attest_to_floor

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

The description implies an agreement commitment but does not disclose behavioral traits like irreversibility, side effects, or required permissions. With no annotations, more detail is needed to fully inform the agent.

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 concise sentence with no unnecessary words, effectively conveying the core purpose.

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 large set of sibling tools and the lack of output schema, the description omits important context such as return values, side effects, and relationships to other tools like 'load_values_floor'.

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 baseline is 3. The description does not add meaning beyond the schema; it does not explain how 'floor_version' maps to specific floors or how 'extensions' modify the attestation.

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 ('Attest') and the resource ('loaded Values Floor'), and it distinguishes itself from sibling tools like 'load_values_floor' by indicating a confirmation step.

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 no guidance on when to use this tool, such as prerequisites (e.g., load_values_floor must be called first) or alternatives. This leaves the agent without context for proper sequencing.

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