detach_page_from_work_item

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

The description adds value by clarifying that 'work_item_page_id' is the link ID, not the page ID. However, it does not discuss side effects, permissions, or return behavior beyond the removal action. Annotations already indicate destructive and idempotent, so the description adds moderate contextual information.

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?

The description is extremely concise: one sentence for the action followed by a clean bullet list of three arguments. Every sentence is purposeful and front-loaded, with no extraneous information.

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?

While the action and parameters are described, the description is incomplete regarding the output/return behavior, which is important since there is no output schema provided. It does not specify what happens on success (e.g., returns a boolean or void) or error conditions.

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?

With 0% schema description coverage, the description compensates well by explaining each parameter's role (e.g., 'UUID of project', 'UUID of the work item page link (not the page ID)'). This adds essential meaning beyond the bare schema, though format details are omitted.

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 action ('Remove a page link from a work item') and distinguishes it from related siblings like 'attach_page_to_work_item' and 'list_work_item_pages'. It specifies the exact resource and operation, making the purpose unambiguous.

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 does not provide guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, nor does it mention prerequisites (e.g., needing the link ID from list_work_item_pages). No explicit 'when to use' or 'when not to use' context is given.

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