set_yaw_expo

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It only mentions the default value and type (UINT8) but fails to disclose whether changes persist, require a reboot, or affect flight behavior immediately. This is minimal transparency.

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: a single sentence with key info front-loaded. However, it sacrifices context for brevity. It could be slightly more structured (e.g., explaining the parameter's impact) without losing efficiency.

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 setter with one parameter, the description is minimally adequate. It covers the action and parameter type/default. However, it lacks any explanation of the effect or prerequisites, which would be helpful for an agent. Not a significant gap, but not fully complete.

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 description coverage is 100% (parameter already has a description). The description adds the default value (0) and repeats the type, but does not provide significant additional semantic 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 it sets the yaw_expo parameter, using a specific verb and resource. However, it does not differentiate from similar setters like set_roll_expo or explain what yaw expo is, which would help agents select the correct tool among many similar sibling 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?

No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives is provided. With numerous sibling setters (e.g., set_pitch_expo, set_roll_expo) and a getter (get_yaw_expo), the description should indicate context or prerequisites for setting yaw expo.

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