drop_all

Spike reverb and delay send levels on specified tracks, then mute all to create dramatic transitions.

Instructions

Execute a "drop" — spike send levels for a reverb/delay wash tail, then mute all specified tracks. A common production technique for creating dramatic transitions.

Parameters:

  • track_indices: List of track indices to drop (0-based)

  • reverb_send_level: Reverb send level to spike to (default 0.95)

  • delay_send_level: Delay send level to spike to (default 0.80)

Behavior3/5

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

With no annotations, the description must carry full burden. It explains the spike and mute actions but does not clarify if send levels reset or if the mute is permanent. This is adequate but not fully transparent.

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 two short sentences plus a concise parameter list. All information is front-loaded and no extraneous words, making it efficient for an agent to parse.

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

Completeness4/5

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

Given the tool's complexity and the presence of an output schema, the description adequately covers the operation. It could mention prerequisites or result behavior, but overall is complete enough.

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 description lists all three parameters with clear explanations and default values, compensating for the 0% schema description coverage. It adds meaning beyond the schema's titles.

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 explicitly states the tool executes a 'drop' by spiking reverb/delay sends and muting tracks, which is a specific action. It clearly distinguishes from siblings like 'set_track_mute' or 'set_track_send' by being a composite operation.

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 mentions it's for creating dramatic transitions, implying usage context. However, it does not explicitly state when not to use it or suggest alternatives, leaving some ambiguity for an AI agent.

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