fusion_list_faces

Read-only

List a body's faces with index, area, planarity, centroid, and normal, then use a planar face index for sketching or drilling.

Instructions

List a body's faces (index, area mm², is_planar, centroid, normal). Use a planar face's index to sketch/drill on it (fusion_create_sketch_on_face, fusion_hole with on_body/on_face).

Behavior4/5

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

Annotations indicate readOnlyHint=true, destructiveHint=false. Description adds details about output properties and usage hints. No contradictions; description enriches behavioral understanding.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Two concise sentences: first states action and output, second gives usage guidance. No wasted words, well-structured.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness3/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a simple list tool with no output schema, description provides output properties and usage context. However, parameter details are missing, which is a gap given low schema coverage.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters2/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 0%, yet description does not clarify the 'body' parameter format (integer or string) or how to identify the body. Only mentions 'body' without additional semantics.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

Description clearly states the tool lists faces of a body and specifies returned properties (index, area mm², is_planar, centroid, normal). It also provides downstream usage examples, making the purpose unmistakable.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Explicitly states when to use (list faces) and references specific downstream tools (fusion_create_sketch_on_face, fusion_hole). Lacks explicit exclusions or alternatives but provides clear context.

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