Services_updateSchedule

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

There are no annotations, so the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It only implies a mutating operation through 'Update' and adds a deployment-context remark, but it does not mention permissions, side effects, reversibility, idempotency, or what happens to the existing schedule.

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?

The description is short and readable, but the core action is buried after the opening 'Catalog entry' and deployment note. Some of the meta text adds context, while 'Catalog entry' itself contributes little operational value.

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?

With no annotations, no output schema, an empty input schema, and only a one-line purpose statement, this description is far too incomplete for an agent to invoke the tool reliably. It lacks required inputs, request format, behavioral effects, and result expectations.

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?

The input schema is empty with additionalProperties allowed, so the description is the only source of parameter meaning. It mentions 'given resource' but does not specify how the resource or schedule is identified or what properties should be included in the request.

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 states a clear verb and object: 'Update the schedule of the given resource.' This conveys the core action at a high level. However, it does not differentiate this from sibling tools like Services_updateReservation or Services_rescheduleAppointmentForServiceJobByServiceJobId.

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?

No guidance is provided about when to use this tool versus related Services tools. The phrase 'Runs in your Kuudo deployment, not here' is an environmental note, not a usage criterion, and there are no exclusions or prerequisites stated.

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