fire_scene_as_selected

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries full burden. It hints at behavior (treating a non-selected scene as if it were selected) but does not disclose side effects on selection state or other behavioral traits. Minimal transparency.

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

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

The description is very short (one sentence), which makes it concise, but it sacrifices clarity on parameter semantics. It is adequately front-loaded but could benefit from a bit more detail without becoming verbose.

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

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

Given the tool's simplicity and the presence of an output schema, the description is too terse. It fails to clarify parameter usage or behavioral nuances, making it insufficient for complete understanding and correct invocation.

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

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

Schema description coverage is 0%, so the description must compensate. It provides no explanation for the only parameter 'scene_index' (e.g., indexing convention, schema, range), leaving the agent without essential information for invocation.

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

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

The description concisely states the action ('Fire a scene') and the specific behavior ('as if it were the selected scene'), clearly distinguishing it from sibling tools like 'fire_scene' and 'fire_selected_scene'.

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

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

The description implies usage for firing a specific scene without changing the current selection, but lacks explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, and does not mention any preconditions or context.

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