list_animator_override_controllers

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

No annotations present; description is minimal. It only states the listing action but does not disclose any behavioral traits such as read-only nature, required permissions, or output format.

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?

Single sentence with no unnecessary words. Efficiently conveys the tool's purpose.

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?

Lacks details about the output, such as what properties of the .controller assets are returned. For a listing tool, users may need format or example output.

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?

No parameters exist (schema coverage 100%). Baseline is 4 for zero parameters; description adds meaning by specifying the resource type being listed.

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?

Clearly states the action 'List' and the specific resource 'AnimatorOverrideController .controller assets'. Distinguishes from sibling 'list_animator_controllers' by specifying the override variant.

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 usage guidelines provided. Does not indicate when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'list_animator_controllers' or other list tools.

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