update_mcp_integration_workspaces

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

The description explains idempotency ('re-running with enabled flipped undoes a change') and immediate application for all users, adding value beyond annotations (idempotentHint: true). It does not mention auth or rate limits but is sufficient.

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 three sentences, front-loaded with the purpose, and includes all essential information without filler. 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?

The tool has an output schema (though not shown), so return values are covered. The description covers purpose, parameters, behavior, and prerequisites. It could mention error handling but is largely 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?

Schema coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The description adds context on sourcing IDs but does not significantly expand on the schema's descriptions of 'id' and 'workspaces'.

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 'Grant or revoke workspace access to an MCP integration in bulk,' specifying the verb and resource. It distinguishes from sibling tools like list_mcp_integration_workspaces by detailing how to source IDs and the bulk nature.

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 explicit context for when to use this tool (bulk granting/revoking) and gives sourcing guidance from related tools (list_mcp_integrations, list_workspaces, list_mcp_integration_workspaces). It lacks explicit when-not-to-use or alternatives but is clear enough.

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