resume_schedule

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

With no annotations, the description explains that the schedule will resume firing at its next scheduled time. However, it does not disclose edge cases (e.g., invalid schedule_id, already running schedule) or potential side effects, leaving gaps in transparency.

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?

Two short, focused sentences provide the core action and key usage hint. No wordiness; every sentence serves a 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?

For a simple tool with one parameter and an output schema, the description adequately explains the function. It lacks return value details, but the output schema likely covers that.

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%, and the description adds value by stating to use the schedule_id from schedule_cron_notification, which aids correct invocation beyond the schema's parameter description.

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 verb 'Resume' and the resource 'paused scheduled notification'/'cron schedule'. It specifies using the schedule_id from schedule_cron_notification, distinguishing it from siblings like pause_schedule and delete_schedule.

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 context for when to use the tool (resuming a paused schedule) and references the source of the schedule_id. It does not explicitly state when not to use it or compare with alternatives, but the sibling tool names imply the scope.

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