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 clearly states the tool changes task status (Yapılacak → Devam Ediyor → Tamamlandı) and distinguishes it from siblings like update_task by specializing in status transitions. It also mentions the automatic completed_at setting, adding specificity.

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?

The description implies this tool is for status changes but does not explicitly state when not to use it (e.g., for other updates use update_task) or provide exclusions. The usage context is implied but lacks explicit guidance.

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