C2.3/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden of explaining behavioral traits, but it only restates that a clip moves to a track. It does not disclose side effects, selection requirements, what happens when no clip is selected, whether the move is destructive, or how the destination track is determined.

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

Conciseness2/5

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

The description is short but wastes the little space it uses on the filler phrase 'Premiere Pro expanded operation,' which adds no value. A direct phrasing such as 'Move the selected clip to the specified track' would be more useful and less redundant.

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

Completeness2/5

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

Given the absence of annotations, output schema, and parameter documentation, the description is far too thin for reliable invocation. It omits how the target track is specified, what state the agent must ensure beforehand, and what result or error to expect.

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

Parameters4/5

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

The tool has zero parameters, so the baseline is 4; there is no parameter schema to supplement. The description does not clarify implicit inputs such as the selected clip or target track, but because no parameters are declared, this is not a major gap for this dimension.

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

Purpose2/5

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

The description essentially restates the tool name ('move clip to track') with no additional specification of which clip, which track, or how the operation is 'expanded.' It adds the vague qualifier 'Premiere Pro expanded operation' but does not distinguish this from siblings like move_clip or add_to_timeline.

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 guidance about when to use this tool instead of alternatives such as move_clip, add_to_timeline, or remove_from_timeline. It does not state prerequisites like having a clip selected or a target track active, nor does it mention exclusions or fallback tools.

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