TDQS

A3.6/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare destructiveHint=true, openWorldHint=true, idempotentHint=false and readOnlyHint=false, so safety posture is covered. The description adds genuine value beyond that: the confirm=true gating requirement and the disclosure of side effects (sharing access, notifying people, incurring provider charges).

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?

Two short sentences, front-loaded with the core action, then the confirm requirement and side-effect warning. No wasted words, though the phrasing "for the requested mutation" is slightly abstract.

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 10-parameter mutation tool with nested objects and no output schema, the description covers the safety-critical confirm gate and side effects but omits return behavior and prerequisites. Combined with rich annotations and 90% schema coverage, this is adequate but not full.

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 90%, so the schema already documents nearly every parameter in detail (podcast_settings, custom_url, payload, etc.). The description only restates the confirm parameter's role, adding little beyond the structured data. 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 the specific verb+resource: "Creates a channel." This is unambiguous about the action. However, it does not distinguish itself from siblings like create_channel_episode, create_channel_collaborator, or update_channel, leaving the agent to infer scope from the name alone.

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?

Provides an implied usage condition by noting confirm=true is required for the mutation, which signals this is a write action needing explicit intent. But it gives no guidance on when to prefer this over sibling create tools or prerequisites (e.g., account setup).

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