List Creator Filter Options

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

Description is consistent with annotations (readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true). It adds behavioral context: pagination parameters (page, per_page) and that it returns a JSON array. No contradictions.

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?

Description is concise (3 sentences plus API path). Front-loaded with purpose and usage. The API info at the end is useful but not essential. No wasted words.

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 simple nature of the tool and good annotations, the description covers purpose, usage hints, and return format. No output schema, but description says 'JSON array of available filter values', which is sufficient.

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 coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3. Description only mentions required parameter project_id, which is already in the schema. Does not add new semantic meaning beyond what the schema provides.

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 returns a list of available creator filters for Coordination Issues, with a specific verb ('Returns') and resource ('creator filters'). It distinguishes itself among siblings because it's the only tool focused on listing creator filter options for Coordination Issues.

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?

Provides guidance on when to use: 'to enumerate Coordination Issues when you need a paginated overview, to find IDs, or to filter by query parameters.' It also mentions required parameter project_id. Lacks explicit exclusions or alternatives, but direction is clear.

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