Behavior3/5

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

Adds value beyond annotations by noting partial update behavior ('only the supplied fields are changed') and return of modified object. However, includes a confusing reference to 'Drawings' instead of 'Drawing Areas' and lacks details on authorization or error conditions.

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?

Concise at four sentences, front-loaded with purpose. Includes API version and endpoint for context. Minor inefficiency from the confusing 'Drawings' wording.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness3/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Covers essential aspects: update operation, partial update, return value. Missing details on validation errors or idempotency. Confusion between 'Drawing Area' and 'Drawings' detracts from completeness.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100% with descriptions for all parameters. Description does not add additional semantic meaning beyond what the schema provides, achieving the baseline for high coverage.

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

Purpose4/5

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

Clearly states 'Update an existing Drawing Area' with verb and resource. Distinguishes from create/delete by context. Minor confusion from using 'Drawings' in parentheses, but overall purpose is clear.

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?

Provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like create_drawing_area or delete_a_drawing_area. Missing when-not-to-use or prerequisite information.

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