Apontar Horas em Tarefa Específica

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

The description reveals that end_time must be after start_time and that duration is auto-calculated. Annotations indicate destructiveHint=true (creation is destructive) and readOnlyHint=false, which align with the description. No contradictions. It adds value beyond annotations.

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 concise, well-structured with paragraphs and bullet points, and each sentence adds value. No redundant or irrelevant 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?

Given no output schema, the description thoroughly covers input behavior, mandatory parameters, constraints (time order), and includes a user confirmation directive. It is complete for a creation tool with good annotations.

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 description coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3. The description adds meaning by listing required parameters with format examples (AAAA-MM-DD, HH:MM) and referencing discovery tools for IDs. This exceeds schema documentation but does not fully explain optional parameters like 'manual_time'.

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 time entry linked to a specific task ('Cria um apontamento de horas vinculado a uma tarefa específica'), with a specific verb and resource. It also distinguishes from the sibling tool 'ekyte_create_time_entry_without_task' by emphasizing the task binding.

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 usage guidelines, including the equivalence to manual entry, required parameter steps, and a warning to confirm data with the user. However, it does not explicitly list when this tool should be avoided or compare to alternatives like the without-task variant.

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