hr_leave_planning_loop

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries full burden but only mentions routing and scope (JWT, tenant, company). It does not disclose whether the tool reads, writes, mutates state, or has any side effects. The term 'loop' suggests iterative behavior but is unexplained.

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?

The description is brief, consisting of one sentence and a list of args with explanations. It is front-loaded with the core action. Despite being short, it does not waste 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?

The tool has an output schema, so return values are covered, but the description remains incomplete. It does not explain what the loop does, how it behaves over time, or what structured inputs are expected. For a 'loop' tool, this is a significant gap.

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 0%, so the description must add meaning. It merely restates parameter names as 'Free-text objective' and 'Optional JSON string', providing no format, constraints, or examples. This adds minimal value beyond the schema's type and default.

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?

The description states 'Run the hr domain agent action leave_planning_loop' but does not clarify what the action accomplishes. It is unclear whether it plans leave, approves leave, or runs a generative loop. Sibling tools like 'hr_leave_request' have clearer purposes.

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 guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as 'hr_leave_request', 'hr_chat', or other HR tools. The description lacks any context for appropriate selection.

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