origin_plot_box

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries full burden. It mentions 'import table data' but does not disclose side effects like graph creation, modification, or data source requirements. Minimal beyond the obvious.

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 short sentence, which is concise. However, given the tool's complexity (20 parameters), it is somewhat under-specified and could benefit from additional context without being 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?

With 20 parameters, no annotations, and many sibling tools, the description is insufficiently complete. It lacks details on data sourcing, output behavior, and parameter usage, though output schema exists but is not shown.

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%, meaning no parameter explanations. The description adds no meaning to the 20 parameters; it only states the high-level purpose. The agent receives no help understanding parameter roles.

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 tool imports table data and creates a box plot, distinguishing it from other plot types like histograms or line plots. However, it could be more specific about the data source (e.g., file vs. existing worksheet).

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?

No guidance on when to use this tool over alternatives. There are many sibling plot tools (e.g., origin_plot_histogram, origin_plot_line), but the description does not provide selection criteria or prerequisites.

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