Create Notification Profile

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=false, idempotentHint=false, destructiveHint=false, and openWorldHint=true, so the mutation/duplicate-on-retry profile is known. The description adds nothing beyond that: it does not say what a notification profile contains, what happens on conflict, or what permissions are required.

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 a single short, front-loaded sentence with no wasted clauses. The tradeoff is that its brevity comes from under-specification rather than efficient communication.

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?

For a create tool with a nested, opaque settings object and no output schema, the description should explain the body and outcome but instead punts entirely to an external OpenAPI reference. An agent cannot determine what a valid call produces or what the settings body should contain.

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 coverage is 100%, so the required key/domain and the opaque settings body are already documented by the schema; baseline 3 applies. The description only defers to an external OpenAPI for body fields, adding no semantics the schema does not already provide.

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+resource ('Create Notification Profile'), which lets an agent distinguish it from the geoip/imap_auth/smtp_auth profile creators. However, it merely restates the title with no added detail about what a notification profile is or how it differs from the update/delete/get siblings in the same family.

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 guidance, no prerequisites, and no mention of alternatives such as fortimail.profiles.notification.update or the other profile-create tools. The only hint is a pointer to an external OpenAPI spec, which is documentation, not usage guidance.

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