Integrations: oauth configure

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

Annotations already declare destructiveHint=true and readOnlyHint=false, telling the agent this writes/mutates state. The description adds nothing about what gets overwritten (existing credentials for that provider), secret handling, or permission requirements, so it contributes no behavioral context beyond the annotations.

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?

A single short, front-loaded sentence with zero padding. It is efficient, though terse enough that it borders on under-specification rather than ideal conciseness.

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?

This is a destructive 5-parameter mutation with no output schema. The description omits how disable interacts with stored credentials, what happens on reconfiguration of an already-configured provider, and when social sign-in should be enabled — gaps the schema does not close.

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 100% and all five parameters (disable, client_id, client_secret, use_social_sign_in, provider) are documented in the schema. The description only restates client_id/client_secret and adds no syntax, format, or interaction detail, so baseline 3 applies.

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?

Clear specific verb (set) plus resource (OAuth client ID + secret) scoped to a provider. An agent can tell it apart from connect/status/callback_url siblings by the credential-writing action, though the description never names those siblings.

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 when-to-use, prerequisites, or alternatives are stated. The reader must infer from the name alone that this is a setup step preceding integrations_oauth_connect; the description text adds no routing guidance.

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