Destructive

Restore a saved debugging session from a JSON file, including breakpoints, bookmarks, comments, and application arguments.

Instructions

Args: params (SessionFileInput): Input - file_path (str): Full path to session file

Returns: str: Load confirmation with details

Behavior4/5

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

Annotations indicate destructiveHint=true, and the description adds context about what gets restored (breakpoints, etc.), aligning with the destructive nature. No contradictions.

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 concise, front-loaded with the main action, and includes a summary of restored components without unnecessary details.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Given the simple tool (one parameter, no nested objects) and presence of an output schema (indicated but not shown), the description covers the necessary context, though it lacks error handling or authorization 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?

Despite schema description coverage of 0% (per context), the description lists the parameter and its type, adding value by clarifying the file_path argument. The schema itself has a description, so the description's contribution is marginal.

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 tool loads a debugging session from a JSON file, specifies what it restores (breakpoints, bookmarks, comments, binary path, arguments), and distinguishes it from siblings like edb_session_save.

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?

The description implies usage for loading a previously saved session, and the sibling edb_session_save provides contrast. However, it does not explicitly state when not to use or provide alternative guidance.

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