create_drive_folder

Idempotent

Create a Drive folder path, including any missing parent folders, without errors if it already exists.

Instructions

Idempotently create a Drive folder path, creating missing parents like mkdir -p. Returns created=false when the full folder path already exists.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
driveYesa string that will be trimmed
pathYesa string that will be trimmed

Output Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
resultYesThe successful tool result. The same value is also serialized as JSON in the text content for clients that do not read structuredContent.
warningsNoOptional agent-visible warnings about degraded result fidelity. Omitted when the server returned the documented happy-path payload.
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already provide idempotentHint=true, and the description adds valuable context by explaining the mkdir -p behavior and the returned created=false flag. No contradictions; it discloses the idempotent creation and outcome.

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?

Two sentences with no wasted words. The key behavior is front-loaded ('Idempotently create a Drive folder path'), making it efficient for an agent to parse.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Given the presence of an output schema and comprehensive annotations, the description covers the essential behavior. It explains idempotency and return value, leaving no critical gaps for a simple creation tool.

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 coverage is 100% but the schema descriptions are minimal ('a string that will be trimmed'). The description does not add extra meaning to the parameters, such as path format or constraints.

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 clearly states the verb 'create' and resource 'Drive folder path', and specifies idempotent behavior with mkdir -p semantics. It distinguishes from siblings like create_drive which creates a drive, not a folder.

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 implicitly suggests using this tool to create folder paths idempotently, but does not explicitly state when to use it over alternatives like move_drive_item or when not to use it.

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