cancel_capability_setup

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

Annotations already declare idempotentHint=true and destructiveHint=false, and the description adds 'cleanup' and 'request' nuance without contradicting them. It does not explain what cleanup entails or whether the cancellation is asynchronous or can partially fail, so the added behavioral context is modest.

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?

A single, front-loaded sentence that names the action and the object with no filler. Every phrase earns its place, including the 'server-owned' scoping.

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?

With an output schema, the return format is already handled, and the annotations cover idempotency and destructive profile. However, the description omits guidance on when cancellation is appropriate and what cleanup actually affects, leaving the agent to fill gaps.

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?

Schema description coverage is 0% and the description never explains operation_id, its format, or where to obtain it. The parameter is only self-evident from its name and the tool's purpose, so the description does not compensate for the missing schema documentation.

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 uses a specific verb ('cancel') with a specific resource ('capability setup operation') and adds the 'server-owned' scope. This clearly distinguishes it from siblings like start_capability_setup and get_capability_setup.

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 intended use is implied: use this tool when a capability setup operation should be cancelled and cleaned up. However, it provides no explicit conditions, prerequisites, or contrast with alternatives such as get_capability_setup, leaving the agent to infer when cancellation is valid.

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