wpf_export_tree

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

No behavioral traits disclosed beyond the action. No annotations provided, so description should cover safety, auth, or side effects, but it does not. Unclear if operation is read-only or modifies state.

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?

Extremely short (one sentence) but omits critical details. Not effectively concise; would benefit from clarifying parameters and output format.

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?

Very incomplete. No output schema, no parameter documentation, no annotations. Agent lacks information to invoke tool correctly (valid format values, element_handle usage, return format).

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%. Description does not explain the format parameter's valid values (only suggests XAML/JSON) or the element_handle parameter's purpose (e.g., root element handle). No default values clarified.

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?

Description clearly states the action (Export) and resource (visual tree) with format options (XAML or JSON). It distinguishes from sibling tool wpf_get_visual_tree by implying file/string output, but could specify whether output is to file or returned.

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 tool vs alternatives like wpf_get_visual_tree. No context about prerequisites or exclusions.

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