Deploy App Settings

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It discloses the asynchronous behavior and the need to check status, but does not mention potential destructive impacts, authentication requirements, or rate limits. The async note is helpful but incomplete.

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 extremely concise with two sentences. The purpose is front-loaded, followed by the important async note. No fluff or redundancy.

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 context signals (output schema exists, no nested objects, 2 params), the description is fairly complete. It covers the core purpose and async workflow. It does not explain return values, but the output schema likely covers that. Minor gap: no mention of error scenarios.

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 baseline is 3. The description does not add any parameter-level detail beyond what the schema already provides. It remains at baseline.

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 tool deploys app settings from pre-live to production on kintone, using a specific verb and resource. It distinguishes from sibling tools (which handle CRUD operations) by focusing on deployment.

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?

The description mentions the asynchronous nature and advises using kintone-get-app-deploy-status to check progress. While it doesn't explicitly list alternatives or when not to use, the sibling list shows no other deploy tool, making this guidance sufficient.

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