review_submission_items__update

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

Annotations already disclose readOnlyHint=false, idempotentHint=true, and destructiveHint=true. Description adds 'RELEASE-level write' and the HTTP method, but does not explain destructive implications (e.g., setting removed=true might remove the item). No contradiction with annotations.

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?

Very concise: a single sentence plus HTTP path, with no redundant text. The verb 'Update' is front-loaded.

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?

This is a nested-body mutation tool with destructiveHint=true and no output schema, but the description only says 'Update a review submission item.' It lacks context about effects (removed/resolved), return values, or any constraints, leaving significant gaps for correct invocation.

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 100%, so the schema fully documents id and body. The description adds no extra meaning beyond what the schema already provides, leaving semantics at baseline.

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?

States 'Update a review submission item' with the HTTP path, clearly identifying the action and resource. Distinguishes from sibling create/delete tools for the same resource.

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 on when to use this vs alternatives like review_submissions__update or review_submission_items__create. Does not mention what attributes can be changed or prerequisites, so the agent must infer usage from the schema.

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