taiga_users_watched

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden. It simply states what the tool does without disclosing any behavioral details such as read-only nature, response format, pagination, authentication requirements, or whether it includes all item types. This leaves significant ambiguity for the agent.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is a single sentence, extremely concise, and directly states the purpose. Every word earns its place with no waste or unnecessary filler.

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

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

For a simple one-parameter list tool, the description is minimally adequate but incomplete in context. It does not clarify what 'items' encompasses (e.g., projects, epics, user stories) or mention pagination/response behavior. However, the low complexity and schema coverage mitigate the gap, making it acceptable but not comprehensive.

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

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

The input schema has 100% coverage with the parameter described as 'User ID', and the tool description confirms the id is the user whose watched items are listed. This adds no new syntax or format details beyond the schema, so the baseline of 3 is appropriate.

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

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

The description 'List items watched by a user' clearly states the action (list) and the resource (items watched by a user). It distinguishes from sibling tools like taiga_users_liked and taiga_users_voted by focusing on 'watched', though it does not specify the types of items or filtering scope.

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

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 does not mention conditions like 'use taiga_users_liked for liked items' or any exclusions. The intended use is only implied by the name and description.

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