origin_bridge_shutdown

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

Description discloses the default behavior (releasing connection without closing Origin) and the option to force close. It does not mention side effects on pending tasks or other state, but given no annotations, the description provides some 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?

Description is two sentences, front-loaded with the primary purpose. No unnecessary words; every sentence adds value.

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?

With output schema present, return values are not needed. However, description does not explain prerequisites (e.g., bridge running) or usage of multiple parameters. It is incomplete for guiding parameter setup but sufficient for basic shutdown.

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 has 0% description coverage for 6 parameters. Description only explains the 'close_origin' parameter. Other parameters (host, port, token, timeout, release_origin) are not described, leaving the agent to rely on schema titles which are self-explanatory but lack detail.

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?

Description clearly states the tool asks the Origin GUI bridge to stop serving requests, with a specific verb and resource. It distinguishes from sibling tools that handle task management or other operations.

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?

Description explains two modes: default release of connection vs. force-close Origin. It does not explicitly say when to use this tool versus alternatives, but the context of siblings makes it clear this is the only shutdown tool.

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