C2.7/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

The only annotation is readOnlyHint=false, confirming a write, and the description adds session-scoped persistence — a small but real increment. Beyond that it says nothing about validation failures, whether changes apply to an already-running worker, required combinations of provider/model, or the effect of the optional lease/extend fields, which is a notable gap for an 8-parameter mutation tool.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

A single well-formed sentence with the verb and scope front-loaded and no filler. It is appropriately terse, though the brevity is partly a symptom of under-specification rather than deliberate economy.

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?

For a tool with 8 parameters, 0% schema coverage, no output schema, and only a single annotation, the description is far too thin. Nothing explains the semantics of the unrequired fields or the consequence of calling this before versus after worker_start.

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

Parameters2/5

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

Schema description coverage is 0%, so the description must carry parameter meaning. It names only four of eight fields (provider, model, reasoning, access) and adds no constraints, units, defaults, or value formats; leaseMs, maxTotalMs, autoExtend, and autoVerify are entirely undocumented anywhere.

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?

Specific verb ('Save') plus a concrete resource ('Worker provider/model/reasoning/access settings') and a scope qualifier ('for the current session'). It does not explicitly name the counterpart worker_profile_get or any other sibling, so sibling routing is left to the name alone.

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 when-to-use or when-not-to-use guidance is given, and no alternative (e.g., worker_profile_get, worker_start, session_mode_set) is referenced. 'Human-selected' hints the values come from a UI flow, but the description never states prerequisites or timing relative to spawning a worker.

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