Trigger deploy

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

No annotations are provided, so the description bears the full burden. It fails to disclose side effects, idempotency, return value, or the behavior of the 'force' parameter, and does not mention whether the deployment is asynchronous or immediate. This is a mutation tool with significant missing transparency.

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 entire description is a single, front-loaded sentence with no filler words. It states the verb, resource, and scoping information in a compact, easily parseable form, achieving high efficiency without unnecessary detail.

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 there is no output schema and four parameters, the description is incomplete: it does not explain the purpose of 'pr' and 'force', nor what response to expect. It also fails to contextualize the deployment within the broader set of sibling tools (e.g., how it relates to startApplication or cancelDeployment).

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%, so the description must compensate. It clarifies that 'uuid' and 'tag' are identifiers, but completely omits the 'pr' and 'force' parameters, leaving their meanings ambiguous. The description only covers half of the parameters.

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 action ('Trigger a deployment') and the target ('an application'), with identifiers by UUID or tag. This distinguishes it from sibling tools like cancelDeployment or listDeployments.

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 a deployment action but provides no explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, nor prerequisites such as needing an existing application or a particular deployment method. There are no exclusions or when-not-to-use instructions.

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