import_discord_package

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

With no annotations, the description carries the full burden. It explains that all messages from all channels and DMs are imported and that both folder and ZIP formats are accepted, but it does not disclose potential side effects like processing time, size limits, or whether the import overwrites existing data.

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—four sentences that get straight to the point. It front-loads the purpose, then provides user guidance, and ends with parameter details. No unnecessary words.

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?

For a single-parameter tool with no output schema, the description covers the essentials: what it does, how to get the data, and the parameter format. It does not explicitly state the outcome (e.g., that data is added to memory), but sibling names like add_memory provide implicit context.

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 input schema has 0% description coverage, so the description must compensate. The Args section adds meaning by stating that 'package_path' can be a path to an extracted folder or a ZIP file, clarifying the acceptable formats beyond the schema's minimalist title.

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 'Import' and the resource 'Discord Data Package (GDPR export)', and distinguishes it from sibling tools like import_csv_file or import_messenger by specifying its Discord-specific origin.

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?

It provides context on how to obtain the data (Discord Settings > Privacy & Safety > Request All of My Data) and notes that both extracted folders and ZIP files are supported. However, it does not explicitly state when to use this tool over alternatives or when not to use it.

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