Publish an Agent AVCP-passing pack

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

With no annotations, the description carries the disclosure burden. It usefully reveals that it publishes the exact current version, that AVCP gates must pass first, and that paid packs need Stripe Connect. However, it omits side effects, permissions, reversibility/publish-finality, and any response/error behavior.

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?

Two compact, front-loaded sentences with no filler. The main condition appears first and the paid-pack exception is added only where relevant.

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?

The tool is simple (two flat parameters, no output schema), so the gating and Stripe notes cover much of the needed context. But the confirmation parameter is left unexplained and there is no statement of what a successful publish returns or changes, leaving the definition adequate but incomplete.

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 only 50%: productId gets a minimal repeated description and confirmation is documented only by its const value. The description adds no parameter-level meaning such as why the confirmation constant is required or how productId identifies the pack.

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?

States a specific action ('Publish the exact current version') on a defined resource (an Agent AVCP-passing pack), with the gate condition included. This clearly separates it from sibling tools such as upload_ai_pack, submit_ai_pack_for_audition, and update_ai_pack_draft.

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?

Gives an explicit precondition: invoke only after every mandatory Agent AVCP gate passes, and for paid packs ensure Stripe Connect is set up before checkout. It does not name alternatives or list when-not-to-use cases, but the context is clear enough for selection.

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