nexo_support_ticket_close

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

No annotations are provided, so the description must disclose behavioral traits. It indicates a state-changing (closing) action but fails to mention potential side effects, required permissions, irreversibility, or error conditions that an agent would need to know.

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 sentence with no redundant information, efficiently conveying the action and precondition. Every word earns its place.

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 lack of annotations, output schema, and parameter descriptions, the tool description is insufficient. It omits return values, error handling, and prerequisites beyond evidence recording, leaving significant gaps for an agent to safely use the tool.

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?

The input schema has 0% description coverage, and the main description does not mention the 'ticket_id' parameter or its format. The agent receives no guidance on what value to provide or how to obtain it, severely hindering correct 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 clearly states the action ('close'), the resource ('real NEXO support ticket'), and a precondition ('after evidence has been recorded'), effectively distinguishing it from sibling tools like create, read, reopen, etc.

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 provides explicit context by specifying the precondition 'after evidence has been recorded', which guides when to use the tool. However, it does not explicitly state when not to use it or mention alternatives like reopening.

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