Behavior2/5

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

The description adds no behavioral context beyond the action itself. Annotations only declare destructiveHint=false, so the agent knows it's non-destructive, but nothing about rule evaluation order, reversibility, or conflict handling is disclosed.

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?

The description is a single sentence with no waste, front-loading the core purpose. It is appropriately sized for a simple add-operation where schema carries the parameter detail.

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?

While the schema covers parameters, the description omits important context like priority ordering of rules, the mutual exclusivity of ipBlock and denyAllowGroupNo, and what happens when a rule already exists. It is sufficient for a basic understanding but not fully complete.

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

Parameters3/5

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

Schema description coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The description adds no parameter-level detail, but the schema already provides meaningful descriptions for all 8 parameters, including examples and alternatives.

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?

The description 'Add an inbound rule to a Network ACL' clearly states the action (add) and resource (Network ACL inbound rules). It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like ncloud_add_network_acl_outbound and ncloud_remove_network_acl_inbound by specifying the rule direction.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

The description implies usage (use for inbound rules) but provides no explicit guidance on when to choose this over alternatives, nor any exclusions. It does not mention related tools like the outbound counterpart, leaving the agent to infer from the name.

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