Deploy Static Site from HTML

deploy-static-site-from-html

Deploy static website from HTML content by creating a storage bucket, uploading the HTML, and provisioning a VM with nginx to serve it.

Instructions

Create a bucket, upload HTML, and provision a VM that serves the bucket content via nginx.

Behavior3/5

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

With no annotations present, the description carries the transparency burden. It does disclose the main side effects: creating a bucket and provisioning a VM. However, it omits important behavioral context such as cost implications, idempotency, handling of existing resources, and whether the resources persist after creation.

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

Conciseness5/5

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

The description is a single well-structured sentence that lists the major steps in execution order with no filler. It is front-loaded and easy to parse, making it highly concise without losing essential information.

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

Completeness2/5

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

This is a complex provisioning operation with no output schema and no annotations, yet the description is only a high-level summary. It fails to mention prerequisites, required permissions, project targeting behavior, failure modes, or what the response contains, leaving significant gaps for an agent deciding whether and how to invoke it.

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 all parameters are already documented in the input schema. The description adds no additional semantics about how zone, vmName, bucketName, htmlContent, or projectId affect the deployment process, keeping this at the baseline.

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

Purpose4/5

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

The description clearly states the action: create a bucket, upload HTML, and provision a VM serving via nginx. It names concrete resources and steps, but it does not explicitly differentiate this tool from the similarly named sibling 'deploy-static-html-site', so it falls short of full sibling distinction.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'deploy-static-html-site', 'create-static-site-bucket', or 'upload-static-site-html'. There are no prerequisites, conditions, or exclusions mentioned, leaving the agent to infer suitability.

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