TDQS

D1.5/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

Annotations already disclose that this is a non-read-only, non-idempotent, open-world, non-destructive create operation, which is most of the behavioral signal available here. The description adds nothing beyond that – no indication of what gets created or mutated, whether the source preset is changed, or what side effects 'apply' triggers.

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?

It is extremely short with no wasted words, but this is under-specification rather than conciseness; a single identifier string conveys no information an agent can act on.

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 non-idempotent, open-world mutation with one unexplained parameter and no output schema, the definition is completely inadequate. Nothing tells the agent what state change results, whether it is reversible, or what a successful response contains.

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

Parameters2/5

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

Schema description coverage is 0% and the single required parameter 'id' is undocumented in both schema and description. The description does not clarify whether 'id' identifies the preset to apply, a target object to apply a preset to, or something else entirely – a critical ambiguity for the only input.

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

Purpose1/5

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

The description is the literal string "api_presets_apply_create" – a tautological restatement of the tool name that never states a verb or resource in plain language. It does not explain what 'apply' does to a preset (instantiate it, deploy it, run it against a scope?) nor distinguish it from siblings such as presets_publish_draft_create or presets_start_editing_create.

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?

There is no guidance about when to use this tool, what prerequisites exist, or which of the many sibling preset tools is the alternative. An agent must guess based solely on the underscored name.

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