azure_validate_private_endpoints

Validate Azure Private Endpoint and Private Link security by checking connection status, DNS integration, network policies, and public access exposure, returning coverage and risk warnings.

Instructions

NEW in v1.14.0 Validate Private Endpoint and Private Link security configurations. Checks: approved/pending connections, network policies enforcement, DNS integration (private DNS zones), public access bypass, subnet delegation, private endpoint policies, service-specific configurations (Storage, SQL, KeyVault, CosmosDB). Returns: private endpoint coverage, pending approval risks, DNS misconfiguration warnings, public access exposure.

Behavior3/5

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

No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. It describes validation checks and returns, but does not explicitly state that the tool is read-only or non-destructive. Missing details on authentication requirements or rate limits. Adequate but not explicit.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Description is concise and front-loaded with version info. It lists checks and returns efficiently without wasted sentences. Could benefit from structured bullet points for readability.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness3/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Covers the purpose and return types, but does not explain the 'format' or 'validateDNS' parameters or output structure. With no output schema, the description should detail the format of returned data.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100%, so parameters are already documented. The description adds little beyond the schema; it does not provide examples or clarify values for 'serviceTy' or format. Baseline 3 is appropriate.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states the verb 'Validate' and the resource 'Private Endpoint and Private Link security configurations'. It lists specific checks and return values, distinguishing it from sibling tools that analyze other Azure services.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines3/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

No explicit guidance on when to use this tool vs alternatives. While the name and description imply private endpoint validation, it does not state when not to use it or suggest sibling tools for other scenarios.

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