Create project

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

Annotations already indicate write/non-destructive. The description adds the capability to create within a group, which aligns with the namespace_id parameter. However, it does not disclose potential side effects (e.g., pipeline triggers, name collisions) or permission requirements.

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?

One sentence, front-loaded, concise without redundancy.

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?

For a tool with 8 parameters and no output schema, the description is too sparse. It omits common options (visibility, README initialization) and fails to explain response behavior or error cases, so an agent may need to guess or make unnecessary API calls.

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?

The description only addresses the namespace/group option; other parameters like visibility, topics, initialize_with_readme are not explained. With only 38% schema coverage, this leaves many parameters ambiguous for the agent.

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 identifies the action (creates) and resource (project) and adds a key differentiator (optionally inside a group). It distinguishes from sibling tools like update_project or delete_project.

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?

Only implies usage through the action verb. No explicit alternatives or when-not-to-use guidance is provided, leaving the agent to infer that this tool is for creating new projects.

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