validate_connection

Validate iSuite connection configurations to ensure databases, APIs, SMTP servers, and other endpoints are reachable and properly configured.

Instructions

Test and validate a specific iSuite connection configuration (database, API endpoint, SMTP, etc.).

A3.5/5.0

Behavior3/5

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

With no annotations provided, the description partially covers behavior by indicating it's a test/validation operation (non-destructive). However, it does not disclose return values, error handling, authentication needs, 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.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is a single, well-structured sentence that front-loads the verb and resource. Every word is necessary; there is no redundancy or filler.

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?

For a simple validation tool with 3 parameters and no output schema, the description is adequate but lacks explanation of return format (success/failure) and whether the tool modifies state. It covers the basics but misses contextual details.

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 100%, so the description adds minimal value beyond existing parameter descriptions and enum values. It only provides high-level examples of connection types, no additional syntax or constraints.

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 clearly states the verb 'Test and validate' and the resource 'iSuite connection configuration', with example types (database, API endpoint, SMTP) that distinguish it from sibling tools like 'validate_config' which deals with config values.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The description provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives (e.g., validate_config, check_system_health). It does not mention prerequisites, when not to use, or typical scenarios.

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