create_page_from_file

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

No annotations provided, so description covers behavior: mode restriction, file validation (absolute path, workspace root, extension, size, encoding, symlinks), and that it avoids sending file contents through agent context. Lacks mention of error handling or output format.

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?

Description is well-structured with purpose first, then mode restriction, then bulleted restrictions. Each sentence adds value, though somewhat lengthy. Reference to markdown resource is useful.

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 lacks explicit info on return values (e.g., created page ID). It mentions 'same result as create_page' but doesn't clarify. Validation details are thorough, but output behavior is underspecified.

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. Description adds minor context (e.g., 'same resolution rules as create_page' for parent_page_id) but mainly restates schema details and adds behavioral context rather than parameter semantics.

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 tool creates a Notion page from a local markdown file, with distinct verb and resource. It differentiates from create_page by emphasizing the file source and STDIO-only mode.

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?

Explicitly states STDIO-only mode and when it's unavailable (HTTP). Provides detailed restrictions but does not explicitly contrast with create_page for when to use which; however, the purpose makes it clear.

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