Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It does not state side effects (e.g., changing project status), permissions needed, reversibility, or any operational details. The description adds nothing beyond the tool name.
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 extremely short (two words), but this is under-specification rather than conciseness. It lacks structure and substance, providing no value beyond what the name already conveys.
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?
The tool has a nested parameter object, no annotations, and no output schema. The description is completely inadequate to guide an agent on invocation, expected behavior, or return values. It is one of the least complete descriptions possible.
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?
The input schema defines a pathParams object with required format and projectId, but the description does not explain these parameters or their purpose. Since schema description coverage is 0%, the description must compensate, and it completely fails to do so.
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 'Reopen project' is essentially a restatement of the tool name 'reopenProject'. It provides no additional context about what reopening entails, how it differs from close/archive/unarchive, or any scope. This is a tautology, scoring 2 on the rubric.
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 description offers no guidance on when to use this tool versus siblings like unarchiveProject, updateProject, or closeProject. There is no mention of prerequisites, status requirements, or alternative tools. It provides no usage context at all.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
