stop_timesheet

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

No annotations are present, so the description must convey behavioral traits. It discloses the conditional selection logic (specific timesheet vs. active task timesheet), but it does not mention prerequisites, side effects, or whether the stop is reversible, leaving a gap for a mutation tool.

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 a single sentence with the key action first, followed by a condition. No filler words; every phrase adds meaning.

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?

The tool is simple with two optional parameters and no output schema. The description covers the core behavior and the default case, but it does not specify what the response includes or whether an active timesheet must exist, so it is slightly incomplete for a complete understanding.

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 0%, so the description is the only source of parameter meaning. It explains timesheet_id as the specific timesheet to stop and implies task_id is the task context when no timesheet_id is given, though it does not elaborate on constraints or format.

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 uses a clear verb ('Detiene'/'stops') and specifies the resource ('registro en curso'/'current record'). It distinguishes from sibling tools like start_task and log_time by indicating it stops an ongoing timesheet, not starts or logs.

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?

It explains the conditional behavior (if timesheet_id is omitted, it stops the active one for the task), providing clear usage context. It does not explicitly name alternatives or exclusions, but the workflow is obvious from the sibling set.

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