mirlo_complete_task

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries full responsibility for behavioral disclosure. It merely states the action but does not explain if the completion is reversible, triggers side effects (e.g., notifications, status changes), or requires specific permissions. This lack of detail leaves the agent unaware of consequences.

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 short sentence with no wasted words, but it is also under-informative. It is concise but sacrifices necessary detail for brevity, earning a neutral score.

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 the tool's simplicity (one parameter, no output schema), the description lacks critical contextual information such as the effect on the task record, any preconditions, or error conditions. The absence of behavioral transparency makes it incomplete for reliable agent usage.

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 the parameter 'task_id' described as 'Task UUID' in the schema. The description adds no additional meaning beyond the schema, so it meets the baseline but does not improve understanding of the parameter's usage or format.

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 'Mark a task as completed' clearly states the action (mark/completed) and the resource (task), which distinguishes it from sibling tools like mirlo_create_task (create) and mirlo_list_tasks (list). The verb+resource combination is specific and unambiguous.

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 no guidance on when to use this tool vs. alternatives, such as updating a task's status or deleting it. No context about prerequisites, typical usage scenarios, or scenarios where this tool should be avoided is given.

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