axint.agent.release

Idempotent

Release active local file claims for your agent after finishing or abandoning a task. Unblocks other agents from stale claims.

Instructions

Release active local Axint file claims for this agent after finishing or abandoning a task. This keeps Codex, Claude, Cursor, and Xcode from blocking each other on stale claims. Use: use after finishing or abandoning claimed files so other agents are unblocked. Effects: updates local coordination claims under .axint/coordination; no network.

Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already provide idempotentHint=true, destructiveHint=false. Description adds valuable context: 'updates local coordination claims under .axint/coordination; no network' and explains the effect of unblocking agents. No contradictions.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Two sentences plus 'Use:' and 'Effects:' sections. Front-loaded purpose, no fluff, every sentence adds value. Extremely concise.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Given the straightforward nature, presence of output schema, and complete schema descriptions, the description covers purpose, usage, and effects comprehensively. No gaps.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Input schema has 100% coverage with descriptions. Description does not add extra parameter details beyond schema, which is adequate. Baseline of 3 is appropriate.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

Description clearly states the action: 'Release active local Axint file claims for this agent after finishing or abandoning a task.' It distinguishes from sibling tools like axint.agent.claim by specifying the release operation.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Explicitly says 'use after finishing or abandoning claimed files so other agents are unblocked,' providing clear context. Does not explicitly list when not to use, but guidance is sufficient for an agent to decide.

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