TDQS

A3.6/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

The annotations already declare destructiveHint=true and readOnlyHint=false, so the agent knows this is a mutating operation. The description adds that it undoes the last N actions, but it does not explain reversibility, scope, or whether a follow-up redo is possible; with annotations covering the safety profile, this is adequate but not rich.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is a single front-loaded sentence with no waste. It states the core action and operation count immediately.

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

Completeness4/5

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

For a simple one-parameter undo tool with annotations and an output schema, the description is mostly complete. The main remaining gap is that it does not mention the relationship to redo or the consequences of undoing multiple steps.

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?

The schema has one parameter, steps, with 0% description coverage, so the description must compensate. Saying "last N actions" implies that steps controls how many actions are undone, which adds some meaning, but it does not give range, default, or edge-case behavior.

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?

The description uses a specific verb and resource: "Undo the last N actions in Live." It is clear what the tool does, but it does not explicitly distinguish itself from the sibling redo tool beyond the Ctrl+Z analogy.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines3/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The Ctrl+Z analogy implies the tool should be used to reverse recent actions, but the description does not state when to use undo versus redo or any prerequisites. Usage is therefore implied rather than explicit.

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