method tag '[method · AudioTrack.addAutomationTrack]' adds context but is slightly duplicative. Overall, it is concise and well-structured.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's simplicity (3 parameters, no output schema), the description is reasonably complete but lacks critical usage context. It explains the result but not the preconditions or behavior. The siblings list indicates many related functions, but no cross-references are provided. For a straightforward creation tool, it meets minimal requirements but could be improved.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, and the schema descriptions are adequate (e.g., 'Any valid automatable property of the specified model.AutomatableObject'). The description adds no parameter-level detail beyond what the schema already provides, so a baseline score of 3 is appropriate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the action ('Creates'), the resource ('automation track'), and the context ('for a given property of an automatable object'). It also specifies the return type ('Returns the automation track ManagedObject'). It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like fmod_Event_addGroupTrack or fmod_MarkerTrack_addNamedMarker by focusing on automation tracks specific to AudioTrack.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives. There is no mention of prerequisites (e.g., that an AudioTrack must exist) or when not to use it. The description lacks explicit context for choosing this tool over other 'add' operations.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description must bear full burden. It only states creation and return of a ManagedObject, but fails to disclose side effects, permissions, or whether the operation is destructive. The minimal description leaves behavioral uncertainty.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is one sentence of 21 words, front-loaded with the core action. It includes a reference annotation in brackets which may aid traceability. However, it could be slightly more structured with separate sections for clarity.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool has 3 required parameters, no output schema, and no annotations, the description is minimally adequate. It states the return object but omits side effects, prerequisites, or behavioral context. Compensates partially by being clear about return type, but gaps remain.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents all three parameters. The description adds no additional parameter-level detail beyond echoing 'for a given property', which is already in the schema's parameter description.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states it creates a model.Modulator for a given property of an automatable object, and indicates it returns a ManagedObject. The verb 'Creates' and resource 'Modulator' are specific, but it does not explicitly distinguish from the similar sibling tool fmod_AutomatableObject_addAutomator.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description implies when to use it (when adding a modulator to an automatable object property) but provides no explicit guidance on when not to use it or how it differs from adding an automator. Usage context is only implicit.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries full burden. It mentions the composite nature but lacks details on side effects, error handling, atomicity, or return value.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is one front-loaded sentence listing the composite steps, efficiently conveying the essence without unnecessary words.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given four parameters and no output schema or annotations, the description lacks preconditions (e.g., folder existence), postconditions, and order of operations, making it incomplete for confident use.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 75% and the description adds no extra meaning beyond what the schema already provides for 'sound', 'bank_name', and 'folder_path'. The 'name' parameter is undocumented in both schema and description.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool creates an event and optionally imports a sound and assigns a bank. It explicitly lists equivalent sub-tools, distinguishing it from the many individual sibling tools.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The usage is implied by stating it's a composite of several steps, but no explicit guidance on when to use this vs alternatives, nor when not to use it.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations provided, the description bears full responsibility for behavioral disclosure. It only states that the tool returns a singleton instance but does not address failure modes (e.g., if the class is not a singleton, or if no instance exists), side effects (there are likely none), or any permissions required. The behavior is underspecified for an agent to use safely.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is very short and front-loaded with the core information. However, it contains a duplicated sentence ('Returns the singleton ManagedObject instance of a particular entity type.' appears twice) which is unnecessary and slightly reduces efficiency. Still, it wastes minimal words overall.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple tool with one parameter and no output schema, the description provides the essential purpose but lacks completeness regarding error conditions, assumptions, and relationship to sibling tools. It is minimally sufficient but leaves gaps that could confuse an agent, especially regarding singleton-specific semantics.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The schema provides 100% coverage for the single parameter 'className' with a description that includes examples ('Event', 'Bank', 'GroupTrack'). The tool description does not add additional semantic detail beyond what the schema already offers. Thus, the parameter information is adequate but not enhanced by the description.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states that it returns the singleton ManagedObject instance of a given entity type. The verb 'Returns' and specific resource 'singleton ManagedObject instance' make the purpose unambiguous. It distinguishes from sibling tools like fmod_entity_findInstances which finds all instances, and fmod_entity_isSingleton which checks if a type is a singleton.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as fmod_entity_findInstances or fmod_entity_isSingleton. It does not mention that the tool is only appropriate for singleton entity types, nor does it explain what happens if a non-singleton class name is provided. An agent could misuse this tool without explicit usage context.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations exist. The description only mentions returning a model but does not disclose side effects, state changes, or permissions. It carries the full disclosure burden but falls short.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Very concise two sentences, front-loading the action. Could include more information without becoming verbose.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple tool with one parameter and no output schema, the description is minimally adequate but lacks usage guidance and behavioral details.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema covers the single parameter with description. The tool description adds no extra meaning. Baseline for high coverage (100%) is 3.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the verb 'Adds' and the resource 'marker track' to an 'event', distinguishing it from sibling tools like addGameParameter or addGroupTrack. It also specifies the return value.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives (e.g., addGroupTrack). No context or prerequisites are provided.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations exist, so the description must fully disclose behavior. It mentions 'sets' (mutation) but lacks details on side effects, prerequisites (e.g., event must be playing?), error handling, or reversibility. The description is too minimal for a mutation tool.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is extremely concise: one sentence plus a method reference. No unnecessary words or repetition. It earns its place.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
