Set a property on a CharacterBody node in the open scene by specifying its node path, property key, and GDScript literal value.

Instructions

Set a property on a CharacterBody node in the open scene.

Behavior1/5

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It fails to mention side effects (e.g., modifying the open scene), prerequisites, error handling, reversibility, or changes saved only on project save. It only restates the basic action without any additional context.

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, clear sentence with no unnecessary words. It is front-loaded with the verb and resource, making it easy to parse. It earns its place despite being brief.

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?

The description is minimal and does not cover usage context, behavioral outcomes, or error scenarios. For a mutation tool with no annotations and no output schema, this is insufficient for an agent to understand the full impact or when to invoke it safely.

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?

Schema description coverage is 100% for all three parameters, each with clear descriptions and examples. The tool description adds no extra parameter semantics beyond what the schema already provides, so the baseline 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 clearly states the action ('Set') and the specific target ('CharacterBody node in the open scene'), which is distinct from sibling tools like editor_set_area_param or editor_set_camera_param. It provides a precise, unambiguous purpose.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines3/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The description implies usage for CharacterBody nodes but does not explicitly address when to use this tool versus alternatives like editor_set_node_properties or other param setters. There are no exclusions or alternative recommendations, leaving the agent to infer from the name and resource type.

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