Update Project

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

No annotations provided, and the description offers minimal behavioral disclosure beyond indicating mutation. It doesn't mention side effects, permissions, or reversibility, which is a gap for a mutation tool.

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 (one sentence) and gets to the point, but lacks structural elements like bullet points or front-loading of key 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?

Despite high schema coverage, the description is too brief for a tool with 10 parameters and no output schema. It fails to explain common usage patterns or behavior when optional parameters are omitted.

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?

Schema description coverage is 90%, so the schema adequately documents parameters. The description adds no additional meaning beyond stating the tool updates settings, providing no extra parameter context.

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 clearly states it updates project settings and requires a project ID. However, it does not differentiate from siblings like PROJECT_createProject or PROJECT_deleteProject beyond the verb 'update'.

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 on when to use this tool versus alternatives. It simply says 'change/update project settings' without specifying scenarios or prerequisites.

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