backlog_organize_folder

Create folders to organize project items. Use parent_id to nest; leave blank for unfiled items at wakeup.

Instructions

Use when creating a folder to organize project items. Pass parent_id when known; parentless work surfaces as unfiled at wakeup.

Input Schema

titleYes
contentNo
parent_idNo
Behavior2/5

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

No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. It reveals the unfiled behavior for parentless folders but omits permission requirements, error handling, or effects of other parameters like 'as' or 'content'.

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, no wasted words. Information is front-loaded and immediately actionable.

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?

With 4 parameters, no output schema, and no annotations, the description leaves gaps: no return value description, no error conditions, and insufficient guidance for 'as' and 'content' usage.

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 low (25%, only for 'as'). The description adds meaning for parent_id (parentless unfiled) but offers no details on title or content, which are also undocumented in the schema.

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 tool creates a folder to organize project items. This distinguishes it from sibling tools like backlog_create_work (which likely creates general work items) and other specialized tools.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

It advises to pass parent_id when known and explains consequences of parentless creation. However, it does not explicitly exclude alternatives or mention when to use backlog_create_work instead.

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