finalize_type

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

Annotations indicate non-read-only and non-destructive, but the description adds no details about the finalization process (e.g., validation, naming checks, state transitions). The term 'finalize' alone does not disclose behavioral traits beyond what annotations already imply.

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 extraneous information. It conveys the essential purpose efficiently.

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?

The description lacks details on return values, prerequisites (e.g., type must be in reserved state), validation behavior, or expected output. Given no output schema and a complex set of parameters including nested objects, the description is incomplete for guiding correct invocation.

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%, and each parameter is adequately described in the schema. The tool description adds only high-level context without enhancing parameter meaning, meeting baseline expectation.

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 'Finalize reserved type after creation' clearly specifies the action (finalize) and resource (reserved type), distinguishing it from sibling tools like 'reserve_type' (which creates the reservation) and 'finalize_types' (batch version).

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 explicitly states 'after creation', providing a clear usage context. While it does not mention alternatives or when not to use, the sibling tool list and the context of a two-step process (reserve then finalize) make the usage fairly clear.

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