The description lacks essential context for an AI agent to correctly use the tool, such as the expected structure of the 'attributes' object (position, orientation, etc.), coordinate system, or that it applies to auditioned instances. Given the complexity of 3D attributes, more detail is needed.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% with descriptions for both parameters. The description adds no additional meaning beyond the schema; it merely restates that attributes are a '3D attributes object'. Baseline of 3 is appropriate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the verb 'Sets' and the resource '3D attributes of an event instance'. It distinguishes from sibling fmod_Event_get3DAttributes by specifying the action. The reference to 'being auditioned' adds specific context.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives. There are many sibling event manipulation tools (e.g., play, stop, setCursorPosition) but no comparison or contextual advice.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, description carries burden. 'Retrieves' implies read-only, but no mention of preconditions, side effects, or error states. Adequate but minimal.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Two concise sentences with a code reference. Slight typo ('parameter 's') but overall efficient and front-loaded.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Covers purpose and return type but lacks explanation of cursor position units (e.g., seconds) and error conditions. Adequate for a simple getter with good parameter schema.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%; parameter description in schema is sufficient. Description adds no additional semantics beyond the global user parameter context.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description clearly states it retrieves the cursor position of a global user parameter, distinguishing it from sibling tools like fmod_Event_getCursorPosition and fmod_Timeline_getCursorPosition. However, it does not explicitly differentiate from fmod_ParameterProxy_getCursorPosition.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like fmod_Event_getCursorPosition or fmod_Timeline_getCursorPosition. Implicit from name but no explicit context or exclusion criteria.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description fails to disclose behavioral traits such as mutability, reversibility, required permissions, or side effects. It only states the action without discussing consequences or constraints.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Single sentence with a method reference in brackets. No redundant words; perfectly concise for the stated purpose.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the lack of annotations and output schema, the description is too sparse. It does not explain how cursor position behaves for different parameter types, error conditions, or return values, leaving the agent underinformed.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The description adds no new meaning beyond 'to a number', and the schema already describes 'target' and 'position' succinctly.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the verb 'Sets', the resource 'cursor position of the global, user, or built-in parameter', and the value type 'number'. It differentiates from sibling tools like fmod_Event_setCursorPosition by specifying 'GameParameter' in the name and description.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like fmod_Event_setCursorPosition or fmod_ParameterProxy_setCursorPosition. The description does not mention prerequisites or context for use.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. It mentions the return value but does not disclose side effects, error conditions, permissions, or implications of adding a transition marker.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Single sentence with a reference to the FMOD API method. Front-loaded and efficient, though could be slightly more structured.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
No output schema; description does explain return value. However, lacks details about parameter relationships, error handling, or how the transition marker integrates with existing markers. Adequate but not thorough.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% with descriptions for all three parameters. The description adds no additional meaning beyond the schema, so baseline 3 is appropriate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Clearly states the action ('adds a transition marker') and the resource ('the track'), and specifies the return value ('newly created TransitionMarker ManagedObject'). Distinguishes from sibling tools like addNamedMarker and addRegion.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, no prerequisites or context for invocation. The description is purely operational.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Discloses that the array order matches addition order, which is a behavioral detail. However, with no annotations, more transparency is expected (e.g., side effects, permissions, limits).
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Two sentences but the second is a near-duplicate of the first, adding unnecessary repetition. Could be more concise.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Explains what is returned and order, but does not describe the structure of individual menu item descriptions. Without output schema, more detail would improve completeness.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
No parameters, so baseline is 4. Description adds meaning about return value and order, meeting expectations for a parameterless tool.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Clearly states the tool returns an array of menu item descriptions added via addMenuItem, and that order matches addition order. Distinguishes from sibling add/remove tools but the description has a redundant/confusing duplicate sentence.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool vs alternatives (e.g., addMenuItem, removeMenuItem). Does not specify prerequisites or typical use cases.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It only states that the callback is called on import, but does not disclose whether multiple callbacks can be set, if it replaces existing ones, or any side effects. The behavioral transparency is minimal.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single sentence plus a bracket notation, very concise and front-loaded. Every part adds value without redundancy.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the low complexity (1 parameter, no output schema), the description is adequate but incomplete. It explains purpose and signature but does not cover when to use vs. disconnect, or any return/behavioral details. Lacks usage context that would be helpful with sibling tools.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The single parameter 'callback' is fully covered by the schema (100% coverage), and the description adds the signature 'function(audioFile)', which provides additional meaning beyond the schema's description. This helps the agent understand the expected callback format.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the verb 'sets' and the resource 'function to be called' with the event 'audio file imported'. It provides the callback signature. However, it does not explicitly differentiate from sibling tools like 'fmod_project_audioFileImported_disconnect' or 'fmod_project_audioFileImported', though the purpose is distinct enough.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description lacks any guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. It does not mention when to connect vs disconnect, or any prerequisites such as the project being loaded. No usage context is provided beyond the basic action.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations provided, the description must fully disclose behavioral traits, but it only states 'Imports an audio asset' and 'Returns an model.' It does not specify if the import is immediate, if it overwrites existing assets, required permissions, or error cases. The grammatical error ('an model') also reduces clarity.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is very concise with two short sentences. It is front-loaded with the main action. However, the second sentence is vague and contains a grammatical error, slightly reducing effectiveness.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool has one parameter, no output schema, and no annotations, the description provides the basic purpose. However, it lacks details on return type (model), supported file formats, and whether the import is synchronous or has side effects. It is minimally adequate.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The schema has 100% coverage for the single parameter (filePath), explicitly describing it as 'The absolute path to the file's location.' The description adds no additional parameter meaning, so the baseline score of 3 is appropriate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the action: 'Imports an audio asset into the project.' It uses a specific verb and resource, and the context of sibling tools (many fmod_Asset_* and fmod_project_*) distinguishes it as the primary import function for audio assets.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives, such as importing from other sources or using asset-related tools. There is no mention of prerequisites, limitations, or when not to use it.

Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
The description is adequate for a tool with 4 required parameters and no output schema. It states the purpose but misses details like valid values for min/max or how the returned ManagedObject can be used. For an AI agent, it is moderately complete.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema has 100% description coverage, so the baseline is 3. The description adds 'for a given parameter' but does not further explain the semantics of min, max, or target beyond what the schema already states. Thus, no significant extra value.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the verb ('Adds'), resource ('parameter condition'), and target ('triggerable object'), and distinguishes from siblings by its specific action. It also mentions the return type, leaving no ambiguity about the tool's function.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It states basic behavior (shows dialog, returns widget) but omits details such as whether the dialog is non-modal (though name implies it), what triggers its closure, or any side effects. The description is minimal.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is short (two sentences plus a tag) and front-loaded with the key action. Every sentence serves a purpose, and there is no wasted text.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple tool with no parameters and no output schema, the description is adequate but could be more complete. It fails to contrast with the sibling 'showModalDialog' tool, which would help an agent decide between them. Given no annotations, some additional context (e.g., non-blocking behavior) would improve completeness.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema has no parameters (0 parameters, 100% coverage). The description does not add parameter info because none exist. Baseline for 0 parameters is 4, and the description meets this without needing to add further meaning.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states that the tool displays a dialog window and returns a sibling widget. It is specific about the verb ('displays') and resource ('dialog window'), but does not explicitly differentiate from the sibling tool 'fmod_ui_showModalDialog', though the name and the tag hint at modeless behavior.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple retrieval tool with no output schema, the description covers the return type and purpose. However, it omits error conditions or expected input formats beyond the schema, making it only minimally complete.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% and the single parameter 'target' is well-described in the schema. The description does not add extra meaning beyond the schema, so baseline score of 3 is appropriate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description clearly states the tool retrieves the bank's path identifier and returns a string. The verb 'retrieves' and resource 'bank's unique path identifier' are specific. Although sibling tools like fmod_Event_getPath exist, the name and context differentiate it.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives or any prerequisites. It simply describes the function without suggesting context or excluding cases.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description carries full burden. It discloses that a new ManagedObject is created and returned, but does not mention potential side effects (e.g., if a return track with the same name already exists) or any required permissions. The behavioral description is minimal.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is extremely concise: two sentences that efficiently convey the action, input, and output. The first sentence is front-loaded with the core purpose, and the second sentence provides a method reference. No waste.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple creation tool with no output schema, the description covers the basics: what it does and what it returns. However, it lacks contextual details such as whether the operation is idempotent, any constraints on the event, or error conditions. Given the tool's low complexity, it is minimally adequate.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3. The description does not add additional meaning beyond the schema descriptions for 'name' and 'target'. It only repeats that the name is assigned to the track, which is already clear from the schema.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states 'Adds a return track with the given name to the event', specifying the verb (adds), resource (return track), and context (event). This distinguishes it from sibling tools like fmod_Event_addGroupTrack or fmod_Event_addMarkerTrack by naming the specific track type.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives. There is no mention of prerequisites, such as the event needing to exist or be in a certain state, nor are alternative methods for adding tracks compared.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are present, and the description only states the return value. It does not disclose any prerequisites, side effects, or requirements (e.g., event must be valid, must be playing). The bare minimum is provided.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is two sentences, the second essentially repeating the first. While not verbose, it could be condensed without loss. Still acceptably concise.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple boolean query with no output schema, the description explains the return value. It lacks error conditions or edge cases, but is mostly complete for the tool's simplicity.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% with a clear description of the 'target' parameter. The description adds no additional meaning beyond the schema, so baseline 3 applies.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool reports whether an event instance is stopping, with a specific verb and resource. It is distinct from siblings like isPlaying, isPaused, etc.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus other status-checking tools like isPlaying or isPaused. The agent is left to infer appropriate usage.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description carries the burden. It implies a read-only operation via 'Retrieves', but does not explicitly state it is non-destructive or require special permissions. For a simple getter, this is adequate but could be clearer.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is very short and to the point, but the redundant sentence 'Returns the effective output format for a model.' does not add value and slightly detracts from clarity. Still, it is not overly verbose.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
The description lacks details on the return value structure or type, and no output schema exists. For a getter, knowing the format of the output (e.g., string, object) is important. The mention of 'effective output format' is vague.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema already fully describes the target parameter (100% coverage). The description adds no additional meaning or format details beyond what is in the schema, so baseline 3 applies.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states it retrieves the output format of the bus, distinguishing it from the sibling fmod_MixerBus_getInputFormat. However, the phrase 'Returns the effective output format for a model' introduces ambiguity as it switches from 'bus' to 'model', which could confuse agents.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No explicit when-to-use guidance is provided. The sibling tool for input format implies the distinction, but the description does not clarify when to choose output over input format or other bus-related tools.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, and the description only states 'remove' without detailing behavioral traits such as whether removal is permanent, what happens if the relationship does not exist, or any side effects. The user must infer behavior from the brief code-like representation.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is extremely concise, consisting of one sentence plus a code-like representation. It conveys the essential meaning without any redundant information.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
