discord_create_webhook

Create a webhook on a Discord channel and retrieve its ID and token for sending messages. Requires Manage Webhooks permission.

Instructions

Create a webhook on a channel and return its ID and token. SECURITY: the returned token grants anyone the ability to post as this webhook without authentication — treat it as a secret. Requires the Manage Webhooks permission. Use the returned id+token with discord_send_webhook_message.

Behavior5/5

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

The description adds critical behavioral context beyond annotations: the security warning about the token being secret and granting posting ability, and the permission requirement. No contradiction with annotations.

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?

Three concise sentences front-load the core purpose, then add security and permission context. No redundant words.

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

Completeness5/5

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

Given the tool's simplicity, the description covers everything needed: purpose, security, permission, and follow-up action. No output schema exists, but the description states what is returned.

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?

Schema coverage is 100%, so all parameters are already described in the schema. The description does not add extra parameter details, meeting the baseline expectation.

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 'Create a webhook on a channel and return its ID and token,' using a specific verb and resource. It distinguishes from siblings like discord_delete_webhook by noting the follow-up use with discord_send_webhook_message.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

The description mentions the required permission ('Requires the Manage Webhooks permission') and hints at usage context by directing to discord_send_webhook_message. It does not explicitly exclude situations, but the context is clear enough.

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