Create Project From Songspec

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

There are no annotations, so the description carries the full burden. It only states that a ProjectPlan is built and may include an arrangement, with no disclosure of side effects, permissions, reversibility, or whether it is a persistent creation. 'Build' implies mutation but little else.

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?

A single sentence that front-loads the core action and the optional flag, with no filler or redundancy. It is concise and easy to scan, though it sacrifices informativeness for brevity.

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?

For a tool with a nested input object and an output schema, the description lacks essential context: what a songspec is, what 'arrangement' means in this domain, and how this tool relates to similar siblings like create_ableton_plan. An agent would not have enough information to invoke it correctly with confidence.

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 0%, so the description must explain parameters. It adds some meaning to include_arrangement ('optionally including its arrangement') but provides no explanation of songspec, which is the only required parameter, leaving its semantics to inference from the tool name.

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 states a specific verb ('Build') and resource ('ProjectPlan') and mentions the optional arrangement. It differentiates from sibling create_ableton_plan by the type of plan produced, though it relies on the tool name to convey the 'from songspec' input.

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?

No guidance is given about when to use this tool versus alternatives. The sibling list includes create_ableton_plan, generate_songspec, and orchestrate_song, but the description does not mention any of them or provide conditions for selection.

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