update_comments_by_item

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

No annotations are provided, so the description bears full responsibility for behavioral disclosure. It does not mention required permissions, whether the update is partial or full, idempotency, or any side effects. The description is completely silent on behavior.

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 'Update One' is extremely short, but it is under-specified rather than concise. Every sentence should earn its place, but here the description lacks substance entirely, making it insufficient for guiding tool use.

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's complexity (4 parameters, required fields, output schema), the description provides no useful context. It does not mention return values, limitations, or prerequisites, leaving the agent with an incomplete understanding.

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 0%, meaning the description adds no information about the four parameters (id, text, item_id, accept-language). Without any parameter explanation, the description fails to help the agent understand how to use them correctly.

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 'Update One' is a tautology – it restates the verb 'update' without specifying what resource is being updated or distinguishing it from many sibling tools like delete_comments_by_item or get_comments_by_item. The name provides more clarity than the description.

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?

There is no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as create_comments or delete_comments_by_item. The description fails to provide any context for appropriate use.

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