Create Sequence

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

Annotations already declare the safety profile (readOnlyHint=false, destructiveHint=false, idempotentHint=false), so the description need not restate it. It adds nothing beyond them: no note on whether the new sequence becomes the active sequence, where it is placed, or what happens to the default preset discovery step.

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?

A single short sentence with no filler, appropriately front-loaded. It is efficient but borders on under-specified rather than genuinely concise.

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?

The tool is a mutation that has an output schema (so return values need not be explained), but the description omits key context an agent needs: relationship to the preset-based and clip-based creation siblings, and whether the created sequence becomes active.

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 description coverage is 100%, so both name and preset_path are fully documented in the schema; baseline 3 applies. The description adds no additional meaning beyond what the schema already provides.

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 clear verb+resource (create a sequence in the project), so the basic action is unambiguous. However, it does not distinguish itself from very close siblings such as create_sequence_from_preset (which this tool overlaps with via the preset_path parameter) or create_sequence_from_clips, leaving the agent to infer the boundary.

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 when-to-use guidance, no prerequisites, and no mention of alternatives despite many sibling sequence-creation tools. The agent must guess whether to use this versus create_sequence_from_preset or create_sequence_from_clips.

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