komodo_create_build

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full behavioral burden. It does not disclose whether this is a dry-run or a real mutation, what required permissions or server connections are needed, what happens on duplicate names, or any side effects. Only 'Returns: Created build information' hints at a write response.

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?

It is short and front-loaded, but the Args/Returns boilerplate is generic and the extreme brevity reflects under-specification rather than crispness. No waste, but little value per sentence.

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 accepts a required nested config object with no documentation, has no annotations, and no output schema explanation beyond a one-liner. For a mutation that is part of a large CRUD family, this is insufficient for correct invocation.

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?

The single parameter is a free-form object with 0% schema description coverage, so the description must compensate. It says only 'Build configuration dictionary,' providing no key names, formats, or examples. The agent cannot construct a valid config from this.

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 'Create a new build,' which is a clear verb+resource. However, it does not distinguish this create from sibling update/delete/build-run tools, and it gives no sense of what a 'build' config contains. Adequate but generic.

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?

There is no when-to-use guidance, no mention of prerequisites, and no routing to siblings like komodo_update_build or komodo_run_build. The agent gets no help deciding between create vs update vs run.

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