Api presets partial update

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

Annotations already state readOnlyHint=false, destructiveHint=false, idempotentHint=false, and openWorldHint=true, so the safety profile is known without the description. The description adds no behavioral context beyond that — nothing about authentication, what the body can contain, or that updates are non-idempotent partial merges. It does not contradict the annotations.

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?

It is one token long, so there is no waste, but that is under-specification rather than conciseness. Nothing is front-loaded because nothing is said.

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?

A mutation tool with two parameters, 0% schema coverage, no output schema, and a free-form body — the description supplies none of the information needed to call it correctly. This is wholly inadequate for the tool's complexity.

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% and the description says nothing about either parameter. The 'id' path parameter and the opaque free-form 'body' object (anyOf object/null, additionalProperties true) are completely undocumented, leaving the agent to guess the payload shape for a preset update.

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 is just the raw operation id 'api_presets_partial_update', restating the tool name without a verb-plus-resource sentence or any statement of what is being updated. An agent must infer from the name alone that this is a partial (PATCH) update of a preset resource, and nothing distinguishes it from ciso_assistant_api_presets_update or ciso_assistant_api_presets_save_draft_partial_update.

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?

There is no when-to-use, when-not-to-use, or sibling routing guidance at all. The sibling list contains several near-identical preset mutation tools (update, save_draft_partial_update, batch_action_create), and the description offers nothing to disambiguate them.

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