Join a public Slack channel as the connected teammate

summer_teammates_slack_channels_join

Join a public Slack channel as the connected teammate. Sends no message. A private or shared channel needs someone in it to /invite the teammate in Slack.

TDQS

A4.2/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

The description adds useful behavioral context beyond the annotations by clarifying that no message is sent and that private/shared channels cannot be joined this way. However, it does not explain behavior when the teammate is already a member, retry semantics despite the idempotency key, or what happens on failure.

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?

Three short sentences, front-loaded with the action and followed by the most important side-effect and constraint. Every sentence carries actionable information with no filler.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a non-idempotent mutation with no output schema, the description adequately covers what the tool does, that it sends no message, and an important channel-type limitation. It leaves some gaps around already-joined behavior and error handling, which keeps it from being fully complete.

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 only 50%, with company and teammate undocumented in the schema. The description reinforces that the channel must be public, but it does not explain the company or teammate UUID parameters, so it only partially compensates for the gap.

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 states a specific verb and resource (join a public Slack channel) and identifies the acting identity (the connected teammate). It also explicitly distinguishes this action from messaging with 'Sends no message,' which separates it from sibling tools like summer_slack_channels_posting_update.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

It clearly implies when to use the tool: joining a public channel as the connected teammate. It also names a key exclusion—private or shared channels require someone to /invite the teammate in Slack—but it does not explicitly direct agents to list or describe channels first.

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