appqos_enable

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries the burden of behavioral disclosure. It usefully discloses that the operation is a write and requires confirmation, which is a meaningful safety signal. However, it does not explain the confirmation workflow, side effects, or whether the operation is reversible.

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 a single compact, front-loaded sentence with no filler. Every word contributes to the action, the resource, or the critical confirmation requirement.

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 write tool with confirmation parameters, no annotations, and no output schema, this description is incomplete. An agent cannot determine how to obtain confirmation_id/confirm_token, what mode values mean, or what the result of the operation will be.

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 0%, so the description needed to explain mode, user_code, confirm_token, and confirmation_id. It only implies mode through 'enable/disable' and leaves the confirmation-related parameters completely unexplained.

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 states a specific action (enable/disable) and a specific resource (APP QoS), making the tool's core purpose immediately clear. The parenthetical 'write — requires confirmation' further distinguishes it from the many read-style sibling tools such as appqos_view.

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 no explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like appqos_view or qos_setup. The intended use is implied only by the verb and tool name, and no prerequisites such as how to obtain a confirmation token are mentioned.

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