Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and destructiveHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds valuable context beyond that: revisions are 'private' and that 'deleting the note purges this history.' This is genuinely useful behavioral disclosure. The 'up to 20' phrasing is a minor inconsistency with the schema's maximum limit, but not a contradiction 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.