The description covers the core purpose but lacks details on return values, error handling, or examples. Given the tool has three required parameters and no output schema, additional context would be helpful, but the description is not severely incomplete.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The description adds a code representation that clarifies the meaning of the 'target.relationships[name].remove(other)' pattern, which helps understand the role of 'relationship' as a name. However, it does not elaborate beyond the schema descriptions, and the 'relationship' parameter lacks a description in the schema, but the tool description partially compensates.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description explicitly states the action ('Remove an object'), the resource ('one of a target's relationships'), and provides a code representation that clarifies the syntax. It also clearly distinguishes from the sibling tool fmod_add_relationship.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description does not provide any guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like fmod_add_relationship. No context on prerequisites, failure conditions, or typical use cases.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
The description notes that the tool is 'blocking' and returns null on cancellation, which are key behavioral traits. However, since no annotations exist, more detail could be beneficial, such as whether it waits indefinitely or has a timeout, and how it handles non-numeric input. Adequate but not fully transparent.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is very short, with one meaningful sentence and a note on optional args. It is front-loaded with the core action. The inclusion of '[method · system.getNumber]' is extraneous but not harmful. Could remove the bracketed note for better conciseness.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
The tool is simple with no output schema, so the description adequately covers the basic flow. However, it lacks detail on input validation (e.g., whether it rejects non-numeric strings) and the response format beyond 'returns the value.' Completeness is middling.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 50% (only defaultText has a brief 'optional' note). The description adds 'bracketed args are optional' but does not explain the purpose or format of msg or defaultText. Given low coverage and minimal added meaning, this dimension scores low.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool 'prompts for numeric input and returns the value, or null if cancelled (blocking).' This specifies the action (prompting) and resource (numeric input from the system), and it differentiates from sibling tools like getFile or getText by focusing on numbers.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives. The description does not mention contexts where numeric input is needed or when to prefer it over other input methods, leaving the agent without decision support.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
The description explicitly states 'blocking' and 'popup dialog', which are important behavioral traits. However, with no annotations, it relies solely on this brief description. It does not mention return behavior, side effects, or conditions under which the popup may not appear.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single sentence plus a tag, which is concise and to the point. It front-loads the key action and behavior. However, it could be slightly expanded to cover parameter usage without losing conciseness.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's simplicity (one parameter, no output schema, no annotations), the description provides the core purpose and a key behavioral trait. However, it lacks usage guidelines and parameter semantics, leaving gaps that could confuse an agent about when and how to use it.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The parameter 'msg' has no description in the schema or the tool description. The description only states the tool logs a message but does not explain what the parameter represents (e.g., the content of the message, formats, or constraints). With 0% schema description coverage, the description fails to compensate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states 'Logs a message in a popup dialog (blocking)', specifying the action (log), the output (popup dialog), and a key behavioral trait (blocking). This distinguishes it from siblings like fmod_system_print (likely console output) and other logging tools.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like fmod_system_print or fmod_system_warn. The description implies it's for user-facing blocking messages, but does not state when to prefer it over other logging methods.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
The description explains the behavioral concept (how the widget consumes space and reacts to space changes). However, with no annotations, it fails to disclose valid enumeration values, side effects of setting, or whether the operation is destructive. Schema coverage helps slightly but the description does not enumerate values.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is two concise sentences, front-loaded with the tool's nature as an enumeration and immediate behavioral explanation. No unnecessary words.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple enumeration tool with no output schema and incomplete annotations, the description adequately explains the concept but misses typical usage patterns and valid value constraints, making it only moderately complete.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% with a clear description for the 'value' parameter. The tool description adds no additional meaning beyond the schema, so a baseline score of 3 is appropriate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states that this tool corresponds to the size policy enumeration for a widget, explaining what size policy determines. It distinguishes from sibling UI property tools by its specific property name, but does not explicitly differentiate from similar enumeration tools like alignment or orientation.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. It does not mention context or prerequisites, leaving the agent to infer usage from the sibling tool set (all UI-related).
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Lacking annotations, the description only states it returns an array of selected ManagedObjects. It does not disclose potential edge cases (empty array, invalid editor state), performance traits, or side effects. A simple read operation is implied but not explicit.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is short but contains a duplicated sentence, which wastes space. It could be streamlined to a single sentence for better conciseness.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
No parameters exist, and schema coverage is 100%. The description adds no parameter details, which is acceptable given the absence of parameters. Baseline 4 for zero-parameter tools.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states it returns selected ManagedObjects from the last active editor, with an example (multitrack view). However, it repeats the same sentence twice, slightly reducing clarity, and does not differentiate from siblings like fmod_window_editorCurrent.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives (e.g., fmod_window_editorCurrent, fmod_window_browserSelection). The description assumes the agent already knows when to query editor selection.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- 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 for behavioral disclosure. It states the return value but does not mention side effects, required permissions, or behavior in edge cases (e.g., invalid target).
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
The description is adequate for a simple query tool with one parameter, but it could be more complete by explicitly stating the return type (true/false) and noting that the tool does not modify state, especially given the absence of an output schema.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema covers 100% of parameters with good descriptions. The tool description adds no new information about the 'target' parameter beyond what the schema provides, achieving the baseline for complete schema coverage.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
With no parameters and no output schema, the description is minimally sufficient. It explains the return value but does not cover potential edge cases (e.g., empty selection, no active window).
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters5/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema has no parameters (100% coverage). Description adds meaning by specifying the return value context (selected ManagedObjects in the deck). This exceeds the baseline of 4 for zero-parameter tools.

