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

Annotations already declare destructiveHint=true, idempotentHint=true and readOnlyHint=false, so the safety profile is covered structurally. The description adds the OAuth scope requirement, which annotations do not carry and which the agent must satisfy before calling. It does not say whether contained documents are cascaded or whether the delete is soft vs hard.

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?

Two short sentences, zero filler, with the operation front-loaded and the permission requirement second. Nothing is padded or redundant.

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?

For a one-parameter destructive delete whose annotations already flag destructiveness and idempotency, the description supplies the missing behavioral piece (required scope). It is close to complete, losing a point only for not mentioning side effects on related documents or error behavior for a nonexistent ID.

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?

Schema description coverage is 100% and there is a single UUID parameter already documented as 'Template ID'. The description's 'by ID' adds no format or constraint detail beyond the schema, so the baseline 3 applies.

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?

States a specific verb (Delete) and resource (project document folder template) plus the lookup key (by ID), which cleanly separates it from the get_/list_/update_ siblings of the same noun. No explicit sibling routing is offered, but the verb alone makes the intent unambiguous.

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?

Provides one actionable prerequisite (path not included) – the required project_document_folder_templates:write scope – but says nothing about when to choose this over update_project_document_folder_template or delete_project_document, nor any caution about deletion consequences.

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