fusion_create_flat_pattern

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

Annotations indicate readOnlyHint=false and destructiveHint=false, so description adds the key behavioral limitation that the API cannot create flanges/bends. This adds context beyond annotations but does not fully describe behavior like return values or side effects.

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 two sentences (21 words), front-loaded with the core purpose, and includes a critical note. Every sentence adds value with no redundancy.

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?

For a simple tool with one parameter and no output schema, the description covers purpose and a key limitation. However, the lack of parameter format guidance and any description of what the flat pattern creation entails (e.g., new feature added) leaves 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?

With 0% schema description coverage, the description must compensate. It adds that the body must be 'sheet-metal' and 'EXISTING', but provides no guidance on how to specify the body (e.g., ID or name), leaving the parameter ambiguous.

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 identifies the tool's action ('Create a flat pattern') and the specific resource ('EXISTING sheet-metal body'). It distinguishes from siblings by focusing on flat patterns, a unique capability among the listed tools.

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 implies usage context ('from an EXISTING sheet-metal body') and notes a limitation about flanges/bends, but does not explicitly compare to alternatives or state when not to use. Guidance is implied but not explicit.

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