pup_mark_defaults_reviewed

Idempotent

Mark a student's default dismissal plans as reviewed to clear the school's needs-review prompt; confirm first before any change is applied.

Instructions

Mark a student's default plans as reviewed, clearing the school's 'needs review' prompt. Asks the user to confirm first: a confirmation prompt where the client supports one; otherwise the first call returns a preview and a confirmToken, and only a repeat call with that token proceeds (see MCP_CONFIRM_MODE).

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
reviewedNoDefaults to true
student_idYesStudent id, from pup_list_students
confirmTokenNoONLY for the two-step confirmation fallback (a client without MCP elicitation). The confirmToken from this same tool's phase-1 "confirmation-required" response, passed back ONLY after the user has seen that preview and explicitly approved it in chat — never on the first call, never invented, never reused. Call again with the same arguments. Ignored when the client supports elicitation.

TDQS

A4.3/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations only declare mutation/idempotency/openWorld; the description goes well beyond them by disclosing that user confirmation is required, that clients without elicitation get a preview plus confirmToken on the first call, and that only a repeat call with that token proceeds. It also points to MCP_CONFIRM_MODE, giving the agent the actual call protocol.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The purpose is front-loaded in the first clause, followed by the confirmation behavior in a single dense sentence. Nothing is wasted, though the parenthetical token details make the second half slightly heavy.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a mutation tool with annotations and no output schema, the description covers the key behavior an agent needs: confirmation, preview, and token reuse rules. It omits what passing reviewed=false would do (un-marking), a minor gap given the parameter's default-true note.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100%, and the schema already documents confirmToken's two-phase semantics in depth, so the description mostly restates that flow rather than adding new parameter meaning. Baseline 3 is appropriate when the schema does the heavy lifting.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

States a specific verb+resource ('Mark a student's default plans as reviewed') and the resulting effect ('clearing the school's needs review prompt'), which cleanly separates it from siblings like pup_get_default_plans and pup_set_default_plans. An agent can identify the operation without opening the schema.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The description implies when to use it (when the school's needs-review prompt must be cleared) and details the confirmation protocol for calling it, but never names or contrasts an alternative tool for the unreview path. Context is clear, though no explicit when-not guidance is given.

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