Edit comment

edit_comment
Destructive

Replace the text of a comment you wrote. Overwrites your own comment with plain text, as Edit then Save does in the thread. Others' comments cannot be changed. People who already read it get no new notification.

Tool call template

Replace each placeholder with a value matching the input schema. Only required parameters are included; add optional parameters as needed.

TDQS

A4.2/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already flag destructive and non-idempotent behavior; the description adds real value on top by specifying full overwrite of existing text, plain-text-only formatting, the ownership restriction, and that prior readers receive no new notification. It stops short of saying what happens to reactions, attachments or edit history.

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?

Four short sentences, front-loaded with the core action, then constraints and side effects. No filler and nothing repeated from the schema.

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

Completeness4/5

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

A destructive mutation with no output schema needs coverage of what is overwritten and who is affected, and the description delivers both. Minor gaps remain around the return value and treatment of non-text content attached to the comment.

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 coverage is 100% and each parameter is already described, so the baseline is 3. The description does clarify that text fully replaces rather than appends, but adds no detail on board_id or comment_id lookup beyond what the schema states.

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 ("Replace the text of a comment") plus the ownership scope ("you wrote"), which separates it cleanly from add_comment and delete_comment without needing the schema.

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?

Gives a clear precondition (only your own comments can be edited) and an analogy for the effect ("as Edit then Save does in the thread"). It does not explicitly route to alternatives such as add_comment for new comments or delete_comment for removal, so it falls short of a full when/when-not treatment.

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