hs4.admin.interfaces.restart

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

With no annotations, the description carries full burden. It only states the action without disclosing behavioral traits: what happens during restart, any disruption to services, required permissions, or need for maintenance windows. The schema hints at risks via parameters like riskLevel and confirm, but the description does not elaborate.

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 a single sentence, achieving high conciseness with no superfluous words. However, it may be too brief for a tool with 10 parameters, lacking structure to guide the agent effectively.

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 complexity (10 params, no output schema), the description is insufficient. It omits details like whether the restart is safe, requires dry run, or what the outcome is. The sibling context shows other admin tools, but this description does not leverage that for completeness.

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 high (90%), so the baseline is 3. The description adds no additional meaning beyond parameter names and types already documented in the schema, but does not contradict or confuse.

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 'Restart' and the resource 'interface', indicating a specific action on a specific entity. It is concise and unambiguous, but does not explicitly differentiate from similar sibling tools like hs4.admin.plugins.restart, though the resource name does.

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 such as diagnostics or update, nor any prerequisites, when not to use, or impact. The description lacks any context about appropriate usage scenarios.

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