content_convert

Read-onlyIdempotent

Convert markdown to Notion block JSON or Notion blocks to markdown. Use for preview and validation of content formatting.

Instructions

Convert between markdown and Notion block JSON. Directions: markdown-to-blocks (input: markdown string), blocks-to-markdown (input: JSON array of Notion blocks or JSON string). Most tools (pages, blocks) handle markdown automatically -- use this only for preview/validation. Supported markdown: headings, lists, to-do, code blocks, blockquotes, dividers, callouts (> [!NOTE]), toggles (), tables, images, bookmarks, embeds, equations ($$), columns (:::columns), [toc], [breadcrumb]. Inline: bold, italic, code, strike, link.

Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already indicate readOnlyHint=true, destructiveHint=false, idempotentHint=true. The description adds behavioral context (conversion, not mutation) and input/output formats, aligning with annotations.

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

Conciseness5/5

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

Concise and well-structured: purpose, directions, usage guidance, supported features. No redundant sentences; each sentence adds value.

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

Completeness5/5

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

Despite lacking output schema, the description is complete: inputs, directions, supported markdown, and usage context are fully covered, enabling correct tool selection and invocation.

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

Parameters5/5

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

Schema coverage is 100%, but description adds value by clarifying direction enum semantics, content type (string or JSON string), and providing a comprehensive list of supported markdown features, enriching agent understanding.

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

Purpose5/5

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

The description clearly states it converts between markdown and Notion block JSON, specifies two directions, and distinguishes from sibling tools by noting that most tools handle markdown automatically, reserving this for preview/validation.

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

Usage Guidelines5/5

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

Explicitly states when to use (preview/validation) and when not to (other tools handle markdown automatically). Provides supported markdown features, making usage clear.

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