laddro.settings.updateModel

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

Annotations indicate write operation but not destructive. The description adds that it saves an encrypted API key, providing context beyond annotations. However, it does not mention whether updates overwrite existing settings or any authentication requirements.

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 sentences, concise and front-loaded with the main action. No extraneous information.

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?

Description covers key functionality with output schema presumably handling return details. Could mention that it overwrites existing settings, but overall sufficient for a simple configuration tool.

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?

Input schema has 100% description coverage, so the description adds little extra meaning. It reinforces that the API key is encrypted, but for provider and model, it adds no additional semantics beyond the schema.

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 configures AI provider and model for BYOK, and saves an encrypted API key. The verb 'Configure' and specific resource 'AI provider and model for BYOK' distinguish it from siblings like deleteModel and get.

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 implies usage for setting up BYOK, but does not explicitly state when to use this tool versus alternatives like get or deleteModel. No when-not or alternative guidance is provided.

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