get_enable_stick_arming

Retrieve the current state of stick-combination arming: whether arming via throttle-down/yaw-right is enabled.

Instructions

Get enable_stick_arming: Enable stick-combination arming (throttle-down/yaw-right). Disable if using a dedicated arm switch. [UINT8, default: OFF]

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault

No arguments

Behavior2/5

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

No annotations provided, and the description does not explicitly state that this is a read-only operation with no side effects. It mentions type and default but not the behavior of the get operation itself.

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

Conciseness5/5

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

Extremely concise: two sentences cover purpose, usage hint, type, and default. No wasted words.

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

Completeness3/5

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

Given no parameters, no output schema, and no annotations, the description provides the essential meaning and type but could be improved by explicitly stating it returns the current value.

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

Parameters5/5

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

No parameters, so no need for parameter descriptions. Tool is fully described given zero parameters.

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

Purpose5/5

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

The description clearly states it retrieves the enable_stick_arming setting for stick-combination arming. It distinguishes itself from sibling get tools by specifying the exact setting.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

The description hints at when to disable (if using a dedicated arm switch) but lacks explicit guidance on when to use this tool vs alternatives like the set tool.

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