form_generate_component

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

With no annotations provided, the description must carry the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It only says it generates a component, but does not explain side effects (e.g., does it modify files?), authentication requirements (api_key parameter is not mentioned), or what the output looks like. The '(Pro)' hint is ambiguous and does not clarify behavior.

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 sentence, highly concise with no filler. The primary action is front-loaded. However, it lacks structure or any elaboration, which might be acceptable given its brevity, but it could benefit from a breakdown of features or usage. Still, it is efficient in signaling the core function.

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 tool has 4 parameters, no output schema, and no annotations, indicating moderate complexity. The description does not explain what the generated component consists of, how features interact, or what response format is expected. It does not mention return values or any dependencies. For a code generation tool, this is insufficient guidance.

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 all four parameters (schema, api_key, features, framework) have descriptions in the schema. The tool description adds no additional information beyond what the schema already provides. It does not elaborate on how features or framework affect the generated component, but the schema lists examples. Baseline 3 is appropriate since schema handles the parameter documentation.

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 states a specific verb ('Generate') and a specific resource ('complete, reusable form component') along with state management and submission. This clearly indicates the tool's purpose, but it does not differentiate it from similar siblings like form_from_schema or form_add_validation, which also generate forms. The addition of '(Pro)' hints at a tier but does not clarify distinction.

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. No mention of prerequisites, situations when this is preferred, or when not to use it. The description only states what it does, not the context of use.

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