TDQS

D1.7/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=false, idempotentHint=true, destructiveHint=false, so safety is covered structurally. The description adds nothing beyond that — no mention of what fields get overwritten, whether omitted fields are cleared (full vs. partial update), or any auth/permission requirement for a write against a CISO Assistant asset.

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

Conciseness3/5

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

It is a single short sentence, so there is no padding, but it is under-specified rather than concise — the brevity comes from carrying almost no information.

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

Completeness1/5

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

For a mutation endpoint with an untyped free-form body and no output schema, the description should carry the payload and behavior burden. It provides none of it, leaving the agent unable to construct a correct update call.

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

Parameters1/5

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

Schema description coverage is 0% and the description names no parameters at all. Both 'id' (required) and the opaque 'body' object (anyOf object/null, additionalProperties true, no defined fields) are left entirely unexplained, so the agent has no idea what payload shape the endpoint accepts.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose2/5

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

The sentence is generic Django REST Framework boilerplate: 'allows assets to be viewed or edited' neither states that this call updates one existing asset by id nor distinguishes it from the many siblings (assets_partial_update, assets_retrieve, assets_list, assets_destroy). An agent reading only the description cannot tell this is the full-update (PUT-style) variant.

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

Usage Guidelines1/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

No indication of when to use this versus ciso_assistant_api_assets_partial_update, ciso_assistant_api_assets_retrieve, or ciso_assistant_api_assets_update's siblings. The phrase 'viewed or edited' even muddies the usage decision by implying a read path that does not apply.

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