gdrive_write_file

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

With no annotations, the description states it overwrites and uploads automatically, which discloses key behavior. However, it does not mention whether it creates new files, requires specific permissions, or has rate limits. Incomplete but acceptable.

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?

Single, focused sentence that gets to the point quickly. Truncated ending reduces conciseness slightly, but no fluff.

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?

Without output schema or annotations, the description should provide more context about file naming, content source, and behavior on overwrite. It is truncated and lacks details needed for safe usage.

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?

Input schema is empty, so description cannot add parameter info. However, the tool likely needs parameters (content, filename) which are missing, indicating a design gap. Description does not compensate for missing schema details.

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?

Describes writing/overwriting a text file in the synced Google Drive folder. Clear verb and resource, and distinguishes from read and search siblings. However, description is truncated, slightly reducing clarity.

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?

No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like onedrive_write_file, or when not to use (e.g., binary files). No prerequisites or exclusion criteria are mentioned.

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