gdrive_write_file

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

No annotations provided, so description bears full burden. It mentions automatic upload but is truncated. Missing behavioral details like permissions required, file size limits, or overwrite behavior. For a mutating operation, this is insufficient.

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?

Very short, but truncated and incomplete. Loses points for being cut off mid-sentence, though the visible part is brief and somewhat clear.

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?

Tool appears simple due to zero parameters, but description omits critical context like file name/path. No output schema, so return value is unexplained. Incomplete for a write operation.

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 has zero parameters, which is atypical for a write tool. Description does not explain what file is being written or how to specify it. Schema coverage is 100% but meaningless with zero params, and description fails to compensate.

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?

Description states 'Writes or overwrites a text file in the synced Google Drive folder', which clearly conveys verb and resource. It distinguishes from siblings like gdrive_read_file or gdrive_list_files. However, the description is truncated, leaving minor ambiguity.

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 such as onedrive_write_file or other write tools. No context about prerequisites or 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.
