Update SDN subnet

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

Annotations indicate idempotency and non-destructiveness, but the description adds no behavioral context beyond stating the update action. It does not clarify whether the update is a full replacement or merge, what happens to unset parameters, or auth requirements.

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 single-sentence description is too minimal; it essentially restates the title and omits critical information. While concise, it sacrifices utility for brevity.

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?

Given the complexity of 8 parameters and no output schema, the description is woefully incomplete. It fails to explain return values, parameter constraints, or operational nuances, leaving significant gaps for the agent.

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 description provides no explanation of the 8 parameters, even though schema description coverage is 0%. Parameters like 'delete' (array of strings) and 'snat' (boolean) are ambiguous without further context, forcing the agent to guess their meaning.

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 action (update) and the resource (SDN subnet), distinguishing it from creation, deletion, or listing. However, it lacks detail on what specific properties can be updated, which would elevate clarity further.

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?

No guidance is provided on when to use this tool over alternatives like create_sdn_subnet or delete_sdn_subnet. There is no mention of prerequisites (e.g., the subnet must exist) or exclusions, leaving the agent to infer usage context.

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