A4/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already indicate readOnlyHint=false and destructiveHint=false, so the description's mention of 'Create' aligns but adds no new behavioral insights. The idempotentHint=true is noted but not elaborated. The description adds value by mentioning the return format but does not address potential side effects or error conditions.

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?

The description is two sentences long, front-loads the core action, and contains no extraneous information. Every word serves a purpose.

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?

The description is brief but sufficient for a creation tool, especially given that an output schema exists (as per context signals). It covers the essential input (title, content, location) and output (page ID, URL). Minor gaps like error handling or idempotency are not critical for this tool type.

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%, so baseline is 3. The description mentions 'title and content' and 'parent page ID or space key', which slightly augments the schema's parameter descriptions but does not add significant new meaning beyond what the schema provides.

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?

The description explicitly states 'Create a new Confluence page with title and content', using a specific verb and resource. It also mentions return values ('Returns page ID and URL') and distinguishes from sibling tools like confluence_get_page and confluence_list_pages.

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?

The description provides clear context by saying 'Specify parent page ID or space key (e.g., "ENG")', which guides the user on required identifiers. However, it does not explicitly state when not to use this tool versus alternatives like searching or listing pages.

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