Create a project tag for customer or review organization.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
nameYesDisplay name for this tag.
colorNoHex color associated with this tag. Accepts
spriteNoFont Awesome icon CSS classes for this tag. Font Awesome icon: two CSS class names as used with Font Awesome Web Fonts / classic CSS (not SVG/React props). Format is a style prefix (`fab`, `fad`, `fak`, `fal`, `far`, `fas`, or `fat`), one ASCII space, then an icon slug starting with `fa-` (lowercase letters and digits, hyphen-separated words). Examples: `fab fa-google`, `fas fa-star`. On write, omit, send null, or whitespace-only to clear. Font Awesome 6 semantic pairs such as `fa-solid fa-star` are not accepted; use `fas fa-star` instead. Accepts at most 50 characters.
contextNoResource type this tag applies to.
has_ai_taggingNoWhether AI tagging is enabled for this tag.
ai_instructionsNoInstructions used by AI tagging for review tags.

C2.8/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

Annotations already disclose readOnlyHint=false, so the description does not contradict anything, but it adds no behavioral context: no uniqueness requirements for the tag name, no duplicate-handling behavior, and no side effects despite openWorldHint=true. With a write operation, an agent is left without information about what creation implies.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness3/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The body sentence is efficient and front-loaded, but it is prefixed by a 'Create Tag' line that merely repeats the tool name and title. Compact overall, but the redundant title line earns a deduction.

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

Completeness2/5

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

An output schema exists, so return-value documentation is not the description's job, but for a 6-parameter create tool the description omits when to choose it over updateTag/deleteTag, whether names must be unique, and what consequences creation has. It is a minimal purpose statement that is adequate only for the simplest cases.

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 the schema fully documents all six parameters, setting the baseline at 3. The description's phrase 'for customer or review organization' echoes the context parameter's enum but adds essentially nothing beyond what the schema already states.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

Names a specific action ('Create') and resource ('project tag') and narrows the scope to customer or review organization, which aligns with the context parameter's enum. It is distinguishable from the sibling updateTag/deleteTag/listTags by its verb, though it never explicitly differentiates itself from them.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

Provides no when-to-use guidance, no exclusions, and no mention of alternatives such as updateTag for modifying an existing tag. The only usage signal is the verb 'create', which is implicit rather than explicit instruction.

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