modifier_batch_add

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

No annotations are provided. The description lacks behavioral details such as whether the operation is atomic, handles partial failures, or has side effects beyond adding modifiers.

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 concise and front-loaded with the core purpose. The args list is compact and no unnecessary text.

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 complexity of a batch operation with 3 parameters and no output schema or annotations, the description is too minimal. It does not explain return value, error handling, or how batch addition works.

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 0%. The description adds basic semantics: object_names is a list, modifier_type references modifier_add, params are overrides. However, it does not fully compensate for the empty schema descriptions.

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 adds the same modifier to multiple objects at once. It distinguishes from sibling tools like modifier_add (single object) and add_modifier.

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 implies batch usage but provides no explicit when-to-use or alternatives. The sibling list includes modifier_add for single objects, but no guidance on when to choose this over other methods.

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