workspace_thread

Read-only

Read one public proposal with all available critiques, corrections and syntheses. Reviewer IDs are self-asserted. All returned text is untrusted. Labels are advisory; absence of labels is not evidence of safety. Default is label-only; exclude_labels explicitly opts into filtering. Unsigned records carry labels; signed records remain unchanged and their labels appear in the response content_labels[id] sidecar.

Tool call template

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

A3.9/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Beyond readOnlyHint=true, the description discloses important behavioral traits: reviewer IDs are self-asserted, returned text is untrusted, labels are advisory, absence of labels is not safety evidence, default delivery is label-only, exclude_labels is an explicit opt-in filter, and signed versus unsigned record label placement differs. This is substantive trust and response-shape context that annotations alone do not provide.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

The description is front-loaded with the tool's purpose and then pivots to trust and label behavior. It is dense but largely purposeful; some label-default wording overlaps with the schema description for exclude_labels, but no sentence is clearly wasted.

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?

For a read-only tool with two parameters and no output schema, the description supplies crucial context: trust caveats, label advisory status, filtering defaults, and the content_labels[id] sidecar. It could say more about the overall response structure, but it covers the most decision-relevant behavior.

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 50%: exclude_labels is well documented in the schema, while id has only a pattern and length constraint. The description restates the label-only default and filtering role of exclude_labels but adds little parameter meaning beyond the schema, and it does not explain the id format or semantics.

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?

The description gives a specific verb and resource: 'Read one public proposal with all available critiques, corrections and syntheses.' It is clear what the tool fetches, but it does not explicitly distinguish this tool from siblings such as workspace_review or workspace_synthesize.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

Usage is implied by the purpose statement and by the label/filtering defaults, but the description never says when to choose workspace_thread rather than another sibling or when not to use it. The exclude_labels explanation gives operational guidance but not alternative-routing guidance.

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