ableton_rollback_snapshot

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

No annotations are provided, so the description must disclose behavior. It only states 'rollback the project', but does not mention whether the action is irreversible, requires confirmation, or affects other snapshots. The parameter description notes the source of snapshotId, which is helpful but insufficient.

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 one short sentence of 9 words, perfectly concise with no superfluous information. Every word earns its place.

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?

Given the tool's simplicity (1 parameter, no output schema, no annotations), the description provides basic understanding but lacks behavioral details like reversibility or side effects. Adequate for a core action but incomplete for safe usage.

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 coverage is 100% with one parameter described as 'Snapshot ID returned by ableton_create_snapshot.' This adds value by specifying the origin of the ID, but does not elaborate on format or constraints. Baseline for high coverage is 3, and the description meets that adequately.

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 clearly states the verb 'rollback' and the resource 'project to a previously created bridge snapshot', making the tool's purpose explicit. It distinguishes itself from siblings like ableton_create_snapshot, which creates snapshots.

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 guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, such as other undo or revert methods. The description lacks any context about prerequisites or when rollback is appropriate.

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