cypress_generate

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

No annotations provided, and the description is too brief (7 words) to disclose behavioral traits like side effects (e.g., file overwrite), authorization needs, or return behavior. For a generation tool, critical details are missing.

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 (one sentence) but fails to provide necessary context. Efficiency is not valuable if the content is insufficient for correct use.

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 no annotations, no output schema, and sibling tools, the description is woefully incomplete. Does not explain return values, error handling, or integration with other Cypress tools.

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 100% with descriptions for all parameters. However, the description adds no additional meaning beyond the schema; it merely repeats the action. Baseline 3 applies.

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 generates a Cypress test file from a description. It distinguishes from sibling tools that execute, get results, etc., but could be more specific about the input format (e.g., natural language to code).

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. Missing context such as whether a project must be open, required dependencies, or exclusions (e.g., not for existing files).

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