scaffold_ts_lib

Scaffold a minimal strict-TypeScript library with package.json, tsconfig, and src/index.ts.

Instructions

Create a minimal strict-TypeScript library (package.json, tsconfig, src/index.ts).

Behavior2/5

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

Lacks any behavioral details beyond the files created. No annotations exist, so the description should disclose side effects (e.g., overwrite behavior), permissions, or post-creation steps. The minimal description leaves important behavioral traits unspecified.

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?

Single sentence, concise, front-loaded, with no wasted words. Perfectly sized for the tool's simplicity.

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

Completeness3/5

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

Adequate for a simple tool with two parameters and no output schema, but missing usage context and behavioral transparency. Could mention that it initializes a minimal library structure and note any overwrite behavior.

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% with both parameters described, so the baseline is 3. The description does not add further meaning beyond the property descriptions, but that is acceptable given full schema coverage.

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?

Clearly states the verb 'Create' and the specific files produced (package.json, tsconfig, src/index.ts), distinguishing it from sibling scaffolding tools like scaffold_go and scaffold_nextjs.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

Provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, no prerequisites, and no mention of typical use cases. With many sibling tools, this omission makes it harder for an agent to choose correctly.

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