Behavior2/5

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

No annotations exist. The description does not disclose side effects or technical requirements; the operation simply assert that it changes a setting, but no clues as to whether it requires the project, or whether it is reversible.

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?

Very concise, one sentence, but has a filler 'expanded operation' and 'Premiere Pro'— not harmful. It's efficient.

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

Completeness2/5

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

The tool is a simple setter with no output schema; but the input schema implies key/value metadata without description. There are no details about where override can be used, pixel aspect ratio? clip? H mm. The compression/depth is not enough.

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?

Zero parameters, and schema coverage is 100%; however, the schema with propertyNames is weird because there are no positional parameters, and it accepts arbitrary additionalProperties. The description offers no explanation for that apparent schema shape. Baseline 3 due to high schema coverage.

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

Purpose4/5

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

The description has a specific verb+object ('set override pixel aspect ratio') and is contextually distinct; however it lacks the target context (clip/sequence/project).

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

No guidance on when to use this vs alternatives; no exclusions or alternatives listed; the phrase 'expanded operation' is unclear.

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