cuemap_project_pack

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

With no annotations, the description carries the full burden, and it adds meaningful behavioral context by warning that the package contains sensitive project content and must only be written after explicit user approval of the exact path. It could also mention overwrite/error behavior or return value, but the safety-relevant side effect is clearly disclosed.

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 two dense, purposeful sentences: the first states the action and target artifact, and the second adds the essential human-approval condition. There is no filler or redundant schema text.

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?

Combined with the schema, the definition covers the core action, the output artifact, and the critical approval gate, even without annotations or an output schema. It would be more complete if it distinguished this tool from project_export/save and described overwrite behavior, but nothing essential for correct invocation is missing.

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 100%, so the schema already documents output_path, project, confirmed, and overwrite. The description adds context that the output is a local .cuemap file and that the path must be exact, but it does not meaningfully explain parameter behavior 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 first sentence uses a specific verb and resource: 'Write a ready-to-query .cuemap package for one project to a local file.' This clearly conveys the core action and scope. It does not explicitly contrast siblings such as cuemap_project_export or cuemap_project_save, so it stops short of a 5.

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 gives a clear safety precondition: use only after explicit user approval of the exact output path. However, it does not say when to choose this tool over the many project-related siblings like export, save, or package_load, nor does it state exclusions.

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