Behavior2/5

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

With no annotations provided, the description must fully disclose behavioral traits. It only states 'Create a new load balancer' and gives no information about side effects, permissions, costs, return values, or default behavior beyond what the schema already shows. It does not describe what happens to existing settings or whether the operation is reversible.

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 a single, concise imperative sentence with no redundant words. It is front-loaded and clear, making it easy for an agent to quickly understand the tool's purpose.

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?

Despite a comprehensive schema, the description is extremely brief. There is no output schema and no annotations, so the description should compensate by explaining what the creation entails, expected response, or any caveats. It fails to provide enough context for a complex operation with 13 parameters, leaving the agent with limited understanding of the tool's full behavior.

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

Parameters3/5

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

The input schema has 100% coverage with descriptive parameter details (e.g., 'algo' enum, default values, health check intervals). The description adds no additional parameter semantics beyond the schema, so baseline score of 3 applies.

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 'Create a new load balancer' uses a clear verb (create) and specific resource (load balancer), effectively distinguishing it from sibling tools such as timeweb_list_balancers, timeweb_get_balancer, timeweb_update_balancer, and timeweb_delete_balancer. It clearly states the tool's function.

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?

No usage guidance is provided. The description does not explain when to use this tool versus alternatives, nor does it mention prerequisites, exclusions, or relationships to other balancer-related operations. The only implied context is that it creates a new resource.

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