Parse ASN.1 Definition

parse_asn1_definition

Parse ASN.1 definition text into a JSON schema and extract defined type names for use in certificate and key management tasks.

Instructions

Parse a supported ASN.1 definition subset into ASN.1 Instance Builder Schema Model JSON and return defined type names.

Input Schema

Behavior2/5

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

No annotations exist, so description must disclose behavior; it only mentions 'supported subset' without error handling, validation, or read-only status, under-disclosing for a parsing tool.

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?

One sentence, front-loaded with verb and resource, no unnecessary words.

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

Completeness2/5

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

Given no output schema and tool complexity, the description should detail the returned JSON structure and type names; current vagueness leaves agents uncertain about output format.

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% with a clear parameter description; the tool description adds no new meaning beyond the schema, meriting the baseline score.

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 parses a supported ASN.1 definition subset into a specific JSON model and returns defined type names, distinguishing it from siblings like parse_asn1.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

The description implies usage for ASN.1 definitions but lacks explicit when/when-not guidance or alternatives, leaving the agent to infer context.

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