startup_script_create_startup_script

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

There are no annotations, so the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It states that a resource is created and that details are returned, but it does not mention permissions, side effects, naming constraints, script size limits, or whether the boot/pxe type affects lifecycle 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 appropriately sized and front-loaded with the core purpose. The Args and Returns sections are compact, and every line adds useful information without unnecessary filler.

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?

The description is adequate for a simple create operation and covers the required parameters plus return details. However, it lacks guidance on which sibling create tool to use and does not disclose any behavioral constraints or prerequisites, which is a meaningful gap given the absence of annotations.

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?

The schema has zero description coverage, but the description compensates by explaining each parameter: name, script, and script_type. It also clarifies the allowed script_type values ('boot' or 'pxe'), though it does not reinforce that script_type has a default value or describe any constraints on script content.

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 a specific verb and resource: 'Create a new startup script.' It also distinguishes itself from update/get/list/delete startup script siblings, but it does not differentiate itself from the sibling startup_script_create_common_startup_script, so there is some ambiguity about which create path to choose.

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 no explicit guidance about when to use this tool versus alternatives like startup_script_create_common_startup_script or the various boot/pxe list tools. The usage context is only implied by the name and the 'Create' verb, with no exclusions or alternative routing.

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