Create Environment

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

Annotations only provide openWorldHint, so the description carries most of the behavioral disclosure burden. It does disclose that the call returns an operation_id, which hints at asynchronous behavior, but it does not explain that the operation may be long-running, how to track it, or any side effects beyond creating the environment.

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 two short sentences with no filler. The action is stated first, and the operation_id return contract is a useful, non-redundant addition that earns its place.

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?

Given the complexity of a 13-parameter, 8-required-parameter environment creation tool and no output schema, this description is too thin. It does not connect the returned operation_id to kinsta_operations_status, mention async behavior, or provide any fallback/failure context an agent needs when invoking a heavyweight creation operation.

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?

Schema description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents all 13 parameters and their meanings. The description adds almost no parameter-level value beyond reinforcing that the environment belongs to a site, which maps to site_id but is already stated in the schema.

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 states a specific action and resource: 'Create a new WordPress environment for a site' and adds the key return value, an operation_id. It is clear enough to distinguish from site-level tools like kinsta_sites_create, but it does not explicitly differentiate itself from the similarly named kinsta_environments_create-plain sibling.

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?

The description gives no guidance about when to choose this tool over alternatives such as kinsta_environments_create-plain or kinsta_environments_clone. The use case is only implied by the phrase 'for a site,' with no when/when-not reasoning or exclusions.

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