rollback_scope

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

With no annotations, the description must disclose behavioral traits. It mentions the confirm requirement but does not explain the consequences of rolling back (e.g., whether it's irreversible, what happens to the snapshot, or if it restores previous state). The destructive nature is implied but not clarified.

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 two sentences long, immediately states the primary action, and includes only necessary information. No extraneous content or repetition.

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?

Given the tool's low complexity (two parameters, none required) and the existence of an output schema, the description covers the basic purpose and a key constraint. However, it lacks important behavioral context (destructiveness, scope implications) for a complete understanding.

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?

Schema coverage is 0%, so the description should compensate. It only covers the 'confirm' parameter by stating it must be true, but does not explain the 'scope' parameter's meaning (project vs. global) or how it affects the rollback operation.

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 tool's action: 'Rollback the latest created snapshot for a scope.' It specifies the verb (rollback), resource (snapshot), and modifier (latest created), distinguishing it from sibling tools like 'list_snapshots' which only list snapshots.

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?

The description includes a prerequisite ('Requires confirm=True to execute'), but provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, such as other snapshot operations. It lacks explicit when-to-use or when-not-to-use context.

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