task_sync_md

Syncs TASK.md with the database so project task lists stay current. Use it to refresh or update the markdown task file from stored task records.

Instructions

Sync TASK.md from DB.

Tool call template

Replace each placeholder with a value matching the input schema. Only required parameters are included; add optional parameters as needed.

C2.7/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

With no annotations, the description carries the full behavioral burden, but it only says 'Sync TASK.md from DB.' It does not disclose whether existing TASK.md content is overwritten, whether the file is created if missing, what happens on DB errors, or whether the operation is reversible.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

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

The description is a single front-loaded sentence with no wasted words. It is perhaps overly terse for a mutating sync operation, but structurally it is efficient and direct.

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

Completeness2/5

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

For a file-writing sync tool with no annotations, no output schema, and an undocumented parameter, the description is not complete enough. An agent still lacks key details about side effects, overwrite behavior, and how project_root is used.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters2/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

There is one required parameter, project_root, with 0% schema description coverage. The description does not mention it or explain how it identifies the project directory whose TASK.md is synced, so it fails to compensate for the missing schema documentation.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description states a specific verb ('Sync') and resource ('TASK.md'), plus the source ('from DB'), so an agent can infer it regenerates TASK.md from database state. It does not differentiate from siblings, but no sibling performs this exact file-sync operation.

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?

The description gives no guidance on when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist. It does not mention prerequisites such as needing an initialized project or existing DB records.

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