content_convert

Read-onlyIdempotent

Convert markdown to Notion block JSON or Notion blocks back to markdown. Use for preview or 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.

Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true, destructiveHint=false. The description adds valuable behavioral context on supported markdown features and inline formatting, but doesn't contradict annotations.

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 well-structured, starting with the main purpose, then usage guidance, followed by supported features. It is informative without being overly verbose, though could be slightly more concise.

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?

Given the presence of an output schema and comprehensive annotations, the description covers all necessary context: what it does, when to use, supported formats. It is complete for the tool's complexity.

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

Parameters4/5

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

Schema has 100% coverage with descriptions for both parameters. The description adds detail on direction values and content type, plus lists supported markdown, going beyond the schema.

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 the tool converts between markdown and Notion block JSON, with specific verb+resource. It distinguishes from siblings 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 (only for preview/validation) and when not to (most tools handle markdown automatically). Also names the two conversion directions.

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