Instructions

Deploy a workflow version on a specific platform.

Args: workflow_id: The workflow UUID version_id: The version UUID engine: Platform name (e.g., Arvados, SevenBridges) external_id: Workflow identifier on the external platform

Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description must fully disclose behavioral traits. It only states it deploys and lists parameters, but omits side effects, idempotency, error conditions, or whether it triggers execution.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Very concise: one action sentence followed by a clean parameter list. No unnecessary words, and critical information is front-loaded.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness3/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a 4-parameter tool with no output schema, the description provides basic parameter descriptions but lacks broader context like return value, authorization, or behavioral specifics, leaving gaps for an AI agent.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

The description adds one-line explanations for each parameter (e.g., 'workflow_id: The workflow UUID') which is valuable since the JSON schema has no descriptions. This compensates for the 0% schema coverage.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states the action 'Deploy' and the resource 'a workflow version on a specific platform'. It differentiates from sibling tools like list_workflow_deployments and delete_workflow_deployment.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

No explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. The description implies usage but does not provide context on prerequisites, conflicts, or when not to use it.

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