Cancel project transfer

cancel_project_transfer
DestructiveIdempotent

Stop the transfer of a project's repository before the project uses the new repository. The project keeps SHIP's copy, and SHIP writes nothing more to the person's repository. Only an owner of the workspace can do this.

A4.2/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already flag destructiveHint=true and idempotentHint=true, and the description adds real context beyond them: the project retains SHIP's copy and no further writes go to the person's repository, plus the owner-only permission requirement. It stops short of saying what happens on a repeat call or after the transfer has already completed.

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 its timing condition, then the side effects, then the permission gate. Nothing redundant.

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 one-parameter destructive mutation with no output schema, the description covers effect, permission, and timing. Minor gap: no statement of the resulting state or whether the person is notified.

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 coverage is 100% and projectId is documented as coming from list_projects, so the description adds no meaning beyond the schema for the single parameter. 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?

States a specific verb (stop/cancel) and resource (a project's repository transfer) plus the timing window 'before the project uses the new repository', which cleanly separates it from the forward-direction sibling transfer_project_repository.

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?

Gives a clear precondition for use ('before the project uses the new repository') and an authority constraint ('Only an owner of the workspace can do this'), but never names transfer_project_repository or get_project_transfer as the alternatives to check first.

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