iaas_update_azure_storage_profile

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=false, idempotentHint=false, destructiveHint=false and openWorldHint=true, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds nothing beyond the endpoint path (which is duplicated in the annotation title) – notably silent on whether this is a merge/PATCH-partial or a full-spec replacement, even though the body schema requires name and regionId.

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?

Two short lines, front-loaded with the action and resource, no filler. Only deduction is the 'storage class' vs 'storage profile' wording, which is imprecision rather than verbosity.

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?

For a mutation tool with a nested-object body, the schema plus annotations carry most of the load, so the definition is minimally sufficient. However, it omits replacement semantics, whether unspecified fields are cleared, and any hint about the required name/regionId pair – details that matter for calling a PATCH correctly.

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 100%, so the nested body fields (diskType, osDiskCaching, storageAccountId, etc.) and the path id are fully documented in the schema. The description contributes nothing beyond that, so the baseline of 3 is appropriate rather than higher.

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?

States a specific verb and resource ('Update Azure storage class') plus the underlying endpoint, and the 'Azure' qualifier distinguishes it from the AWS/vSphere/GCP update siblings. Minor friction: it says 'storage class' where the tool name and schema say 'storage profile', a terminology mismatch an agent must reconcile.

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 when-to-use guidance, no prerequisites (e.g., fetch the existing profile first, or that id comes from iaas_get_azure_storage_profiles), and no mention of alternatives such as iaas_replace_storage_profile or the related Azure create/delete tools. The agent must infer all routing from sibling names alone.

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