update_folder_is_expanded_by_id_api_v1_folders

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

No annotations are provided, so the description must disclose behavioral traits. It only states 'Update', implying mutation, but does not mention side effects, prerequisites (e.g., folder must exist), or what happens to the folder state.

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 very short (5 words), which is efficient, but it is too minimal to be useful. It sacrifices substance for brevity, so it earns a middle score.

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?

Given the tool has two required parameters, no annotations, no output schema, and many sibling folder tools, the description is severely incomplete. It does not explain the effect of updating 'is_expanded', how to integrate with folder operations, or the expected response.

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?

With 0% schema description coverage, the description should clarify parameter meaning. It hints at 'id' and 'is_expanded' but does not explain the boolean field (e.g., true means expanded, false collapsed). The raw schema already provides type, but the description adds no semantic value.

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 'Update Folder Is Expanded By Id' is almost a tautology of the tool name, providing no additional meaning. It does not explain what 'is_expanded' means or how it affects folder behavior, leaving the purpose unclear even among sibling folder tools.

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?

There is no guidance on when to use this tool versus other folder update tools (e.g., update_folder_name_by_id). The description lacks any when-to-use or when-not-to-use information.

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