Create CRUD Requests

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

No annotations exist, so the description carries the full burden. It discloses an important behavior: 'All five inherit the collection or folder auth block unless you pass auth.' However, it omits other behavioral details such as file system effects, overwrite behavior, or error conditions, leaving some ambiguity 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?

The description is two concise sentences, front-loaded with the primary action and a key behavioral note. Every word earns its place with no filler or redundancy.

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 tool is moderately complex (5 parameters, nested auth object, no output schema), and the description is too sparse to be complete. It does not explain how entityName is used, what baseUrl does, where the requests are written, or what the tool returns. For a batch generation tool, this is a significant gap.

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 only 40%, with descriptions for auth and collectionPath. The tool-level description adds minimal parameter clarification; it mentions 'auth' but does not explain entityName, baseUrl, or folder. With low schema coverage, the description should compensate, but it does not.

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's function: 'Generate a complete set of CRUD operations for an entity: list, get by id, create, update, delete.' It names the specific resource (an entity) and distinguishes itself from sibling tools like create_request (single request) by producing five operations at once.

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 implies the primary use case: scaffolding full CRUD for an entity. It is clear when to use this tool, but it does not explicitly mention alternatives or exclusions (e.g., 'use create_request for a single request'). This qualifies as clear context without explicit alternatives.

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