B3.2/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

With no annotations, the description carries the full burden, and it does disclose meaningful traits: the task is deterministic, it switches accounts, takes screenshots, and verifies the reply on the post surface. However, it omits failure behavior, retry semantics, permission/authentication requirements, and what the tool returns.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

A single front-loaded sentence with no filler; the orchestration traits are packed efficiently. It is terse enough that it does not over-explain, though it is arguably too short to fully orient the agent.

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?

No annotations and no output schema, so the description must do more work for a multi-step side-effecting task. It covers the broad flow (switch account, reply, screenshot, verify) but says nothing about return values, error handling, or preconditions, leaving real gaps.

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 all four parameters are documented in the schema itself. The description only loosely gestures at the account parameter ("account switching") and adds nothing about url, text, or like semantics, so baseline 3 applies.

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

Purpose4/5

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

States a specific verb+resource ("reply-post task") and adds scope modifiers (deterministic, account switching, screenshots, post-surface verification). It distinguishes itself from the plain-action sibling x_reply_to_post by framing this as an orchestrated end-to-end task, though it never names that sibling explicitly.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

There is no explicit when-to-use / when-not-to-use guidance and no mention of the sibling alternatives (x_reply_to_post, x_engage_post_task, x_quote_post_task). The only guidance is implicit in the word "task," leaving the agent to infer that this bundles account switching and verification.

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