create_invite

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

Annotations already indicate this is a non-read-only, non-destructive operation. The description adds little behavioral context beyond that: it does not mention side effects, permission requirements, whether the invite is immediately active, or any rate-limit concerns. There is 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.

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

The description is one tight sentence with the core action front-loaded and no filler. Every clause adds useful information.

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?

With no output schema and an open-ended 'data' object, the description is too thin to fully inform an agent. It omits return values, required permission context, valid values for max_age/max_uses, and what 'unique' controls. The nested object with additionalProperties true makes this ambiguity more impactful.

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?

The input schema gives no descriptions for either parameter, and schema description coverage is 0%, so the description must compensate. It does clarify that the nested 'data' object may include max_age, max_uses, and unique, but it leaves their types, units, and exact semantics undefined. channel_id is still explained only by the tool name.

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 states a specific action and resource: 'Create a channel invite'. It clearly differs from sibling tools like list_invites, create_channel, and send_message by naming the exact object being created.

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?

No guidance is given about when this tool should be used instead of alternatives, nor does it mention prerequisites like required Discord permissions. The agent must infer usage entirely from the tool name and the single-line description.

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