cmw_meas_trigger

Trigger GPRF power measurement on a CMW500 radio tester via SCPI by specifying the host and port, allowing automated control of the measurement.

Behavior2/5

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

There are no annotations to convey safety or side-effect information, so the description must carry the burden. 'Trigger' alone does not disclose whether the operation blocks, performs a single-shot or continuous measurement, resets previous state, or returns any value, which is inadequate for an agent.

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

Conciseness3/5

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

The description is extremely concise and front-loaded, which is efficient, but it is under-specified to the point of not fulfilling its informative role. It earns credit for being brief, but the brevity hurts clarity.

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

Completeness2/5

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

Without annotations, an output schema, or parameter details, the description does not cover the tool's expected behavior, return format, or relationship to measurement configuration and fetch tools. For a trigger action among many related tools, this is insufficient context.

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

Parameters1/5

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

The schema lists host and port with no descriptions, and the description mentions neither parameter. With 0% schema description coverage, the description should explain their purpose and the need for them, but it does not, providing no semantic value.

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

Purpose4/5

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

The description uses the specific verb 'Trigger' and identifies the target as 'GPRF power measurement,' making the tool's action clear. It distinguishes from sibling trigger tools like cmw_bt_trigger and cmw_wlan_trigger by specifying GPRF, though the acronym is not expanded.

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 guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as cmw_meas_set_trigger or cmw_meas_fetch_power. It does not mention prerequisites like prior configuration or how triggering relates to subsequent measurement fetching, leaving the usage context ambiguous.

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