set_cell_view_maximized

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

With no annotations, the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It thoroughly explains the effects on narrow vs. wide cells and what happens when value is false, giving a complete picture of the toggle's behavior.

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 three sentences, front-loaded with the primary action, and every sentence adds useful detail. No redundant or filler content.

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 toggle tool, the description covers the behavior well and gives enough contextual cues. It lacks an explicit mention of what the parameters mean beyond value, and does not differentiate from set_cell_maximized, but overall the behavior is sufficiently complete.

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?

Schema coverage is 0%, and the description does not define buffer_id or cell_id. It only implicitly explains value as the boolean toggle ('When this is false'). This leaves the identity parameters unexplained, failing to compensate for the lack of schema descriptions.

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 opens with a specific verb and resource: 'Toggle whether the cell's result view (chart OR table) fills the cell, hiding the editor.' This clearly distinguishes it from siblings like set_cell_maximized, which would affect the entire cell rather than the result view within it.

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 provides clear context for when the tool applies: 'Applies to any cell that has a result — not just charts.' It does not explicitly call out alternatives or exclusions, but the context is sufficient for an agent to understand the typical use case.

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