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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It only says "update CRM task," revealing nothing about whether this is a partial or full update, what fields can be changed, response behavior, permissions, side effects, or error conditions.

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?

The description is extremely short, but this is under-specification rather than effective conciseness. It contains a single sentence that conveys no information beyond the tool's name and fails to include anything about fields, parameters, or behavior.

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?

With 5 parameters, no annotations, no output schema, and a large sibling set, the description is far too minimal to be complete. It does not explain update semantics, required identifiers, return values, or how this differs from the platform-level CRM task update sibling.

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%, so every parameter has at least a minimal description in the input schema. The tool description adds no parameter-level meaning, but the high coverage sets a baseline of 3 even though the schema descriptions themselves are quite terse.

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?

The description "update CRM task." simply restates the tool name (crm_tasks_update) in natural language, so it is essentially tautological. It identifies the action and resource but adds no scope, field-level detail, or distinction from the similar sibling commsharbor_platform_crm_tasks_update.

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?

There is no guidance about when to use this tool versus alternatives such as commsharbor_crm_tasks_create, commsharbor_crm_tasks_get, or commsharbor_platform_crm_tasks_update. The description provides no context, prerequisites, or conditions for use.

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