create_sequence

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full behavioral burden and discloses almost nothing. It does not say whether the new sequence is empty, is added to the project bin, becomes the active sequence, or what permissions/state it requires. Only the word "Create" signals a mutation.

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 single sentence is front-loaded and free of filler, but its brevity comes from under-specification rather than efficiency. Nothing here wastes space, yet nothing earns its place beyond the tool name.

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?

For a mutation tool with no annotations, no output schema, and several same-family siblings, the description is far too thin. An agent cannot predict the side effects or the return value (e.g., the new sequence's ID) from this text.

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 100%: both `name` and `presetPath` (including the "omit for default settings" fallback) are documented inline. The description adds nothing beyond the schema, so baseline 3 applies.

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?

"Create a new sequence" simply expands the tool name create_sequence with no additional information. It does not distinguish the tool from close siblings such as create_sequence_from_clip, clone_sequence, or import_sequences, so an agent learns nothing it could not infer from the name alone.

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 versus create_sequence_from_clip (build from an existing clip) or clone_sequence (duplicate). No prerequisites, no mention of what the resulting sequence contains or whether it becomes the active sequence.

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