notion_list_comments

Read-onlyIdempotent

Retrieve comments from a Notion page through the governed connector. Use it to read discussion threads and review feedback without modifying content.

Instructions

Notion connector operation list_comments (platform tool notion.list_comments).

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

C2.2/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

The annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, and destructiveHint=false, so the core behavioral safety profile is covered. The description adds a vague note about running through project/account authority, but does not meaningfully describe side effects, scoping behavior, or error implications. There is no contradiction with 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 short and uses a clear argument list. It avoids unnecessary prose and is easy to scan. However, the first two lines are somewhat redundant with the tool name and platform prefix, and the parameter explanations add little real content, so it is not maximally effective.

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

Completeness2/5

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

The tool appears to be a generic connector wrapper, but an agent is not told what belongs inside the 'arguments' JSON string, what Notion resource is being listed, or what the output will look like. The context signal says an output schema exists, but no output schema is shown and the description gives no return expectations. This leaves too much ambiguity for correct invocation.

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

Parameters2/5

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

The schema has zero description coverage, so the description must compensate, but it mostly repeats the parameter names with generic labels like 'JSON string of arguments for the connector operation' and 'Project-bound connector account alias.' The key 'arguments' parameter is opaque and does not explain what Notion-specific fields are needed for list_comments. Some wrapper parameters are minimally clarified, but the core payload semantics are missing.

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

Purpose2/5

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

The description mostly restates the tool name: 'Notion connector operation list_comments (platform tool notion.list_comments).' It does not explain what listing comments means in Notion, which page or block context it applies to, or what kind of results are returned. The verb/resource is clear from the name, but the description adds little domain-specific purpose.

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 sibling Notion tools such as notion_search, notion_query_data_source, or notion_query_database. The phrase 'Routes only through the exact project/account governed connector authority' describes routing constraints, not usage context. An agent is not told what scenario calls for listing comments.

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