Single sentence with no extraneous text. The action and resource are front-loaded. The reference notation is minimal and acceptable.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple getter with one parameter and no output schema, the description covers the basics. However, it lacks context about when to use this tool among many sibling path getters, and no behavioral details beyond the return type.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100%, so the schema already details the 'target' parameter. The description adds no extra parameter information, meeting the baseline expectation.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the action ('retrieves') and the resource ('event's unique path identifier') and specifies the return type as a string. This distinguishes it from sibling tools like fmod_Bank_getPath and other Event methods.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No explicit guidance on when to use this versus sibling tools like fmod_Bank_getPath or fmod_MixerStrip_getPath. The name implies event-specific usage, but given many similar path-retrieval tools, explicit alternatives would improve clarity.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description carries the full burden. It describes a read operation but does not confirm safety, side effects, permissions, or any behavioral traits. Minimal disclosure beyond 'Read'.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
A single, focused sentence with no extraneous words. It is efficiently front-loaded with the core purpose.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
The description does not explain the return value (likely the property value) since there is no output schema. It covers the tool's scope adequately but lacks details on what the response contains, which is important for a read operation.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The schema covers target with a sufficient description but property lacks description (50% coverage). The description adds meaning by stating that property includes dynamic, per-class managed properties (e.g., 'timeline'), which compensates for the schema gap.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states it reads any property of an object, including dynamic ones not in static reference (e.g., 'timeline'). This distinguishes it from sibling tools like 'fmod_set_property' and 'fmod_entity_properties'. The verb 'Read' and resource 'property' are specific.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives (e.g., 'fmod_entity_properties' for static properties, or 'fmod_ManagedObject_properties'). The description implies it is for dynamic properties but does not explicitly state when not to use it.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. Discloses that references are also deleted and return value is boolean, but does not mention reversibility, permissions, or error cases beyond returning false.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Two sentences: first explains deletion effect, second explains return value. Includes method reference but no fluff. Front-loaded and efficient.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a single-parameter delete operation with boolean return, description covers input, effect, and output. Lacks context on permissions or failure modes, but adequate given simplicity.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Parameter description in schema already states 'The managed object to delete.' Description adds no further insight. Baseline 3 for 100% schema coverage.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description clearly states verb 'deletes' and resource 'ManagedObject and its references, if any, from the project'. It distinguishes from sibling tools like fmod_remove_relationship (removes relationships) and other delete-like operations.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives (e.g., fmod_remove_relationship for relationships). Does not mention prerequisites or when it's appropriate to call.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are present, so the description must carry full behavioral burden. It only states it exports and returns a boolean, omitting details like file location, overwrite behavior, or error conditions. For a mutation-like operation, more transparency is needed.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single concise sentence followed by a tag, front-loading the core action and return type. Every part earns its place with no redundancy.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple tool with no parameters and no output schema, the description is minimally adequate. However, it lacks context about where the file is exported, any required project state, and error handling. A score of 3 reflects the basic but incomplete coverage.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
There are zero parameters, and schema coverage is 100%. The description does not need to add parameter meaning but confirms the tool takes no arguments. This is adequate, though no extra semantics are provided beyond the schema.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description uses a specific verb 'Exports' and identifies the resource 'project guids.txt', clearly distinguishing it from sibling tools like 'fmod_project_build' or 'fmod_project_save'. It also specifies the return value type, aiding understanding.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives. While there is no direct sibling for exporting GUIDs, the description does not mention prerequisites or context, leaving the agent to guess.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided, so description carries burden. It discloses return type (number) and context (associated event), but does not address side effects, permissions, or state requirements (e.g., timeline must be loaded). Adequate but not comprehensive.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Two sentences, no wasted words. The main action is front-loaded. The bracketed note is minor but not detrimental. Highly efficient.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Tool is simple with one parameter and no output schema. Description says it returns a number within event context, but could clarify units (samples/seconds) or validity (e.g., during playback). Adequate for minimal case.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema has 100% coverage for the single parameter 'target', which is described inline. Description adds no further semantic detail, so baseline 3 applies.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description clearly states it retrieves the timeline's cursor position, with a specific verb and resource. Differentiates from sibling tools like fmod_Timeline_setCursorPosition and fmod_Event_getCursorPosition.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. Lacks explicit context, prerequisites, or exclusions, leaving the agent to infer from the name alone.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
The description mentions the return type (TransitionRegion ManagedObject) but does not disclose side effects, required permissions, or constraints such as valid positions or lengths. With no annotations, more behavioral context would be helpful.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single sentence plus a reference note. It is concise and front-loads the purpose. However, it could be slightly improved with bullet points or clearer structure for complex parameters.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's complexity (4 params, no output schema), the description covers the basic purpose and return type but lacks explanation of what a transition region is, its difference from regions/markers, and any usage context. It is adequate but not comprehensive.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema already has 100% coverage with descriptions for all parameters. The description adds minimal extra meaning beyond restating the schema. It reiterates 'position' and 'length' but does not clarify their format or constraints.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the action: adding a transition region to a track with position and length, and that it returns a ManagedObject. It distinguishes from sibling MarkerTrack tools (addNamedMarker, addRegion, addTransitionMarker) by specifying 'transition region'.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description does not provide explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like addTransitionMarker or addRegion. The usage is implied from the action 'add transition region', but no contextual when-to-use or when-not-to-use advice is given.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. It implies a read operation ('Retrieves') but does not explicitly state side-effect-free behavior or other traits like idempotency. Minimal disclosure.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Extremely concise: two sentences with no unnecessary words. Information is front-loaded and efficient.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple getter with one parameter and no output schema, the description is adequate. It identifies the tool's purpose and return. However, it could explain what the path identifier is used for or how the model is structured.