fmod_Event_keyOff

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.

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

The description is concise at one sentence plus a method reference. It is front-loaded with the core action, but slightly under-specified for completeness.

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

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

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.

Does 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.

Does 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.

Does 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.
