create_summit_bobcat

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

With no annotations, the description must fully disclose behaviors. It only states 'Build Bobcat V1 blockout' without explaining side effects, idempotency, or whether it modifies existing objects. The parameter 'clear_existing' hints at behavior but is not explained.

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 very concise with one sentence. However, it omits critical information, suggesting it is under-specified rather than optimally concise. It is not overly verbose, but could be more informative without sacrificing brevity.

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?

Despite having only one parameter and an output schema, the description lacks detail on the return value and the parameter's behavior. It does not cover what the tool produces or any prerequisites, making it incomplete for an agent to use correctly.

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 0%, and the description does not mention the 'clear_existing' parameter at all. The agent receives no guidance on the parameter's purpose or effect beyond the schema's minimal name and type.

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 identifies the tool as building a 'Bobcat V1 blockout' with simple boxes and animations. It distinguishes from the sibling tool 'create_summit_bobcat_v2' by specifying V1, making the purpose specific.

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 guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'create_summit_bobcat_v2' or other creation tools. The description does not provide context for appropriate usage scenarios.

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