Implementation Reference

  • The implementation of 'boj_github_create_issue' inside handleGitHubTool which calls githubApiCall.
    case "boj_github_create_issue":
      return githubApiCall("POST", `/repos/${args.owner}/${args.repo}/issues`, { title: args.title, body: args.body, labels: args.labels });
  • The registration of 'boj_github_create_issue' in the tool list generated for MCP clients.
    { name: "boj_github_create_issue", desc: "Create an issue on a GitHub repo", props: { owner: { type: "string" }, repo: { type: "string" }, title: { type: "string" }, body: { type: "string" }, labels: { type: "array", items: { type: "string" } } }, req: ["owner", "repo", "title"] },
Behavior1/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries full burden for behavioral disclosure. It only states the basic action without mentioning permissions required, rate limits, whether it's idempotent, what happens on failure, or the format of the response. This is inadequate for a mutation tool with zero annotation coverage.

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?

The description is a single, efficient sentence with zero wasted words. It's front-loaded with the core action and resource, making it easy to scan and understand quickly.

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?

Given the complexity (a mutation tool with 5 parameters), lack of annotations, and no output schema, the description is incomplete. It doesn't cover behavioral aspects, parameter details, or expected outcomes, leaving significant gaps for an AI agent to use the tool correctly.

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%, so parameters are undocumented in the schema. The description adds no information about parameters beyond implying 'owner', 'repo', 'title', 'body', and 'labels' from the tool name and context. It doesn't explain what these parameters mean, their formats, or constraints, failing to compensate for the schema gap.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states the action ('Create an issue') and target resource ('on a GitHub repo'), providing a specific verb+resource combination. It distinguishes from siblings like 'boj_github_comment_issue' or 'boj_github_get_issue' by focusing on creation. However, it doesn't specify scope or constraints beyond the basic action.

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?

No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives. It doesn't mention prerequisites (e.g., authentication, repository access), compare to similar tools like 'boj_gitlab_create_issue', or indicate when other tools might be more appropriate (e.g., 'boj_github_create_pr' for pull requests).

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