jira_list_projects

Read-onlyIdempotent

Fetches the list of Jira projects associated with an authenticated connector account, enforcing project-scoped governance and exact connector authority.

Instructions

Jira connector operation list_projects (platform tool jira.list_projects).

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.

Tool call template

Replace each placeholder with a value matching the input schema. Only required parameters are included; add optional parameters as needed.

TDQS

B3.3/5.0
Behavior3/5

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 covered structurally. The description adds useful context about governed routing and that `effect` must be `read`, but the mention of 'resuming a write' for approval_ref is slightly confusing in a read-only tool. It does not 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.

Conciseness4/5

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

The description is compact and front-loaded with the operation identity and governance constraint before the parameter list. The Args block is efficiently formatted, though some phrasing feels boilerplate-heavy and the routing sentence is somewhat abstract.

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

Completeness3/5

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

The output schema and annotations reduce the burden on the description, and the parameter glosses help. However, the description does not explain when to supply project_id versus project_ref versus connector_account_ref, nor what the `arguments` JSON should contain for a list operation. For a governed connector wrapper, this is a meaningful but not fatal gap.

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?

Schema description coverage is 0%, so the description must carry the parameter documentation burden, and it does. Every parameter is given a meaningful gloss: `arguments` is a JSON string, `project_id` is the authenticated project UUID, `effect` must be read, and `approval_ref` is for write-resume scenarios. It could go further by clarifying which routing identifiers are required or how they relate, but it is substantially better than the raw schema.

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

Purpose4/5

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

The description identifies the tool as the Jira connector operation `list_projects`, which clearly indicates the verb (list) and resource (projects). It is not as explicit as a full sentence like 'Lists all Jira projects', and it does not distinguish itself from sibling tools such as jira_get_project, but the operation name and platform tool reference provide sufficient clarity.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

No guidance is given on when to use this tool instead of alternatives like jira_get_project, jira_search_issues, or jira_list_issue_types. The description focuses on routing and parameter mechanics rather than usage context, leaving an agent to infer when listing projects is appropriate.

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