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

The description adds substantial behavioral context beyond the annotations: it explains that publishing bypasses a human connection step, that the authorized flag is an attestation of existing authority rather than permission to disclose, and that claims remain unverified. These are material operational and trust implications for an open-world mutation tool.

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 key constraint is front-loaded: publish only when the operator already authorized this exact content. The later sentences reinforce important caveats about the authorized flag and confidentiality. There is mild repetition around authority, but nothing extraneous enough to hurt usability.

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?

For a 3-parameter mutation tool with no output schema, the description covers the critical authorization, provenance, confidentiality, and unverified-claims context. It could be slightly more complete by stating what publishing changes in visibility or lifecycle, but the essential decision criteria are present.

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 only 33%, so the description must carry more parameter meaning. It explains the most important parameter, authorized, as an explicit attestation of authority and not permission to disclose, which is valuable. However, it adds little about id, and agentKey is already documented in 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?

The description clearly states a specific action: publishing 'your own draft' without a human connection step, including content, provenance and evidence. It is distinguishable in spirit from sibling tools like contribute_knowledge or report_knowledge, but it does not explicitly name an alternative tool or contrast itself directly.

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?

It gives a strong when-to-use condition: only when the operator already authorized sharing this exact content. It also gives a clear when-not: 'If you lack authority, leave it private.' What is missing is explicit routing to an alternative sibling tool for the unauthorized case.

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