TDQS

A3.8/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

With no annotations, the description carries the full burden and does disclose a permission requirement and a confirmation safeguard. However, it does not explain what 'exact assignment confirmation' means in practice, nor what side effects or postconditions reassignment has.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Two short sentences with no filler. The action is front-loaded and the permission/confirmation constraints are stated directly afterward.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness3/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

The description covers the action and a key safety requirement, but with no annotations and no output schema it leaves important operational details unresolved: what 'exact assignment confirmation' means for the parameters, what 'profile' is, and what the result or failure behavior looks like.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters2/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 0%, so the description must compensate. It hints that 'responsible' is the target user and that confirmation is required, but it leaves 'profile' completely unexplained and does not clarify that 'confirm_assignment_id' should likely match 'assignment_id'.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description uses a specific verb ('Reassign') with a clear resource ('an assignment') and target ('another responsible user'). It is easily distinguished from sibling tools like create_assignment, archive_assignment, or change_assignment_status.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The action itself makes the primary use case clear: use this when an assignment should be moved to a different responsible user. It also states required permissions, giving access context, though it does not explicitly name alternatives or when not to use it.

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