trigger_webhook

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

No annotations are provided. Description states it triggers delivery but does not detail behavior such as synchronous/asynchronous, idempotency, rate limits, or validation. Minimal disclosure beyond core action.

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 sentences plus a bullet list. Front-loaded with purpose, efficient with zero wasted words.

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?

Output schema exists, so return values are covered. However, missing details about execution behavior (sync/async, validation) reduce completeness for a trigger action with 5 parameters and no annotations.

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 baseline is 3. Description does not add significant meaning beyond schema; it restates resource types and optional job_id purpose, but those are already in schema descriptions.

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?

Description clearly states the action 'trigger webhook delivery' and specifies resource types (job/monitor/monitor_group). It differentiates from automatic dispatch and sibling tools like test_webhook or get_webhook_history.

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?

Provides explicit 'Use when:' block with clear scenarios: on-demand delivery and replay of missed/failed deliveries. Lacks explicit 'when not' but context is sufficient.

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