Collaborator: Update Remote System Configuration Webhook

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

The description contradicts annotations: readOnlyHint: true suggests no mutation, but the tool name and description say 'updates', which is a write operation. No additional behavioral context beyond the contradiction.

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 very short and front-loaded with the purpose. The toolset header adds some structure, but could be more concise by removing redundancy.

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 simple 1-parameter update tool with no output schema, the description covers the basics but lacks information about return values, side effects, or what the update entails (e.g., which webhook fields are affected).

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 100% with one parameter, so baseline is 3. The description adds no extra meaning beyond what the schema already provides. No information on accepted formats or constraints.

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 it updates the webhook for a remote system configuration by ID, which is a specific verb+resource. However, it does not differentiate from sibling tools like collaborator_edit_remote_system_configuration, which might update other aspects of the configuration.

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 (e.g., edit configuration, test connection). No prerequisites or exclusions provided.

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