TDQS

A4/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already signal destructiveness via destructiveHint=true. The description adds 'ALL' scope and an implementation note ('Uses QE DOM'), but doesn't detail side effects, undo behavior, or whether audio and video effects are both included. No contradiction with annotations.

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?

Two short sentences with the key action front-loaded. The first sentence is highly efficient; the second adds a brief implementation hint. No redundancy, though 'Uses QE DOM' is of marginal value to an agent.

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

Completeness5/5

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

For a single-parameter destructive tool with full schema coverage, a descriptive schema, an output schema, and destructive annotations, the description provides the essential scope and target. Nothing critical is missing for correct selection and invocation.

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?

The schema fully describes the only parameter, node_id, as 'Node ID of the clip', and schema coverage is 100%. The description reinforces the clip target but doesn't add meaningful parameter semantics beyond the schema.

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 ('Remove'), a precise scope ('ALL effects'), and a clear target ('from a clip'). This clearly distinguishes it from siblings like remove_effect and remove_effect_by_name, which target specific or named effects.

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 description clearly implies the usage scenario: use this when every effect on a clip should be removed at once. It doesn't explicitly name alternatives or state when not to use it, but the capitalized 'ALL' and the contrast with sibling names provide adequate guidance.

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