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% with parameter descriptions already present. The tool description adds no additional meaning beyond what the schema provides.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description clearly states the action: 'Retrieves the mixer strip's unique path identifier' and specifies the return: 'Returns the model.' It distinguishes from sibling getPath tools by specifying 'mixer strip', making the target resource clear.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like fmod_Bank_getPath or fmod_Event_getPath. The description does not provide any context for selection or exclusion.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description carries the full burden. It explains the callback signature and the 'success' argument's meaning, and mentions build cancellation. However, it does not disclose whether multiple callbacks can be set, if it replaces prior connections, or what the function (implicitly a signal connection) returns. Behavioral details are moderate.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description uses two sentences to state purpose and add signature detail, with an example. It is relatively concise but the example code snippet could be clarified. No extraneous text.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple callback-setting tool with one parameter and no output schema, the description provides essential information. However, it lacks mention of return value or side effects (e.g., whether connection persists). With no annotations, this is adequate but not fully comprehensive.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description is generic ('A callback function...'), but the tool description adds crucial semantics: the callback's signature (function(success)) and the meaning of success (false on error/cancel, true otherwise). This significantly aids understanding beyond the schema for the single parameter.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool sets a callback function to be invoked after banks are built, with a specific verb-resource pair ('Sets a function to be called after banks are built'). It distinguishes itself from siblings like fmod_project_buildEnded_disconnect and fmod_project_buildEnded by specifying it's the connection variant.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description does not provide guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like fmod_project_buildEnded_disconnect or other connection tools. It lacks context on prerequisites, use cases, or conditions that would help an AI agent decide to invoke it.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided, so the description carries full burden. It discloses that failing to disconnect can cause signals to accumulate and lead to unexpected behavior, which is a behavioral warning. However, it does not describe the exact effects of disconnection (e.g., idempotency, state changes).
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Two clear sentences plus a reference. Efficient and front-loaded, though the first sentence could be slightly more direct. No wasted words.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple parameterless tool, the description covers purpose and consequence of not using. It does not explain how to obtain the connectFunction, but that is likely documented in the connect tool's description. Given the simplicity, it is adequately complete.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
No parameters exist, so schema coverage is 100%. The description adds no parameter information, but with zero parameters, the baseline is 4. Nothing needed beyond what the schema provides.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description states it disconnects a 'connectFunction' when no longer needed, and the bracketed '[method · project.buildEnded.disconnect]' clarifies it relates to the buildEnded event. It distinguishes from its sibling connect tool, but could be more explicit about what the connectFunction is.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
It advises disconnecting 'once it is no longer needed' and warns about not doing so, but lacks explicit when-to-use versus alternatives (e.g., other disconnect tools). The guidance is general and implied.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description must fully disclose behavior. It states the return type (array of strings) but does not mention whether the operation is read-only, whether it triggers any side effects, or if any permissions are needed. For a simple query tool, the lack of explicit safety info is acceptable but not ideal.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description contains redundant repetition: 'Returns an array of strings that lists all available plugins.' is stated twice. This wastes space and could be more concise. The bracketed '[method · project.findAvailablePlugins]' is unnecessary. Conciseness suffers from redundancy.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given there is no output schema, the description correctly indicates the return value is an array of strings listing plugins. It does not elaborate on the format or possible contents, but for a simple enumeration tool, this is sufficient. No missing critical information.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The tool has no parameters, so the input schema is fully covered. The description adds no parameter-specific information, but none is needed. Baseline for 0 params is 4, and the description's brief mention of returning all plugins suffices.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states that the tool returns an array of strings listing all available plugins. The verb 'find' is appropriate and the resource 'plugins' is specific. Among siblings, no other tool has a similar purpose, so it is well-distinguished.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. It does not mention any prerequisites, context, or exclusions. Given the large list of sibling tools, usage guidelines would be helpful but are absent.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations exist, so the description must fully disclose behavior. It only states the return value but omits any potential side effects, permissions, error cases (e.g., no active window), or whether the object is a reference or copy. Repetition adds no value.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description repeats the same sentence verbatim, wasting space. It could be condensed to one sentence. The tag provides some additional structure but the repetition reduces conciseness.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given no output schema, the description adequately describes the return value (ManagedObject), though it could be more explicit about the object's role. No other context is essential.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
There are no parameters, so schema coverage is trivially 100%. The description adds no extra meaning beyond the schema, but with zero params, no enhancement is needed.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the verb 'Returns' and the resource 'currently selected ManagedObject in the deck of the last active window', which is specific and distinguishes it from sibling getters like fmod_window_browserCurrent or fmod_window_editorCurrent.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description implies usage when you need the deck selection, but provides no explicit guidance on when to use vs alternatives, no exclusions, and no context about prerequisites or typical use cases.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations provided, the description carries full burden for behavioral disclosure. It states the tool is a mutation (sets path) and returns a boolean for success/failure, but does not disclose side effects, permission requirements, error conditions, or whether the operation is reversible. The mention of 'relative to project assets directory' adds some context, but overall depth is insufficient for a mutation tool.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is two sentences plus a reference, all front-loaded with key information. Every sentence earns its place: action, relative directory, return value, and source. No wasted words.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple two-parameter tool with no output schema, the description provides the return type (true/false) and context about relative paths. However, it lacks completeness for a mutation tool—no mention of prerequisites (e.g., asset must be a file asset), potential failure modes, or validation behavior. Adequate but could be richer.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% (both parameters described), so baseline is 3. The description adds value by clarifying that the filePath is relative to the project assets directory, which is not specified in the schema's parameter description ('The path to move the asset to'). This extra context improves semantics.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the action ('Sets the path of the file the asset refers to'), identifies the resource ('the asset'), and specifies the scope ('relative to the project assets directory'). This distinguishes it from sibling tools like fmod_Asset_getAssetPath (which retrieves the path) and fmod_Asset_getAbsoluteAssetPath (which returns absolute path).
