Run an allowlisted project task

run_task

Execute pre-configured tasks in a secure local workspace, enabling controlled actions without arbitrary shell access.

Instructions

Run one task whose executable and arguments were explicitly configured by the user.

Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already indicate the operation is not read-only and not destructive, so the bar for behavioral disclosure is lower. The description adds the crucial context that the task is 'allowlisted' and user-configured, implying security sensitivity. However, it does not mention potential side effects, output format, or error behavior, leaving some behavioral ambiguity.

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?

A single sentence that conveys the core function without verbosity. Every word adds value, and the critical 'allowlisted' qualifier is front-loaded. Perfectly concise for a tool of this simplicity.

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

Completeness2/5

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

Despite the tool's low complexity, the description does not specify what the tool returns (e.g., output of the task), whether it blocks until completion, or how errors are surfaced. Since there is no output schema and annotations give minimal guidance, the agent is left guessing about the call behavior. A sentence on return format or side effects would meaningfully improve completeness.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters2/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 0% and the description does not explicitly define the two parameters. It only implies that taskName refers to the configured task and projectId to the project. An agent without prior knowledge would not know what values to supply for these parameters, making this a weak point.

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 a specific verb 'Run' with a clearly bounded resource: 'one task' that is 'allowlisted' and whose executable/arguments were pre-configured. This distinguishes it from all siblings (none of which execute tasks) and leaves no ambiguity about what the tool does.

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 implies usage: run a pre-configured task, but provides no explicit guidance on when to prefer this over alternatives, nor any exclusions (e.g., 'do not use for ad-hoc commands'). Since no sibling does anything similar, the lack of named alternatives is acceptable, but the description could be clearer about when to invoke it.

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