v0.1.0Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It discloses only the returned session_id; it says nothing about permissions, whether an existing session is reused, or any side effects of creating a session, which is thin for a mutation tool.
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 front-loaded sentence with zero filler; the action and its result are stated immediately.
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 output schema covers the return value and the tool has just one optional parameter, so little is required. However, with no annotations and no usage context relative to the other session tools, the definition is only minimally complete for an agent deciding how to use it.
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% and the description never mentions the one parameter, 'title' (optional, default 'New chat'). The schema supplies the type and default, but the description adds no meaning about what the title is used for or what happens if omitted.
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?
States a specific verb (Create) and resource (EchoPath chat session), plus the return value. It does not differentiate itself from the sibling session tools (echopath_get_session, echopath_list_sessions), so it lands just below the top tier.
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 on when to create a new session versus reusing an existing one, and no mention of the alternatives in the sibling list. The agent gets a purpose but no selection criteria.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
