superset_explore_permalink_create

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 POST endpoint and that it 'generates a shareable link,' but lacks critical behavioral details: whether authentication is required, rate limits, error conditions, if the link is permanent or expires, or what 'state' must include. For a creation tool with zero annotation coverage, this leaves significant gaps in understanding its behavior.

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 well-structured and front-loaded with the main purpose. It uses three sentences efficiently: stating the action, endpoint, and parameter/return details. No wasted words, though it could be slightly more detailed without losing conciseness.

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 the tool creates a permalink (a write-like operation) with no annotations, no output schema, and low schema coverage, the description is incomplete. It doesn't cover authentication needs, error handling, link format, or what the returned dictionary contains. For a tool with this complexity and lack of structured data, more context is needed to be fully helpful.

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

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

Schema description coverage is 0%, so the description must compensate. It adds that 'state' includes 'form_data' and is for 'chart exploration state,' providing some meaning beyond the generic schema. However, with 1 parameter and nested objects, more detail on the structure or examples would be helpful. The description partially compensates but doesn't fully bridge the coverage gap.

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 the tool's purpose: 'Create a permalink for chart exploration' and specifies it makes a POST request to generate a shareable link. It distinguishes from sibling tools like superset_explore_permalink_get (which retrieves rather than creates), but doesn't explicitly contrast with all siblings. The purpose is specific but could be more distinctive.

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?

No explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives is provided. The description mentions the endpoint but doesn't explain prerequisites, when this is appropriate versus other sharing methods, or what happens if the state is invalid. Usage is implied through the action described, but no contextual boundaries are set.

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