plasticity_create_heat_set_insert_pocket_pattern

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

Annotations already declare destructiveHint=true and readOnlyHint=false, and 'Cut' is consistent with that. The description goes beyond the structured data by disclosing the internal construction (three native cylinders per center plus one final Boolean) and the resulting 3N+1 confirmed history steps, which tells the agent about modeling/undo footprint.

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?

Two dense sentences with the action and scope front-loaded and effectively no filler. The second sentence carries real information but is somewhat terse to parse.

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 13-parameter destructive tool with no output schema and 0% parameter description coverage, the description covers the operation and construction well but omits meaning for several required inputs (axis direction, targetId, revision) and any note on return/confirmation beyond step count.

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 0% across 13 parameters, so the description must carry the param burden. It names the pilot, insert-bore, lead-in, and material depths and clarifies they are 'shared' across all centers, plus the 2-64 count and entry centers, but leaves targetId, axis, revision, intent, and overshootMm undocumented both here and in the schema.

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?

States a specific verb (Cut), resource (heat-set-insert pockets), and scope (2-64 equal, at explicit entry centers, one Solid), so the agent knows exactly what geometry is produced. The plural/pattern nature implicitly separates it from the singular sibling plasticity_create_heat_set_insert_pocket, but no alternative is named explicitly.

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?

The description implies usage conditions: multiple equal pockets (2-64), a single target Solid, and explicit entry centers. However it never states when to prefer this over the single-pocket sibling or a generic pattern tool, and gives no exclusions or prerequisites.

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