get_dshot_bitbang

Retrieve the current DSHOT bitbang implementation setting, which controls software-based DSHOT protocol execution. AUTO selects automatically based on hardware capabilities.

Instructions

Get dshot_bitbang: DSHOT bitbang implementation (software DSHOT). AUTO selects automatically. (Requires: USE_DSHOT + USE_DSHOT_BITBANG) [UINT8, default: AUTO]

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault

No arguments

Behavior4/5

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

Without annotations, the description carries full burden. It discloses requirements (USE_DSHOT + USE_DSHOT_BITBANG) and type/default (UINT8, AUTO), providing useful context for availability and expected value.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

The description is concise, with one explanatory sentence and a separate note for requirements/type. No wasted words, though structure could be slightly improved.

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

Completeness4/5

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

For a simple getter with no parameters and no output schema, the description provides sufficient context: meaning, requirements, and value type. It is complete for its purpose.

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

Parameters4/5

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

No parameters exist, so schema coverage is 100%. The description adds value by specifying the setting's type and default, which helps the agent interpret the return value.

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

Purpose4/5

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

The description clearly states the tool retrieves the dshot_bitbang setting, explains it as a DSHOT bitbang implementation, and notes the AUTO default. The specific naming distinguishes it from other getters.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

No explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. The description only states what it does, not when it should be invoked or when not to use it.

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