D1.6/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

Annotations set readOnlyHint: false, indicating a mutation. The description implies a change of state but provides no details about what unarchiving does (visibility, status, side effects, reversibility). It adds no behavioral context beyond the annotation and the verb itself.

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

Conciseness2/5

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

The description is extremely short, but this is under-specification rather than conciseness. It lacks any structure to convey purpose, parameters, or usage. A single vague phrase cannot be considered appropriately sized for a tool with nested parameters.

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

Completeness1/5

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

The tool has one required parameter with nested fields, no output schema, and no behavioral hints beyond annotations. The description provides none of this context, leaving an agent without essential information to call the tool correctly or understand its effects.

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

Parameters1/5

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

Schema description coverage is 0%. The description mentions none of the parameters (pathParams with format and projectId). It does not explain the purpose of format or projectId, nor the constraints (enum for format, required fields). The agent gets no help from the description.

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

Purpose2/5

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

The description 'Unarchive project' simply restates the tool name with no added detail. It is a tautology: the name already conveys the same verb-resource pairing. It does not distinguish itself from sibling archiveProject or explain any scope.

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

Usage Guidelines1/5

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

No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives. There is no mention of archiveProject or any context such as project status, prerequisites, or effects. The agent must infer usage entirely from the name.

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