zwave_stop_exclusion

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

The description indicates a state change (exiting exclusion mode) but does not disclose side effects, prerequisites, or safety implications. With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden; it is minimally adequate but lacks detail on what 'taking out' entails.

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, concise sentence with no excess words. Every part earns its place.

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 zero parameters, no output schema, and a simple action, the description is complete enough. It fully explains the tool's purpose without missing necessary context.

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?

There are no parameters, and schema coverage is 100%. Per the rubric, 0 parameters yields a baseline of 4. No additional parameter meaning is needed.

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: taking the controller out of exclusion mode. It uses a specific verb ('take') and resource ('controller out of exclusion mode'), which distinguishes it from sibling tools like zwave_begin_exclusion (which enters mode) and zwave_stop_inclusion (which stops a different mode).

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 implies usage context: when the controller is in exclusion mode and needs to exit. Although no explicit alternatives or when-not-to-use are stated, the purpose is clear enough for an agent to infer appropriate usage.

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