execute_approved_write

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

Description adds no behavioral context beyond what annotations already provide (destructiveHint: true). No mention of side effects, reversibility, or permissions. Annotation covers destructiveness, so description adds minimal 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 sentence, very concise and front-loaded. However, the brevity sacrifices necessary detail, making it less useful than a slightly longer but more informative description.

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?

Despite having an output schema (not provided here) and annotations, the description is too minimal. For a destructive operation with a complex parameter (approval object), it should explain what the approval object is (e.g., from preview_write response) and confirm's function.

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 0% and the description provides no explanation of parameters (confirm and approval). The approval object is not described, nor is the role of the confirm boolean. Critical gap for a tool with nested objects.

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's purpose: executing a previously previewed and confirmed write. It uses specific verb 'execute' and resource 'standard write', and distinguishes from siblings like preview_write and validate_write.

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?

Implies prerequisite of a previewed and confirmed write, but does not explicitly state when to use this tool versus alternatives or provide exclusion criteria. Lacks guidance on required prior steps.

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