C2.4/5.0
Behavior2/5

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 clarifies that False means bypass rather than remove, which is a useful nuance, but says nothing about permissions, reversibility, or interaction with other FX state. For a state-mutating tool with zero annotation coverage this is thin.

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?

Extremely tight: one sentence for the action plus one clarifying line for the boolean flag. Front-loaded and no wasted words, though the Args block only covers one parameter.

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?

With three required params, 0% schema coverage, no annotations and no output schema, the description should explain the index parameters and any state implications. It covers only the boolean, so an agent still lacks enough context to call it reliably.

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 compensate for all three undocumented parameters. It explains only 'enabled' (True enable / False bypass) and gives no meaning for track_index or fx_index, leaving two of three parameters opaque.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose3/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description gives a specific verb+resource ('enable or disable an FX plugin'), which is clear enough to understand the operation. However, it does not distinguish this from the sibling 'take_fx_set_enabled' or 'track_fx_get_enabled' — it never states that the FX is on a track (as the name implies) rather than a take, leaving scope ambiguous.

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?

There is no statement of when to use this tool versus the closely named siblings (take_fx_set_enabled, track_fx_get_enabled) and no prerequisites such as needing a valid track/fx index. Usage must be inferred entirely from the name.

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