Behavior2/5

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

The description adds no behavioral information beyond the annotations. While annotations already indicate readOnlyHint=false, destructiveHint=false, and idempotentHint=false, the description does not disclose side effects, authorization needs, or behavior on duplicate calls. It simply restates the tool's purpose.

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

Conciseness2/5

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

The description is a single sentence that exactly matches the annotation title, making it redundant. While concise, it does not earn its place because it adds no new information beyond the title. Every sentence should contribute unique value.

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

Completeness2/5

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

The tool has 3 required parameters with an enum, and an output schema exists, but the description is too minimal. It does not explain the effect of creating a permission (e.g., additive vs. overwrite), prerequisites (user/video existence), or potential side effects. The description lacks completeness for a permission creation tool.

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

Parameters3/5

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

Schema coverage is 100% and the input schema already provides descriptions for all three parameters (user, video, permission) including the enum values. The tool description does not add any additional meaning or context about the parameters beyond what the schema 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.

Purpose5/5

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

The description clearly states the verb 'Create' and the resource 'permission for a user on a video'. It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like edubase_get_video_permission (read) and edubase_delete_video_permission (delete), and from other entity permission tools by specifying 'video'.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does 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 edubase_post_class_permission or edubase_post_exam_permission. The description does not mention when not to use it, nor does it reference any prerequisites or alternative tools.

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