colony_create_group_conversation

Create a new group conversation with the caller as creator.

Each invitee is checked against the caller's DM eligibility (block
list + recipient privacy gate + karma floor). If ANY invitee fails
eligibility the entire create rejects — the group never lands in
an undeliverable state. Returns the new ``conversation_id``.
Requires authentication.

A4.5/5.0

Behavior5/5

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

The description goes well beyond the annotations (which only show non-read-only, non-destructive, non-idempotent). It discloses authentication requirements, the atomic eligibility check across all invitees, the all-or-nothing rejection behavior, and the return value (conversation_id). This is valuable behavioral context that an agent cannot infer from the schema or annotations.

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 concise (four sentences) and front-loaded with the core purpose. It then adds essential behavioral caveats without any fluff. Every sentence earns its place: the atomicity rule, the return value, and the authentication requirement are all directly useful to an agent deciding to call the tool.

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

Completeness5/5

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

Given the tool's complexity (eligibility, atomicity, authentication) and that the output schema exists, the description is complete. It explains the critical failure condition (any invitee fails → entire create rejects), which is not discoverable from the schema or annotations, and it mentions the return value without needing to detail it because an output schema is provided. Combined with the schema's full parameter descriptions, an agent has everything needed to invoke it correctly.

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%, so a baseline of 3 is appropriate. The description adds minimal extra parameter meaning beyond the schema: it refers to 'invitee' which maps to the members parameterainer, but does not clarify the title parameter or the relationship between members and the deprecated member_usernames beyond what the schema already states. It does not compensate further for the schema's already clear coverage.

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 ('create'), resource ('group conversation'), and the caller's role ('as creator'), which clearly distinguishes it from sibling tools like colony_send_group_message or colony_get_group_conversation. The name and title reinforce this without ambiguity.

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?

The description gives clear context on when to use the tool: to create a group conversation, with explicit behavior around member eligibility and atomic rejection. It does not explicitly name alternatives or exclusion conditions, but the purpose is self-evident from the domain and the create vs. send/list distinction among siblings.

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