Apply confirmed template-bundle import as Working

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

Annotations already indicate non-read-only and non-destructive with idempotent hint. The description adds that it only applies as Working Revision, not publish, and mentions reverification, which provides context beyond the annotations. No contradictions with 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 core purpose. It avoids redundancy and wasted words, though it could be slightly more descriptive without losing efficiency.

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 tool's domain (template bundle import) and the presence of many sibling tools, the description is under-specified. It lacks parameter explanations, prerequisites, and a clear connection to the planning step. It does not clarify the expected outcome or failure modes. The note about local review and publish is helpful but insufficient.

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 schema has zero description coverage, and the description does not explain planDigest or operationId at all. The names are somewhat self-explanatory but the description adds no meaning about format, purpose, or relationship to the bundle import.

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 applies a template-bundle import as a Working Revision, with reverification. It aligns with the name and title, and distinguishes from sibling apply tools by specifying it's for template bundle imports. However, it does not explicitly mention the action 'apply' as a verb, though it's implied.

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 in a workflow by mentioning 'Reverify the exact bundle' and 'apply only the planned Working Revision', suggesting it follows planning. It also states 'Local review and publish remain mandatory,' which clarifies what does not happen. But it does not explicitly name the plan counterpart or contrast with alternatives like apply_working_revision.

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