Create Ploi Docker container

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

Annotations already indicate read-only=false (mutation) and not destructive or idempotent. The description adds no new behavioral context such as side effects (e.g., containers may fail if name not unique), auth requirements, or process details. It minimally confirms creation without enriching the annotation information.

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, well-formed sentence with no wasted words. It is appropriately front-loaded and efficient for its purpose.

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 the tool's simplicity and full schema coverage, the description is nearly complete. However, it omits explicit mention that the 'server_id' parameter is required and that the container is created on that specific server, which is implied but not stated. Still, for a straightforward creation tool, it is adequate.

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 100%: each parameter has a clear description. The tool's description adds no additional meaning beyond what the schema already provides. Baseline 3 is appropriate since the schema does the heavy lifting.

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 ('Create'), the resource ('Docker application container'), and the context ('on a Ploi server'). It effectively distinguishes this tool from sibling operations like update, delete, or list containers.

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 provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives (e.g., when to use update or delete). No prerequisites, exclusions, or comparison with other create tools are mentioned, leaving the agent to infer context from the tool name alone.

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