C2.9/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=false, openWorldHint=true, idempotentHint=false, and destructiveHint=false. The description adds only the endpoint, which is already reflected in the annotation title, and does not explain side effects, permissions, or what creation actually provisions.

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?

The description is front-loaded and very short: one functional sentence plus the endpoint. It is efficient, though the endpoint duplicates information in the annotation title and therefore does not fully earn its place.

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?

For a nested, non-destructive mutation tool with no output schema, the description is thin but not invalid. The rich schema documents the body fields and annotations cover the basic safety profile, yet the description does not explain side effects or return behavior.

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 description coverage is 100%, including detailed nested body field descriptions such as deviceType, regionId, name, and tags. The description adds no parameter semantics of its own, so baseline 3 is appropriate.

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 states a specific verb and resource: "Create AWS storage class," and includes the POST endpoint. It clearly identifies the AWS-specific storage profile creation operation, though it does not explicitly distinguish it from the generic iaas_create_storage_profile sibling.

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?

There is no guidance on when to use this tool versus the generic create_storage_profile tool or the corresponding update/delete AWS storage profile tools. Usage is only implied by the tool name and "Create AWS storage class."

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