find_unresolvedIdentify unresolved links in your vault, grouped by missing target, to fix broken connections and keep notes organized.
List links that don't resolve to any note in the vault, grouped by target — useful for vault maintenance.

v0.6.0Input schema / additionalPropertiesAdded value: +falsev0.1.0Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true, and destructiveHint=false, so the description adds the grouping behavior. However, it does not disclose scope (e.g., all link types) or performance implications.
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, front-loaded sentence with no unnecessary words. It clearly states the action and purpose.
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 tool has no output schema and a simple purpose, but the description does not fully convey the return format (e.g., how targets are grouped, or what information accompanies each link). It is adequate for a straightforward list but lacks completeness.
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 0 parameters with 100% coverage, so the baseline is 4. The description does not need to add parameter details, and it correctly implies no inputs are required.
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 uses a specific verb 'List' and resource 'links that don't resolve to any note', clearly distinguishing it from sibling tools like find_orphans (which finds notes not linked) and get_backlinks (which shows incoming links).
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 states it's 'useful for vault maintenance' but does not explicitly advise when to use this tool versus alternatives like find_orphans or search_notes, nor does it mention when not to use it.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
