set_horizon_ignore_sticks

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

No annotations provided, but the description fully discloses the behavioral trait: ignoring stick input for leveling transition when ON, and that it depends solely on horizon_delay_ms, plus the type and default value.

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?

Single front-loaded sentence with a compact bracketed note for type/default, no wasted words, highly efficient.

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 simple boolean setter, the description covers the effect and related parameter; it doesn't discuss safety implications, but that's acceptable for a low-complexity tool without output schema.

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% with one parameter described. The description does not add extra semantic detail about the parameter's allowed values beyond 'UINT8' and default, which is adequate but not enriching beyond baseline.

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 tool sets a specific parameter (horizon_ignore_sticks) and explains its effect in horizon mode, distinguishing it from sibling set_horizon_* tools.

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 explains when the setting impacts behavior (when ON, in horizon mode) and mentions it is governed only by horizon_delay_ms, providing context for use without explicit comparison to alternatives.

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