update_true_false_answer

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

The description indicates mutation ('update') but provides no details on side effects, required permissions, error conditions (e.g., invalid index), or return value. With no annotations, the description carries full burden but only offers 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.

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

Single sentence with 14 words, front-loaded with action verb, no redundant phrasing. Every word is necessary.

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?

Despite having an output schema (unseen), the description leaves gaps: no explanation of required vs optional parameters, no behavior for edge cases, and no mention of what the output contains. Too brief for a tool with 4 parameters and a mutation operation.

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 partially explains 'correct_answer' via 'correct T/F' and 'index' via 'at index', but does not mention 'form_id' or 'points' (which has a default but no context). Insufficient for four parameters.

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 verb 'Update', the resource 'answer key (correct T/F) for a True/False question', and the constraint 'at index'. This distinguishes it from siblings like add_true_false_question (create) and batch_add_true_false (batch create).

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 vs alternatives, no prerequisites, and no when-not-to scenarios. The context of modifying an existing answer key is implicit but not elaborated.

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