Workspace Unfavorite File

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

Annotations already declare destructiveHint=true and openWorldHint=true, so the safety profile is partly covered. The description adds real value beyond structured data by stating confirm=True is mandatory — the schema only shows confirm with default false and no explanation, so this constraint would otherwise be invisible.

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?

Two short sentences, action first, safety gate second. Nothing extraneous and nothing buried.

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?

An output schema exists and annotations cover the destructive/open-world profile, so the description needn't explain return values. Still, for a destructive mutation it omits idempotency behavior (what if not favorited), the identifier formats, and any permission requirements — meaningful gaps given 0% schema coverage.

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% across 3 parameters, so the description carries the full burden. It clarifies only 'confirm' (must be True), leaving member_id and inode_id completely undocumented in both schema and description — an agent cannot tell whether inode_id is a document ID, path, or numeric identifier.

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?

States a specific verb ('Remove') and resource ('a document from a member's favorites'), which is clearly distinct from the inverse sibling workspace_favorite_file. It does not explicitly name that sibling or note the inverse relationship, but the action is unambiguous.

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?

The sentence 'Requires confirm=True' is a genuine usage prerequisite that an agent must honor before calling. However, there is no guidance on when to prefer this over workspace_favorite_file or workspace_list_favorites_for_member, and no note on what happens if the document is not currently favorited.

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