sophos_update_tls_excluded_websites

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

No annotations provided, and the description only says 'Add or remove' without disclosing behavioral details: whether it merges or replaces, atomicity, permissions, or side effects. Schema covers parameters but the tool's mutation behavior is underexplained.

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?

Two sentences with no wasted words. Front-loaded with purpose, followed by a concise usage hint. Every sentence earns its place.

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 explanation of return values, error handling, behavior when both add and remove are provided, or prerequisites. Given no output schema and moderate complexity, the description leaves gaps.

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 description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents parameters with examples. The description adds minimal value by repeating 'Pass JSON arrays', which is already implied. Baseline 3 is appropriate.

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 'Add or remove websites from TLS decryption exclusions' with a specific verb and resource. It distinguishes from sibling tools like sophos_list_tls_excluded_websites (listing) and sophos_update_tls_decryption_settings (broader settings update).

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 implies usage by saying 'in a single call' but does not explicitly differentiate from alternatives like sophos_update_tls_decryption_settings or provide when-to-use guidance. It lacks explicit exclusions or comparisons, making it adequate but not strong.

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