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description implies usage for modifying asset file references but provides no explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, nor when not to use it. It lacks prerequisites or conditions for successful operation.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. It discloses the key behavioral traits (immediate stop, skipping stopping state) but does not mention side effects, resource cleanup, or requirements (e.g., event must be playing).
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single, front-loaded sentence with no wasted words. It efficiently conveys the core action and distinguishing feature.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
No output schema, but return values are not critical for a stop action. However, missing context includes prerequisites (event must be valid and playing), error conditions, and what happens to associated resources. For a simple tool, it is adequate but not fully complete.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3. The description adds no further meaning to the target parameter beyond what the schema already provides.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the verb (stops), the resource (event instance), and the specific behavior (immediately, skipping the stopping event state). It distinguishes from sibling fmod_Event_stopNonImmediate by noting this key difference.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description implies usage by contrasting with non-immediate stop but does not explicitly state when to use this tool over alternatives or provide prerequisites. Guidance is implicit via the 'skipping the stopping event state' phrase.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided, so the description carries full burden. It discloses the return value (ManagedObject) but does not discuss side effects, permissions, error handling, or preconditions (e.g., existing marker track).
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Two concise sentences; first sentence states the action and context, second states the return. No wasted words. Includes method reference for developers.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's simplicity, input schema covers parameters, and no output schema exists, the description is largely complete. However, it could explicitly state that target must be a MarkerTrack object and clarify behavior for duplicate names.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3. The description does not add extra meaning beyond what the schema already provides; it only mentions 'at the given position', which is inferred from the 'position' parameter.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the action ('Adds a destination marker') and the resource ('to the marker track at the given position'), and distinguishes it from sibling tools like 'addTransitionMarker' by specifying 'destination marker'.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description implies usage (add destination marker) but does not explicitly guide when to use this tool versus alternatives (e.g., addRegion, addTransitionMarker). No when-not-to or context provided.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
The description discloses the return type (true/false for success or failure), which adds behavioral context beyond the empty input schema. However, it does not mention any side effects or speed implications of saving, leaving some transparency gaps.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is just two sentences. Every word is necessary, and the structure is direct. No extraneous information.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a zero-parameter save operation with no output schema, the description is reasonably complete. It states the action and return value, but could optionally mention that it persists the current state of the project.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
There are no parameters, and schema coverage is 100%. Per the guidelines, zero parameters earn a baseline of 4. The description adds no parameter information because none is needed.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool 'saves the project'. Among sibling tools, there is no other tool with 'save' in its name, so it distinguishes from alternatives.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus other project-related tools like fmod_project_create or fmod_project_build. The description assumes the user knows when to save.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Explains how values are auto-embedded (numbers/booleans as literals, paths/GUIDs as references, else string). However, no annotations exist, and the description does not disclose side effects such as immediate application, persistence, or error handling.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Single sentence with excellent front-loading. Every part is informative, no redundancy. Includes example and value embedding details without extra fluff.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the simplicity (3 parameters, no output schema), the description covers main functionality and value embedding. It could mention return value or error cases but remains sufficient for basic use.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The schema covers only target parameter. Description adds meaning for value (auto-embedding rules) but says nothing about property, which remains undocumented. Overall, partial compensation for low schema coverage.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the action ('Set any property of an object') with concrete examples ('instrument 'audioFile' = an asset, or 'name'). It distinguishes from sibling 'fmod_get_property' by focusing on setting rather than getting.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description provides general guidance on when to set properties but lacks explicit when-not-to-use or alternatives. No mention of prerequisites or context for choosing this over get_property.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior4/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Description mentions blocking nature and returns null if cancelled. No annotations provided, so description carries burden. It lacks details on error handling, dialog appearance, or side effects, but the core behavior (blocking text input) is disclosed. Could be more comprehensive but sufficient for basic understanding.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Single sentence efficiently conveys purpose and key behavior (blocking, returns null). Includes note on optional arguments and method signature. Could be slightly more structured (e.g., separate return behavior), but overall concise and front-loaded.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple input tool with no output schema, description covers return value (string or null) and blocking behavior. However, it does not mention error conditions, platform-specific behavior, or whether it can be called in non-UI contexts. Given schema coverage and sibling set, description is mostly adequate but lacks depth.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Parameters 'msg' and 'defaultText' have minimal descriptions in schema (empty for msg, '(optional)' for defaultText). Description does not add meaning beyond schema, such as format, constraints, or usage examples. With 50% schema coverage, description fails to compensate; it only mentions optionality of bracketed args.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description clearly states it prompts for text input and returns the string or null. Verb 'prompts for text input' and resource 'text input' are specific. Distinguishes from sibling tools like fmod_system_getNumber (number input) and fmod_system_message (display message).
