sdcloud_update_ssl_initiation

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

The description gives no behavioral traits beyond 'update'. It does not disclose whether the update is partial or full, what side effects occur, or any authorization requirements. No annotations are provided to supplement.

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 extremely brief (6 words), but this brevity comes at the cost of missing critical details. It is under-specified rather than efficiently concise.

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 has 2 parameters, no output schema, and no annotations, the description is completely inadequate. It fails to explain the return value, behavior after update, or any prerequisites.

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 50% (body has a description, uuid has none). The description adds no extra meaning: for uuid it is just 'uuid', and for body it repeats the schema's description. The body parameter's structure is left unspecified, which is a significant gap.

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 'update' and the resource 'SSL initiation object', and the method 'by UUID'. It provides a specific verb and resource, but does not differentiate from sibling tools like 'sdcloud_create_ssl_initiation'.

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?

No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives (e.g., create, delete, get). There is no mention of prerequisites, context, or when not to use it.

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