create_download

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

No annotations are provided, so the description must convey behavioral traits. It only says 'Create' without disclosing side effects, asynchronicity, permissions, or return behavior. This lacks the transparency needed for a creation tool.

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 and free of fluff, which is good. However, it is under-specified for the complexity of the operation, making it less effective than a more balanced description that includes essential context.

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 creates a batch download, but the description lacks any mention of response format, job lifecycle, or conditions. With no output schema and no annotations, this leaves the agent under-informed about what to expect.

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 schema describes 'size' (including default) but not 'asset_ids'. The description does not compensate for the undocumented parameter, merely hinting at 'multiple assets' without adding real semantic value. Since schema coverage is only 50%, this is a noticeable gap.

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 states a clear action ('Create') and a specific resource ('batch download for multiple assets'), which is helpful. However, it does not distinguish this tool from the similarly named sibling 'bulk_download_assets', so it lacks differentiation.

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?

There is no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'bulk_download_assets' or 'get_download'. The description gives no context for selection or prerequisites, leaving the agent without direction.

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