List Nirvana Projects

list_projects

Retrieve all active projects from your Nirvana account to view task containers organized by shared outcomes.

Instructions

Returns the user's active projects in Nirvana (state=11). Projects are containers that group related tasks under a shared outcome.

Behavior2/5

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

No annotations provided, so description must carry behavioral disclosure. It only says 'active projects (state=11)' but does not mention authorization, rate limits, pagination, or side effects. Minimal transparency.

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?

Two efficient sentences: first states action and scope, second provides domain context. No fluff, front-loaded.

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

Completeness4/5

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

For a simple list tool with no parameters and no annotations, description covers the main function and entity meaning. Lacks details on sorting, completeness, or user scope, but adequate given tool simplicity.

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?

Input schema has zero parameters, so baseline is 4. Description adds value by specifying 'active projects (state=11)' beyond schema, which is helpful for understanding the filter.

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?

Description states verb 'Returns', resource 'active projects', and explains what projects are. It clearly distinguishes from siblings like get_project (single) and list_areas by specifying 'projects' as containers for tasks.

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 explicit guidance on when to use this tool vs alternatives (e.g., search_tasks, list_areas). Missing exclusions or context about when to prefer this over other listing tools.

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