organize_by_file_date

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

No annotations are provided, so the description must bear full responsibility for behavioral transparency. It mentions the core action and date criteria but fails to disclose potential side effects (e.g., overwriting, permissions), error handling, or folder naming conventions beyond the example. Limited transparency for a tool with 5 parameters.

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 sentences long with no fluff. It front-loads the action and parameter detail, then provides an illustrative example. Every sentence 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?

The description covers the core purpose adequately but omits behavioral details (error handling, folder naming pattern specification) and does not clarify the relationship with sibling tools. The lack of output schema increases the need for description completeness, which is only partially met.

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 parameters are well-documented. The description adds a useful example of folder naming, but otherwise repeats information already in the schema (e.g., date_type). The value added is marginal, meeting the baseline 3.

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 clearly states that the tool classifies PDF files into date-based folders based on their modification or creation date. It provides a concrete example ('2026년 06월 11일') which distinguishes it from sibling tools like organize_directory or organize_pdf that likely do not sort by date.

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 implies the tool is for date-based organization but does not explicitly state when to use it over alternatives (e.g., organize_pdf). There is no guidance on prerequisites or exclusions, leaving the agent to infer context from the sibling tool names.

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