blogger_pages_update

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

With no annotations, the description carries the full burden. It discloses the key behavioral trait of full replacement, which is essential. However, it does not explain the implications of optional parameters like publish and revert, or what happens to other page properties, leaving meaningful gaps.

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 a single concise sentence, front-loaded with the main purpose, and every word contributes value. It is neither verbose nor under-specified.

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?

For a tool with six parameters, no annotations, and no output schema, the description covers the core update semantics but omits behavior around optional parameters (publish, revert) and potential side effects. It is adequate but not complete for guiding an agent through all scenarios.

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?

The schema has 100% description coverage for all six parameters, so the baseline is 3. The description only mentions title and content, adding no significant meaning beyond the schema for optional parameters like revert and publish.

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 clearly states it performs a 'full update of an existing static page' and 'replaces the entire page with the new title and content.' This specifies the verb, resource, and scope, and naturally distinguishes it from sibling tools like blogger_pages_patch (which implies partial updates).

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?

The description provides clear context by emphasizing 'full update' and 'replaces the entire page,' indicating this is for complete replacements and not partial edits. However, it does not explicitly name alternatives like blogger_pages_patch or state when not to use this tool, so it falls short of a 5.

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