Idempotent

Configure mandatory channels for a Discord Community server by setting rules and public updates channels after enabling Community in server settings.

Instructions

Configure the required channels for a Community server.

Sets the rules channel and public updates channel which are required for Community features. The server must already have Community enabled in Discord Server Settings.

Args:

  • guild_id (string): Discord server/guild ID

  • rules_channel_id (string): Channel for server rules (required)

  • public_updates_channel_id (string): Channel for Discord updates (required)

  • description (string, optional): Server description (max 120 chars)

  • preferred_locale (string, optional): Preferred language (e.g., 'en-US', 'de')

  • safety_alerts_channel_id (string, optional): Channel for safety alerts

Returns: Updated community settings

Behavior4/5

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

Description adds context beyond annotations: it specifies which channels are set, mentions the prerequisite, and states it returns updated settings. Annotations already indicate it's not destructive and is idempotent, so description supplements adequately.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Description is concise, front-loaded with the core action, and well-structured with a clear args list and return statement. Every sentence is necessary and efficient.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Given the availability of annotations and full schema, the description covers the tool's purpose, parameters, and prerequisites adequately. It could mention possible errors or side effects, but overall it is complete enough.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Since schema coverage is 100%, the description adds little new meaning beyond the schema's parameter descriptions. It lists parameters but does not provide additional semantic context.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states it configures required channels for a Community server, specifically the rules and public updates channels. It distinguishes from other guild editing tools by focusing on community setup.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines3/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Description mentions the prerequisite that Community must already be enabled, but does not provide guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like discord_edit_guild or when not to use it.

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