set_default_connector

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It states the operation but does not mention that this is a mutation, whether it affects the underlying design, any required permissions, side effects, or failure conditions. The word 'set' implies state change but provides no transparency beyond that.

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, front-loaded sentence with no filler or redundant details. Every word earns its place, and the key constraint ('copied') is included without bloating the text.

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 one-parameter setter with no output schema and no annotations, this is minimally adequate: the agent knows what to do and which parameter to provide. However, it lacks behavioral context such as side effects, when the node is considered 'copied', and what being 'default' entails, leaving meaningful gaps for correct invocation and expectation-setting.

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 input schema already provides a clear description for connectorId, and coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The tool description adds the important constraint that the connectorId must refer to a copied connector node, which goes beyond the schema's generic 'connector node' description.

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 the action ('set'), the resource ('connector node'), and the desired outcome ('as the default connector'). It is specific enough to distinguish this tool from most siblings, though it does not explicitly contrast it with any alternative or define what 'default connector' means in this context.

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 phrase 'copied connector node' implies that the tool should be used after copying a connector node, giving some usage context. However, there is no explicit guidance about when to prefer this tool over alternatives, nor any exclusions or workflow prerequisites.

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