B3.4/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full behavioral disclosure burden. It simply says 'Update' without mentioning side effects, partial update behavior, idempotency, permissions, or error cases. The schema's mention of 'partial update supported' is not echoed in the description.

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

Conciseness5/5

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

The description is a single, focused sentence that front-loads the primary action and resource. Every word contributes to clarity, and there is no redundant or filler content.

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?

With no annotations, no output schema, and a mutation tool, the description is too sparse. It does not explain partial updates, what happens to unspecified properties, required permissions, or how to construct nested icon/cover objects. The context is insufficient for reliable tool selection and invocation, despite the schema covering parameters.

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

Parameters3/5

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

Schema description coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The description lists the parameter groups ('properties, icon, or cover') but does not add meaning beyond the schema. It neither clarifies types nor provides additional usage context for these parameters.

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

Purpose5/5

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

The description uses a specific verb 'update' with a clear resource 'Notion page' and enumerates the scope ('properties, icon, or cover image'). This distinguishes it from sibling tools like update_block and update_database, which target different resources.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines3/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The description implies usage by stating the action, but provides no explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like archive_page, restore_page, or create_page. There are no exclusions or alternative tool references, leaving the decision to the agent's inference.

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