TDQS

A4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnly=false, destructive=false, and idempotent=false. The description adds a useful behavioral outcome beyond those annotations: clearing the points resets the item to full duration. It does not cover permissions or undo semantics, but for a non-destructive mutation this is solid added context.

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?

A single sentence, front-loaded with the action and target, with no redundant or filler content. Every phrase contributes to identifying the tool and its effect.

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

Completeness4/5

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

For a simple three-parameter mutation tool with full schema coverage, annotations, and an output schema, the description is nearly complete. It states what the tool does and the key outcome. The main gap is lack of explicit usage alternatives among many siblings, which is minor given the clear naming.

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

Parameters3/5

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

Schema description coverage is 100%, so item_id, clear_in, and clear_out are already documented with types, defaults, and meanings. The description mentions in/out points but adds no syntax or format detail beyond the schema, making the baseline 3 appropriate.

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?

States a specific verb (clear), resource (in and/or out points), and target (project item), and adds the effect (reset to full duration). This distinguishes it from the sibling clear_sequence_in_out by scoping to a project item rather than a sequence.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

The description implies when to use it: when you need to remove in/out points from a project item and restore full duration. However, it gives no explicit when-not guidance or directs the agent to alternatives like set_item_in_out or clear_sequence_in_out.

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