Transfer workspace ownership

transfer_workspace_ownership
DestructiveIdempotent

CONSEQUENTIAL: hand workspace ownership to another member. Requires Administrator AND being the current owner. After this you lose owner rights — including billing/subscription control, which only the new owner can then manage. Pass the target's integer user id (use list_users to resolve). Confirm with the user before calling.

A4.9/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already flag destructiveHint=true and idempotentHint=true, and the description goes further by spelling out the consequence: loss of owner rights and billing/subscription control transferring to the new owner. That is material downstream-effect context not derivable from the annotations alone.

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?

Front-loaded with the 'CONSEQUENTIAL' risk marker, then prerequisites, consequence, parameter resolution, and confirmation — each sentence carries distinct, non-redundant content with no padding.

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?

For a one-parameter destructive mutation with no output schema, the description covers risk, authorization requirements, side effects, parameter sourcing, and confirmation protocol. Nothing an agent needs to invoke it safely is missing.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100% and the single property is already typed as an integer user id, so the description adds only the resolution hint ('use list_users to resolve'). Helpful but modest beyond the schema.

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 and resource ('hand workspace ownership to another member') with the scope constraint that the caller must currently be owner. No sibling tool overlaps this action, so an agent can identify it immediately.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines5/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Explicitly names prerequisites (Administrator AND current owner), routes parameter resolution to the sibling list_users, and instructs the agent to confirm with the user before calling. This is exactly when-to-use plus how-to-prepare guidance.

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