Changes observed during successful MCP inspections.
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare this is a non-destructive, non-idempotent, closed-world mutation, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds only that the invitation must be addressed to the caller's email; it says nothing about side effects (membership creation), failure modes for expired or already-used invites, or that a second call will not succeed.
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?
One sentence with no filler, and the key scoping constraint (your email) is front-loaded. Nothing redundant.
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?
A one-parameter tool with no output schema needs little, but the description omits what accepting actually does (e.g., joins a workspace/plan) and the error conditions an agent might need to handle. Minimum viable rather than complete.
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 coverage is 100% for the single invitationId parameter, so the schema carries the documentation burden. The description adds no format, source, or lookup guidance beyond the schema.
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?
States a specific verb (accept) and resource (invitation), which clearly separates it from list_invites, revoke_invite and invite_member. It stops short of explicitly naming those siblings, so sibling differentiation is implicit rather than spelled out.
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?
"addressed to your email" implies the caller must be the invitee, which is a useful scoping hint. There is no explicit when-to-use vs. alternatives or when-not (e.g., expired/revoked invites, or use revoke_invite to decline).
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
