Enumerate kernel memory ranges with specified protection flags for dynamic analysis.
Call Kernel.enumerateRanges().
This tool declares no required parameters. Add optional parameters from the input schema as needed.

Changes observed during successful MCP inspections.
v0.1.0Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations present, and the description only repeats the API call. It does not disclose any behavioral traits such as safety, side effects, or return behavior.
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 concise but at the cost of missing critical information. The single sentence does not earn its place as it provides no value beyond the tool name.
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 kernel enumeration and the lack of annotations or output schema, the description is wholly incomplete. It fails to explain what ranges are, what the protection parameter does, or what the return value is.
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% and the description adds no meaning to the 'protection' parameter beyond its default value.
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 'Call Kernel.enumerateRanges()' is essentially a tautology of the tool name. It does not specify the purpose or differentiate from sibling tools like frida_enumerate_ranges (user-space) or frida_kernel_enumerate_module_ranges.
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 usage guidelines provided. No indication of when to use this tool over other enumeration tools or when not to use it.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
