CreateSqlAlarmRule

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

With no annotations, the description carries full responsibility for behavioral disclosure, but it reveals nothing about side effects, permissions, prerequisites, or what happens when the rule is created. The description is completely opaque about runtime behavior.

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 under-specified. While it is short, it violates the principle that every sentence should earn its place; this single phrase adds no value beyond the tool name. True conciseness includes informativeness, not just brevity.

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?

This is a complex tool with a large nested schema, no annotations, and no output schema. The description provides almost no operational context, leaving the agent without essential information about the purpose, behavior, or parameters of the tool. It is wholly inadequate for correct invocation.

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?

The description adds no meaning to the input schema. The schema has complex nested objects (e.g., body.sql_requests, body.frequency) with no property descriptions, and the tool description fails to clarify their purpose or relationships. With 67% schema description coverage but a large undocumented body, the description does nothing to compensate.

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 'Huawei Cloud LTS operation CreateSqlAlarmRule' merely restates the tool name with a generic cloud prefix. It provides no substantive explanation of what creating a SQL alarm rule entails, nor does it distinguish the tool from siblings like CreateKeywordsAlarmRule.

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?

There is zero guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. No context is given about the intended use case, prerequisites, or scenarios where CreateSqlAlarmRule should be preferred over other rule-creation tools.

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