admin_update_worksheet

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

No annotations are provided, so the description must cover behavioral traits. It only states 'Update', which implies mutation, but lacks details on permissions, side effects, atomicity, or any constraints. The agent gets no insight beyond the verb.

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 4-word sentence. While concise, it is too brief to be informative. It sacrifices substance for brevity, resulting in under-specification rather than efficient communication.

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 has 8 parameters (including a nested object), no output schema, and no annotations, the description is completely inadequate. It does not explain the update behavior, expected input format, or return value, leaving the agent with no actionable context.

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 description coverage is only 38% (3 of 8 parameters described). The description adds no parameter-level explanation. It does not elaborate on the meaning or format of any parameter, failing to compensate for the schema's gaps.

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 'Update a worksheet result' is a vague verb+resource statement. It does not clarify what 'worksheet result' refers to or distinguish this tool from its sibling 'admin_create_worksheet' or 'admin_delete_worksheet'. It almost restates the name, offering little added clarity.

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?

There is no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. It does not mention prerequisites, typical usage scenarios, or situations where another tool (like create or delete) would be more appropriate.

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