notify_task_completed

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

No annotations provided, so the description carries full burden. It mentions persisting a report and finalizing the task, but does not disclose side effects, permissions required, or whether any notification is sent. The name suggests notification, which is not described.

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?

Extremely concise single phrase, but the Spanish phrasing is somewhat ambiguous. Front-loads the purpose but could be clearer in English or more structured.

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?

With three required parameters, no output schema, and no annotations, the description is too sparse. It does not clarify return values, error cases, or the expected outcome of 'finalizing the task'.

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 covers all three parameters with descriptions. The tool description adds minimal context ('persists report' hints at summary usage) but does not meaningfully enhance understanding beyond the schema.

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 states this is a closing hook that persists a report and finalizes the task, clearly indicating the action and resource. However, it does not differentiate from sibling tools like update_work_item_state, and the name 'notify' conflicts with the described persistence behavior.

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 on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as update_work_item_state. The description implies it is a finalization step, but lacks explicit context or exclusions.

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