set_runaway_takeoff_deactivate_throttle_percent

Set the throttle percentage above which runaway takeoff protection deactivates, confirming clear pilot intent.

Instructions

Set runaway_takeoff_deactivate_throttle_percent: Throttle percentage above which the pilot's intent is clear and runaway protection deactivates. [UINT8, 0–100, default: 20]

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
valueYesValue for runaway_takeoff_deactivate_throttle_percent (UINT8, 0–100)
Behavior3/5

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

With no annotations, the description carries full burden. It explains the behavioral effect of the parameter (deactivation threshold) but does not disclose side effects, validation, or whether changes take effect immediately. It adds some context beyond the schema.

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?

Single, well-structured sentence with embedded type and default. Every part is informative with no redundancy.

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 parameter setter, the description covers purpose and constraints. Lacks interaction details with other runaway settings, but overall sufficient.

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?

Schema coverage is 100%, baseline 3. The description adds meaning by explaining that the value represents a threshold for deactivating runaway protection, which is not in the schema's minimal description.

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 explicitly states 'Set' and defines the parameter as the throttle percentage above which runaway protection deactivates. It distinguishes this parameter from related siblings like set_runaway_takeoff_deactivate_delay by explaining its specific role.

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 guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives. It does not mention prerequisites, typical scenarios, or conditions under which the setting should be adjusted.

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