inject_para_ids

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

With no annotations provided, the description partially discloses behavior: it assigns paraIds and returns count. It mentions 'Run once' hinting at idempotency but does not detail side effects, required document state, or whether saving is needed.

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 succinct sentences front-load the action and outcome with no extraneous words. Every sentence adds value.

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?

Given the tool's simplicity and existence of an output schema, the description covers the return count but lacks parameter explanation and some behavioral context. It is adequate but not complete.

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?

The sole parameter 'document_handle' is not described in the schema (0% coverage) and is not mentioned in the description. The agent must guess its meaning and usage, which is inadequate.

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 verb 'Assign' and the resource 'w14:paraId to every paragraph missing one', and explains why ('so paraId-based tools work'). It effectively distinguishes itself from sibling tools like 'validate_paraids' by focusing on injection.

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 provides clear usage guidance: 'Run once on templates created without paraIds.' It implies a one-time operation but does not explicitly exclude alternative scenarios or mention siblings that might also assign paraIds.

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