Update a tool access profile

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=false and destructiveHint=false, so the description does not need to repeat those. The description adds that authorization class is 'board', which is a useful behavioral constraint. However, it does not disclose other important aspects like whether this is a partial update or full replacement, or error conditions.

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 short and front-loaded, but it is too sparse for the complexity of the tool. It doesn't waste words, but it fails to provide necessary details, making it under-informative rather than concise.

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?

Given the tool's complex input schema (nested objects, many fields) and the existence of an output schema, the description is severely incomplete. It does not explain update semantics, prerequisites, or expected outcome, leaving the agent to rely solely on the parameter names.

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%, yet the description provides zero information about the parameters. The body contains numerous fields including a nested entries array with multiple subfields, but the agent receives no guidance on how to structure these or what values are valid.

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 title and description clearly state 'Update a tool access profile', which is a specific verb-resource combination. The sibling tools include create, delete, and duplicate, so this tool is unambiguously the update operation.

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 guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. It doesn't mention that the profile must exist or that for creation one should use pc_post_companies_by_company_id_tools_profiles.

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