seerr_update_settings_radarr

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

Annotations already indicate readOnlyHint=false and destructiveHint=false. The description adds the context 'this modifies your Seerr instance,' which is useful for a write operation. However, it does not disclose which fields get modified, reversibility, or behavior on invalid input, so it only partially exceeds the annotations.

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 one short sentence with no filler, making it concise. However, it is under-specified, omitting essential input semantics. It achieves conciseness but at the cost of clarity, so it does not earn a 5.

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?

Despite having an output schema, the tool has two parameters including a nested body object, yet the description provides no input guidance. It does not explain what body should contain, how radarr_id is used, or what the success response indicates. The input side is severely underdocumented for an AI agent.

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 coverage is 0%, so the description must compensate, but it provides no explanation of 'radarr_id' or 'body.' The parameter names are somewhat self-explanatory, but 'body' is an open object and its expected structure is not clarified. The description adds minimal value over the raw schema.

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 tool updates a Radarr instance and flags it as a WRITE operation. However, it does not distinguish from sibling tools like update_settings_sonarr beyond the name, and does not mention what specific settings can be updated.

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 is given on when to use this tool vs create_settings_radarr, delete_settings_radarr, or update_settings_sonarr. Prerequisites such as an existing Radarr ID are not mentioned, leaving the agent to infer usage solely from the name.

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