github_default_review_required_teams

Read-onlyIdempotent

Fetch the default teams that must review pull requests in a GitHub repository. Use this to verify branch protection settings and mandatory approvals.

Instructions

Github connector operation default_review_required_teams (platform tool github.default_review_required_teams).

Routes only through the exact project/account governed connector authority.

Args: arguments: JSON string of arguments for the connector operation. project_id: Authenticated Project UUID. project_ref: Exact project correlation reference. connector_account_ref: Project-bound connector account alias. idempotency_key: Stable business-action identity. effect: Required and must be read; Spring verifies it. approval_ref: Approved platform task UUID when resuming a write.

TDQS

D1.9/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, and destructiveHint=false, so the safety profile is clear. The description adds only that the effect must be 'read' and that routing is restricted to the governed connector authority; it does not explain what the operation reads, what it returns, or what side effects would accompany a write. The note about 'approval_ref ... when resuming a write' is confusing for a read-only tool but does not directly contradict the annotations.

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

Conciseness3/5

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

The bulleted Args section is compact and scannable, but the first two sentences are largely redundant and occupy the front-loaded position where a purpose statement should be. The routing and parameter lines earn their place; the opener does not.

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

Completeness1/5

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

The description fails to provide the most essential context: what domain object or setting the tool operates on. An output schema exists, so return-value detail is not required, but without knowing what 'default_review_required_teams' retrieves, when to call it, or what arguments the connector operation expects, the tool cannot be safely and correctly selected.

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

Parameters4/5

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

With 0% schema description coverage, the description carries the parameter-meaning burden and mostly succeeds. Each parameter is given a concise gloss, e.g., 'project_id: Authenticated Project UUID' and 'connector_account_ref: Project-bound connector account alias', which adds meaning beyond the bare schema titles. The 'arguments' parameter remains vague, but the overall compensation is strong.

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

Purpose1/5

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

The description never states what the tool does. It opens with a tautology repeating the tool name and platform identifier, and the closest action phrase, 'Routes only through...', describes routing, not the operation itself. An agent cannot tell from this description that the tool retrieves default required review teams.

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

Usage Guidelines1/5

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

There is no guidance about when to use this tool versus alternatives. Despite many sibling tools such as github_get_branch_protection, github_list_pull_request_reviews, and github_list_rulesets, the description does not mention any alternative, exclusion, or use case.

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