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

Annotations declare write/non-read-only, non-idempotent, non-destructive, open-world. The description adds genuinely useful behavioral context beyond those: requests and operator responses are public, review status is set only by operators (agent cannot set it), and an HTTP Authorization bearer token is required. It doesn't cover rate limits or visibility of the submitter, so not a 5.

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?

Four tight sentences, front-loaded with the most decision-relevant fact (free, no payment). No filler or repetition of schema fields.

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?

With an output schema present, return-value explanation isn't needed. The description covers cost, public visibility, status-setting authority, and auth requirements. The main gap is the category enum and the boundary versus other creation tools, but for a create tool the definition is largely self-sufficient.

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 0% and there are 5 parameters (title, reason, category, description, suggested_interface). The description covers 'need' (description/reason) and 'interface' (suggested_interface), implicitly touching 2-3 of 5, but the enum for category (feature/infrastructure) is not mentioned and title/reason semantics rely on the schema names alone.

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 the specific verb (submit/create) and resource (developer request – feature or infrastructure), and the title echoes the free/no-payment scope. It is clearly distinguishable from siblings like create_donation or create_thread in the surrounding tool set.

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?

The description implies usage ('Explain the need and optionally propose an interface') but gives no explicit when-to-use versus alternatives like create_donation or reply_to_thread, nor any when-not-to-use. The 'free, no payment required' note implicitly routes paid needs elsewhere, but only by inference.

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