Memory Autopilot Project Context

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It mentions scheduling Code Memory refresh, including start files, stale cautions, and verification hints, but does not detail side effects or prerequisites. The output formats are listed, but behavioral traits like 'compact' are vague.

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?

Two sentences, no wasted words. The description is front-loaded with the primary purpose and includes necessary usage context efficiently.

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?

All parameters are optional with thorough schema descriptions. The description explains the tool's output (compact brief with memories, cautions, hints) and specifies usage context. No output schema, but the description covers what the agent needs.

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%, so the baseline is 3. The description does not add meaning beyond the schema for any parameter; it only mentions 'compact' generally.

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 the tool builds a compact Memory Autopilot brief for the current coding task. It specifies the action (build), resource (brief), and scope (current task), differentiating it from siblings like memorix_session_context and memorix_graph_context.

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 explicitly states when to use the tool: 'at the start of a new coding turn or after switching tasks.' While it does not exclude other contexts or mention alternatives, the usage context is clear.

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