meta_ads_ads_enable

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

The description discloses the behavioral effect (status change), the condition for actual serving (parent must be ACTIVE), and the return format (ad_id and status). It mentions reversibility, covering key behaviors even without annotations.

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?

The description is extremely concise with three sentences, front-loading the core action. Every sentence adds value with no unnecessary words.

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?

The description covers the tool's purpose, preconditions, return values, and reversibility. For a simple enable operation, this is sufficiently complete, though it could mention that the ad status must be PAUSED.

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?

The input schema already provides full description coverage (100%). The description adds no additional meaning to the parameters beyond what is in the schema, so baseline score of 3 is appropriate.

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 resumes a paused ad by setting its status to ACTIVE, and distinguishes it from siblings like meta_ads_ads_pause by specifying the action and reversibility.

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 provides clear context for when to use the tool (resume a paused ad) and notes alternatives for reversal (rollback_apply or meta_ads_ads_pause), but does not explicitly state 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.
