grok_mcp_restart_container

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

The annotation already indicates destructiveHint=true, and the description adds 'safely restart' and the command used. However, it does not elaborate on potential side effects (e.g., temporary service unavailability, data loss) beyond the hint.

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 sentences: first describes the action, second gives a condition. No redundant words, front-loaded with core purpose, and every sentence provides value.

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 restart tool with no parameters and an output schema existing, the description covers the main action and constraint. It could mention potential downtime or service impact, but it's adequate for the low complexity.

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?

With zero parameters, the schema provides no detail, and the description doesn't need parameter explanations. Baseline for no parameters is 4, and the description adds no extra parameter info but is not required.

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 tool restarts the UniGrok Docker container using 'docker compose up --build -d', specifying the exact action and resource, distinguishing it from sibling tools like 'grok_mcp_status'.

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 a prerequisite ('Only works if running in a context where docker compose is available and enabled'), informing when to use, but lacks explicit alternatives or when-not-to scenarios, though no similar sibling exists.

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