TDQS

D1.6/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=false, idempotentHint=true, destructiveHint=false and openWorldHint=true, so the safety profile is covered structurally. The description, however, adds nothing beyond that – it does not say what is mutated, whether all fields are required, or whether the operation affects published versus draft presets.

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 a single token with zero waste, but this 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.

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 a mandatory id and an open free-form body, no output schema, and no documentation, the description leaves every call-shaping question unanswered. An agent cannot invoke this correctly without guessing the body payload.

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% across two parameters: 'id' (required string) and a completely undocumented free-form 'body' object. The description compensates for none of this – the agent has no idea what fields belong in the body, which is the entire payload of a PUT-style update.

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 description is just the tool name rephrased: 'api_presets_update'. It conveys only that something called an API preset is updated, with no statement of what a preset contains or what an update changes. It cannot be distinguished from sibling tools like ciso_assistant_api_presets_partial_update or ciso_assistant_api_presets_update_retrieve on the basis of the description.

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 on when to use this versus the many closely named preset siblings (partial_update, save_draft_partial_update, publish_draft_create, update_retrieve). No prerequisites, no exclusions, no alternatives are mentioned.

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