asc_register_bundle_id

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

There are no annotations, so the description carries the full behavioral burden. It states that the tool 'registers' an App ID, but it does not disclose side effects, duplicate failures, permissions/authentication requirements, or any post-registration behavior. For a mutation-like portal operation this is a significant gap.

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 description is one front-loaded sentence with no filler. It could earn a 5 if it added a usage note, but it remains appropriately concise for a two-parameter tool.

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?

With no annotations and no output schema, the description should provide more operational context. It does not mention what happens on duplicate App IDs, whether name is truly optional, or what the API returns after registration, so the agent has to guess at the call's contract.

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 only clarifies 'identifier' as a bundle identifier. It does not explain the optional 'name' parameter, its default, or how it affects registration, leaving almost all semantic weight on the schema titles.

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 uses a specific verb ('Register') and object ('explicit App ID (bundle identifier)') and scopes it to the Apple Developer portal, which cleanly identifies what the tool does. This also differentiates it from sibling tools like asc_register_device or asc_enable_capability by naming the exact resource type.

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 Apple Developer portal context implies when to use it, but the description provides no explicit guidance about when to choose this tool over alternatives such as asc_register_device or asc_list. Usage is inferable from the bundle-identifier wording, but exclusions and prerequisites are absent.

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