insert_markdown_at_paragraph

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

With no annotations, the description must convey behavioral traits. It only states what the tool does, not how it behaves (e.g., whether it overwrites existing content, what happens if paragraph_index is out of bounds, or if it requires specific permissions). The description does not disclose any side effects or constraints.

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 a single sentence, which is concise. However, it is too minimalistic, sacrificing clarity and completeness for brevity. It could benefit from additional context without becoming verbose.

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 tool's complexity (3 required parameters, no output schema, no annotations) and the large set of sibling insertion tools, the description is insufficient. It lacks details on parameter interpretation, document ID format, and indexing, making it difficult to invoke correctly without external knowledge.

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 0%, and the description does not explain the parameters beyond their names. 'paragraph_index' could be 0-based or 1-based; 'markdown' format is unspecified; 'doc_id' format is unclear. No additional meaning is provided.

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 the verb 'insert', the resource 'Markdown', and the location 'at the specified paragraph'. It implies insertion at a specific paragraph via the parameter name, but does not explicitly differentiate from siblings like 'insert_markdown_end' or 'insert_markdown_start'.

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 is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as 'insert_text_at_paragraph' or 'insert_html_at_paragraph'. There are no conditions, prerequisites, or exclusions stated.

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