Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault

usersYesUsers removed from the Call; each entry uses ``slack_id`` and/or external_id, display_name, avatar_url.

Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It fails to disclose side effects (e.g., whether removal is reversible, permissions required, error handling for non-existent users).

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

Conciseness4/5

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

The description is a single concise sentence with no unnecessary words. It is front-loaded but could be slightly improved by using 'Remove' instead of 'Register' for clarity.

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

Completeness2/5

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

Although an output schema exists, the description does not explain what the tool returns (e.g., success response, list of removed participants). It also lacks context on error conditions or any irreversible nature of the action, which is important for a mutation tool.

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

Parameters3/5

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

Schema coverage is 100%, so the input schema already describes both parameters thoroughly. The description adds no additional meaning beyond what the schema provides, making it adequate but not additive.

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

Purpose4/5

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

The description clearly states the action ('Register participants removed') and the resource (a call). It implicitly distinguishes from the sibling 'calls_participants_add'. However, the verb 'register' is slightly misleading as the tool performs removal, not just logging.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

No explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives (e.g., calls_participants_add). No prerequisites or conditions (e.g., call must exist, users must be participants) are mentioned.

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