set_blackbox_disable_acc

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

Without annotations, the description must disclose behavioral traits. It mentions default OFF and the effect, but there is an inconsistency: description says 'UINT32' while the schema uses a string enum ('OFF', 'ON'). This confuses the expected type. No information on persistence, side effects, or required permissions.

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 extremely concise (11 words) and front-loads the purpose. It includes a default value. No wasted words, but could be slightly more structured.

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?

Given the simple tool (1 param, no output schema), the description covers the basic purpose and default. However, the type inconsistency and lack of usage context make it less complete. Adequate but with gaps.

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% (enum values described). The description adds only 'default: OFF', which is already implied by the enum ordering. No additional meaning beyond the schema. Baseline 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 clearly states the action (Set), the resource (blackbox_disable_acc), and the purpose (Exclude accelerometer data). It distinguishes from sibling tools like set_blackbox_disable_alt by specifying accelerometer data. However, it could be more precise about the effect on blackbox logging.

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?

No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. It does not explain contexts (e.g., reducing log size, troubleshooting) or provide any usage scenarios. The description is purely functional without decision support.

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