Control remote monitor

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

Annotations already indicate mutating (readOnlyHint=false) but non-destructive (destructiveHint=false). The description adds the context that the monitor is 'bounded' and 'local', which implies limited buffer and no game-side effects. But it does not clarify what 'clear' discards, whether 'stop' preserves data, or what 'status'/inspect returns, leaving behavioral gaps beyond annotations.

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 a single, compact sentence that front-loads the verbs and clearly states the resource. Every word is informative, with no filler or redundancy. It is appropriately sized for a simple control tool.

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?

For a tool with no output schema, the description should clarify what 'inspect' returns, but it doesn't. The actions are simple, and annotations/schema cover safety and parameters reasonably, but the missing return value details and lack of per-action behavior leave the description incomplete for fully informed use. However, given the low complexity, it remains minimally viable.

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 coverage is 50%: clientId has a description, but action only has enum values. The description lists 'start, stop, clear, or inspect', which maps to the enum but uses 'inspect' instead of the schema's 'status', potentially causing ambiguity. It doesn't explain the clientId parameter or the action semantics beyond the enumeration, adding only partial meaning.

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 uses specific verbs ('Start, stop, clear, or inspect') and names the resource ('bounded local monitor for FireServer and InvokeServer calls'). This clearly distinguishes it from sibling tools like get_remote_events or replay_remote_event, which focus on listing or replaying events rather than controlling a local monitor.

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: use this tool when you need to control a local monitor for FireServer/InvokeServer calls. However, it provides no explicit 'when to use' versus alternatives, no exclusions, and no mention of scenarios where other remote-related tools would be more appropriate.

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