BugHerd MCP Server

bugherd_list_taskboard_tasks

List all active taskboard tasks for a BugHerd project, filtering out archived tasks and feedback. Essential for tracking current project work.

Instructions

List taskboard tasks (not feedback, not archived) for a project.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
project_idYesThe BugHerd project ID
pageNoPage number for pagination
Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries full burden. It only discloses the scope (taskboard tasks, not feedback, not archived) but does not mention pagination behavior, default page size, rate limits, or any other behavioral traits. For a list tool, this is insufficient.

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 a single sentence, front-loaded with the action, and contains no unnecessary words. Every word earns its place.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness3/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

While the tool is simple with only two parameters, the description lacks details about the return format, pagination default or limits, and ordering. Given no output schema, the description should provide more context for an agent to use it effectively.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100% with basic descriptions for both parameters. The tool description adds meaningful context by clarifying that the project_id refers to a BugHerd project and that the result is limited to taskboard tasks, which adds value beyond the schema's parameter descriptions.

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 uses a specific verb ('List') and resource ('taskboard tasks'), and explicitly excludes feedback and archived tasks. This clearly distinguishes it from siblings like bugherd_list_tasks, bugherd_list_archived_tasks, and bugherd_list_feedback_tasks.

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?

The description states what the tool does but provides no guidance on when to use it over the many similar list tools among siblings. It does not mention when not to use it or any prerequisites.

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