winops_auto_task_run

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

Annotations already flag a non-read-only, non-idempotent operation; the description adds that the task runs immediately and documents the return shape ({success, task_name}). It does not warn about possible side effects of running the scheduled task or mention auth/rate considerations, so it is adequate but not rich.

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?

Three short sections (purpose, return format, example) with zero filler; the example is compact and useful, and the JSON return format is clearly presented.

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 one-parameter imperative tool, the description plus schema and annotations is sufficient: it states the action, the parameter, and the return value. It does not cover asynchronous behavior or side-effect caveats, but those are not essential for basic selection and invocation.

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 single parameter is fully documented in the schema ('Task name to trigger immediately'); the description adds an example value but no additional semantic meaning. Baseline 3 applies because schema description coverage is 100%.

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 uses a specific verb ('Trigger') and resource ('Windows Scheduled Task') and specifies immediate execution, which clearly distinguishes it from sibling tools such as winops_auto_task_list, winops_auto_task_create, and winops_auto_task_delete.

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?

It conveys a clear use case: manually run an existing scheduled task now. It does not explicitly mention alternatives or when not to use it, but the context is clear enough for an agent to decide when invocation is appropriate.

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