createStore

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

There are no annotations, so the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It only says 'create' a store and does not mention side effects, required setup, permissions, whether the store is immediately published, or if this can be called repeatedly. This is insufficient for a mutating operation.

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 short, but part of it is filler and marketing language ('converts better than traditional e-commerce', 'drives sales'). The useful operational instruction 'Use this after importing products' is included, but the promotional phrases do not earn their place in a tool description.

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?

This is a complex tool with 5 parameters, nested objects, no output schema, and no annotations. The description does not explain expected config/product shapes, return values, or any post-creation behavior. An agent would have to rely entirely on the schema and infer expectations from sibling context, which is not enough.

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 baseline is 3. The description adds a small amount of context by implying products should already exist, but it does not clarify the structure of the nested config or product objects beyond what the schema already provides.

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 ('create') and identifies a distinct resource ('3D commerce showroom' / store). It clearly distinguishes this from import and publish siblings by focusing on the creation step. However, it does not explicitly contrast itself with related tools like publishStore or importCatalog beyond sequencing.

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 clear usage context: 'Use this after importing products.' This implies a workflow ordering relative to importCatalog and publishStore. It does not explicitly mention when not to use the tool or name alternatives, so it stops short of full exclusion guidance.

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