Export CalculiX input deck

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

With no annotations, the description bears full burden for behavioral disclosure. It only states the output is a .inp file without running solver. It fails to disclose error handling, file overwrite behavior, or whether the model must have certain properties (e.g., loads, supports).

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 concise at one sentence, which is appropriate for a simple tool. However, it could benefit from a brief parameter overview without sacrificing conciseness.

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?

Given the tool has 3 parameters, no output schema, and no annotations, the description is incomplete. It lacks parameter explanations and output behavior details. A more comprehensive description is needed for an agent to use it correctly.

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 description coverage is low (33%), with only 'path' described. The description does not explain 'model' or 'subdivisions' parameters, leaving their meaning and usage unclear. Adding parameter details would significantly improve this dimension.

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 writes a CalculiX .inp input deck for the model, specifying B32R beam elements and explicitly noting it does not run the solver. This distinguishes it from sibling tools like 'analyze' and 'export_freecad'.

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 implies usage when only the input deck is needed, not analysis. However, it does not explicitly state when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'export_freecad', nor does it mention prerequisites like the model must exist.

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