move_spark_to_vault

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It does not disclose whether this is a destructive move (removing from Spark), what side effects occur, or any permissions required. The term 'promote' suggests non-destructive, but 'move' in the name implies otherwise, leaving ambiguity.

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 a single, front-loaded sentence with no waste. Every word contributes to understanding the tool's purpose.

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 is relatively simple, but without annotations or an output schema, the description should explain more. It omits what happens to the original Spark bookmark, whether the operation is reversible, and what the return value is. This leaves significant gaps for an agent to invoke it confidently.

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%, with both 'id' and 'vault_category' having meaningful descriptions. The description adds no parameter details, but per rubric the baseline is 3 when schema covers all parameters.

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 ('promote'), the resource ('Spark bookmark'), and the destination ('permanent Vault storage'). It effectively distinguishes from sibling tools like move_spark_to_ash by specifying the target location.

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 intended usage is implied by the action—promoting a bookmark to permanent storage—but there is no explicit guidance on when to use this over alternative move tools (e.g., move_spark_to_ash) or any exclusions. The context is clear but not elaborated.

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