commission_plan

Read-onlyIdempotent

Determines the wave-by-wave energisation order for a built plant so each startup wave fits available grid headroom and generator output, preventing fuse trips.

Instructions

Startup order for a built plant: which blocks to energise in which wave without blowing the fuse.

Not a build order: build everything first, then energise wave by wave. A wave's consumer draw must fit in headroom plus the output of generators already burning, or the fuse blows and stops the whole grid until reset by hand. Generators energise free and pay for the next wave.

  4. First observedv0.1.0

TDQS

A3.8/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Goes well beyond the readOnlyHint/idempotentHint annotations by explaining the underlying mechanic: a wave must fit headroom plus running generator output, or 'the fuse blows and stops the whole grid until reset by hand.' That consequence framing is genuinely useful context even though the tool itself is a safe read. It stops short of saying what the tool returns or that computing costs nothing.

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?

Front-loaded with the core statement in the first sentence, and every subsequent sentence adds domain meaning rather than filler. The hard line wrapping makes it slightly harder to scan than it needs to be, but there is no wasted content.

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?

Covers the domain model (waves, headroom, fuse) well for a complex 8-parameter tool, and annotations already assure it is non-destructive. However, with no output schema and no statement of what the returned plan looks like or whether it is paginated (limit/offset), an agent still lacks a picture of the result.

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 coverage is 50% and 8 parameters exist; the description names no parameters at all, so plan/save/as_of/limit/world/offset rely entirely on schema text (and several have none). It indirectly illuminates headroom_mw by explaining the headroom concept ('headroom plus the output of generators already burning'), which is real added meaning, but not enough to compensate for the undocumented half.

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?

Opens with a specific verb+resource: 'Startup order for a built plant: which blocks to energise in which wave.' It explicitly distinguishes itself from a build order, which separates it from build-oriented siblings like site_plan and plan_factory, though it never names a sibling directly.

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?

'Not a build order: build everything first, then energise wave by wave' clearly states the precondition and when this tool applies. It gives a strong usage condition but never names an alternative tool (e.g. plan_factory, site_plan) for the build-order case, leaving the routing implicit.

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