Project Summary

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It clearly indicates a read-only inspection operation, discloses that it requires a prior build, and mentions a warning condition (source edited since the .sb3 was written). This is strong transparency for a simple read tool.

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 tightly written with no wasted sentences. The opening line states the core purpose, the middle gives concrete verification examples, and the final line covers the prerequisite and a warning behavior. Every sentence earns its place.

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 tool with one optional parameter and an output schema, the description is complete. It specifies the input, the prerequisite build step, the kind of information returned, and a notable warning condition. An agent has enough information to decide when and how to call it correctly.

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?

The single parameter 'path' is already fully documented in the input schema with a description and default value, so schema coverage is 100%. The tool description adds no additional parameter meaning, but none is really needed here; the baseline of 3 is appropriate.

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 uses a specific verb ('Inspect', 'Reads') and a concrete resource ('the built .sb3'), and states exactly what it reports: target counts, costumes, sounds, variables, lists, and asset usage. It clearly distinguishes itself from build-related siblings like project_build by focusing on post-build verification.

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 gives explicit context: use it after building to verify a build did what you intended, and it explicitly states the prerequisite 'run project_build first'. It does not name alternative inspection tools or explicitly say when not to use it, but the usage context is clear and actionable.

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