docs_create_doc

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

With no annotations, the description reveals the tool creates a doc, writes content, and returns a URL. It does not mention ownership implications, rate limits, or any destructive behavior, but for a creation tool the behavioral profile is adequately outlined.

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 with no wasted words. It covers purpose, parameters, and return value efficiently. 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 no schema descriptions and no annotations, the description is fairly complete for a creation tool. It explains the action, key parameters, and return. Could mention permissions or limitations, but overall sufficient.

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 0%, so the description must compensate. It explains 'title' is the document title and 'blocks' is a JSON array of content blocks referencing docs_add_tab format. This adds meaning, though the exact format of blocks is not fully specified.

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 it creates a new Google Doc and writes formatted content into its default tab. It also references the sibling tool docs_add_tab for the blocks format, distinguishing its role as a creation tool.

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 implies creation vs. adding to an existing doc, but does not explicitly state when to use this tool over alternatives like docs_add_tab or other creation methods. No when-not or exclusion criteria are given.

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