export_drill

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

Annotations include openWorldHint and destructiveHint, which already signal side effects and potential destructiveness, but the description adds no context about what is created, overwritten, or how the output directory behaves. It contributes no additional behavioral information.

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?

The description is a single, efficient sentence, but it is under-specified. It avoids verbosity at the cost of utility, providing no structured information beyond the basic action-resource statement.

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?

For a tool with one optional parameter and an output schema, the description is minimal. It does not explain the role of output_subdir, the destructive implications hinted by annotations, or how this tool fits into the broader export workflow.

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 output_subdir is not mentioned in the description, and schema coverage is 0%. The description fails to explain the parameter's purpose or default behavior, leaving the agent without semantic grounding.

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 clearly states the action 'Export' and the resource 'drill files', which is a specific output type that distinguishes it from siblings like export_gerber. However, it lacks details about format or scope, so it is not fully comprehensive.

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?

No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus other export tools or any prerequisites. The description gives no context for appropriate invocation.

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