v2.3.6Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare this is a non-read-only, open-world, non-idempotent, non-destructive mutation, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds useful context that input comes from a text list with hierarchy, but says nothing about how that text is parsed, whether the insert is atomic, or what happens to children when a parent line is malformed.
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?
A single front-loaded sentence with no filler; the two key qualifiers (batch from text list, parent-child relationships) come early. It is efficient, though the brevity leaves real gaps that a slightly longer sentence could have closed.
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?
For a write operation with an empty input schema and no output schema, the description should explain the expected payload shape and hierarchy constraints. It does neither, so an agent knows the intent but not how to actually invoke the tool correctly.
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?
With zero parameters the baseline would be 4, but here the empty schema (additionalProperties: false) leaves the agent with genuinely no structured guidance on how to supply data. The description is the only signal and it names 'a text list' without giving the format, delimiters, or required fields per line, so it only partly compensates.
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 gives a specific verb and resource ('Batch create multiple assets') and adds a distinguishing detail absent from siblings: creation 'from a text list with parent-child relationships'. That separates it from ciso_assistant_api_assets_create (single) and ciso_assistant_api_assets_batch_action_create (batch action on existing records), though the distinction is implied rather than stated.
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?
Usage is only implied: an agent can infer this is the tool for bulk-creating a hierarchy of assets from a textual list rather than creating them one at a time. There is no explicit 'use this instead of X when Y', no prerequisite or environment notes, and no statement of what happens with duplicates or partial failures.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
