bolna_patch_sub_account

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

The description indicates the tool updates only provided fields (partial), which is useful. However, with no annotations, it misses details on side effects, authorization requirements, or idempotency, leaving the agent somewhat in the dark.

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?

Single sentence with no redundancy, front-loaded with purpose. Every word adds value.

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?

Adequate for a simple update tool, but lacks explanation of response (no output schema), error cases, or behavior when no fields are provided. Could be more complete given the absence of annotations.

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 100%, so the description adds little beyond naming the fields. It mentions 'name or concurrent call limit,' but does not elaborate on format, constraints, or behavior when both are omitted.

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 performs a partial update on a sub-account, specifying the updatable fields (name, concurrent call limit). This distinguishes it from sibling tools like create_sub_account or delete_sub_account.

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 provides basic context (partial update) but lacks explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, such as when a full update or complete replacement is needed.

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