TDQS

B3.2/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=false, idempotentHint=false, and destructiveHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds the ordering behavior ('in order'), which is useful context, but says nothing about what happens to existing sequences, error conditions, or ordering semantics. With annotations carrying the safety burden, a 3 is appropriate.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

A single efficient sentence with no waste and the core action front-loaded. It is arguably too terse to earn a 5 given the competitive sibling set, but nothing is redundant.

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?

An output schema exists, so return-value explanation is unnecessary, and both parameters are fully documented. However, for a mutation/creation tool against a large sibling set of sequence-creation tools, the description does not supply enough routing or behavioral context to be complete.

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 both parameters are documented by the schema; the baseline is 3. The phrase 'placing project items in order' loosely conveys that item_ids order is significant, but adds no syntax or format detail beyond what the schema already says.

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

Purpose4/5

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

The description states a specific verb and resource ('Create a new sequence') plus the mechanism ('automatically placing project items in order'), which is clearer than a bare tautology. It does not, however, distinguish itself from close siblings like create_sequence, create_sequence_from_preset, or create_subsequence, which an agent must disambiguate between.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

There is no when-to-use guidance and no mention of alternatives such as create_sequence or create_sequence_from_preset, leaving the agent to infer selection from the name alone. The only implicit signal is 'from clips', which is unstated as a routing condition.

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