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Description indicates blocking behavior but does not explicitly state when to use vs alternatives like fmod_system_getNumber or fmod_system_question. No guidance on when not to use or prerequisites. For a simple input tool, the context is somewhat implied but lacks explicit directives.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It states 'blocking' and return type, but lacks details on error handling, cancellation behavior, or input validation beyond the schema types.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single, front-loaded sentence that efficiently conveys the tool's action, return type, and blocking nature. No unnecessary words.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's simplicity (yes/no prompt, boolean output), the description covers the essential behavioral and output aspects. Without an output schema, it still specifies the return value. Minor gaps in parameter explanation are the only shortcoming.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 0%, yet the description does not explain the 'msg' parameter beyond 'given message'. It adds no semantic value over the schema, leaving the agent uncertain about expected message content or format.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states that the tool prompts for a yes/no response and returns a boolean. It includes 'blocking' and a method reference, distinguishing it from siblings like fmod_system_getText which get arbitrary text input.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines4/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description implies usage for yes/no prompts and notes blocking behavior. However, it does not explicitly mention when not to use it or suggest alternatives, but the context is sufficiently clear for a simple prompt tool.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior4/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations provided, the description carries the burden of disclosing behavior. It correctly indicates this is a read-only introspective operation ('keys of studio.project.model'), implying no side effects. However, it could explicitly state that it is non-destructive and safe to call.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single, well-structured sentence that front-loads the action and resource. Every word adds value, with no redundancy.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given no output schema, the description adequately implies the return value (a list of names). It could be more explicit about the return format (e.g., 'returns an array of strings'), but the current phrasing is sufficient for a simple list operation.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema has zero parameters and 100% coverage, so the description does not need to explain parameters. Baseline is 3 as per guidelines; no additional parameter context is added.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description uses a specific verb ('List') and resource ('class/entity names') and clearly states the source ('project model'). It effectively distinguishes this tool from siblings like fmod_describe_class, which focuses on individual classes.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description implies usage for introspection but does not explicitly state when to use this tool versus alternatives like fmod_describe_class or fmod_entity_properties. No when-not-to-use guidance is provided.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior4/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Without annotations, the description carries the transparency burden. It discloses a write operation ('adds') and return of a ManagedObject. This is sufficient for a simple creation tool, though it could mention potential side effects or permissions needed. No contradictions.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is two sentences: first states the action and location, second the return value. It includes a method reference for context but no fluff. Front-loaded and efficient.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple 2-parameter tool with no output schema, the description covers the essential action and return. However, it does not mention error handling or behavior when the target is invalid, which would improve completeness.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The description adds no extra meaning beyond the schema; it merely reiterates the position parameter implicitly. The schema already explains both parameters adequately.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the action ('Adds a sustain point'), the target ('to the track'), the input ('at the given position'), and the return value ('Returns the SustainPoint ManagedObject'). It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like addNamedMarker and addRegion by explicitly naming 'sustain point'.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description does not provide explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. While the name and sibling context imply it's for adding sustain points, there is no statement of prerequisites, when-not-to-use, or comparison with similar tools.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. It states the operation builds banks, returns true/false. However, it does not disclose whether the operation is synchronous or async, side effects (e.g., overwriting files), or error behavior. Adequate but could be more detailed.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Single sentence with return info and reference tag. Every part is informative and non-redundant. Front-loaded with the core action.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Zero parameters, so no param info needed. Baseline is 4 for 0 params. Description adds no extra parameter info as there are none.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description clearly states it builds all banks to all platforms from preferences. The verb 'Builds' and resource 'banks' are specific. It distinguishes from sibling tools like event hooks (buildStarted/buildEnded) and other project actions (create, save).
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Implies usage when banks need to be built, but no explicit guidance on prerequisites (e.g., project must be saved) or when to use this vs listening to build events. No exclusions or alternatives mentioned.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description carries full burden. It discloses that the tool is blocking and returns a result object, but does not detail side effects, timeout behavior, permissions, or error handling.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a process execution tool, the description covers the basic inputs and outputs. However, it lacks details on safety, error cases, and environment handling. Given no output schema, the return structure is somewhat described but types are missing.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 0%, so the description must compensate. It describes processOptions as an object with { workingDir, args, timeout (milliseconds) }, adding structure beyond the vague schema type. However, pathToExecutable is not elaborated beyond its name.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior4/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description fully covers behavioral aspects: it moves to cursor or start based on state. It discloses the condition-dependent behavior but does not mention side effects like whether playback restarts, or error handling. Still, for a simple action, it is transparent enough.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given this is a simple disconnect with one parameter and no output schema, the description captures the essential behavior and motivation. It could mention what happens after disconnection, but for a straightforward cleanup tool it is sufficient.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The only parameter 'connectFunction' has an empty schema description, and the tool description merely names it without explaining its nature or format. For a functional reference, more explanation is needed to avoid ambiguity.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool disconnects the connectFunction and distinguishes it from its sibling connect tool. It uses precise language ('Disconnects the connectFunction') and references the method tag.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines4/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description explains when to use ('once it is no longer needed') and why it is important (prevents accumulation and unexpected behavior). While alternatives are not explicitly stated, the context of connect and disconnect is implied by sibling tools.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description must cover behavioral traits. It mentions the tool lists names but does not describe return format, side effects, or read-only nature. For a discovery tool, this is adequate but not rich in behavioral context.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's simplicity (1 param, no output schema, no annotations), the description is mostly complete. It explains the operation, required parameter, and return. Could mention that the menu item must exist, but that is implied.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema has one parameter with 0% description coverage. The tool description adds critical semantics: the 'description' must match the one used in menu.addMenuItem(). This compensates for the empty schema.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the verb 'removes' and the resource 'menu item', specifying it removes an item added with addMenuItem(). This distinguishes it from sibling tools like fmod_menu_addMenuItem and fmod_menu_menuItems.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines4/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
