Get Space Operations

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, openWorldHint=true, and destructiveHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds that the result is scoped to the current user and clarifies 'operations' as 'permissions', but does not disclose return format or any further behavioral details.

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 concise and front-loaded with a clear purpose sentence. The Args block is slightly redundant with the schema but does not significantly bloat the description. Overall, every sentence earns its place, though some redundancy exists.

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?

For a simple read-only tool with one parameter and good annotations, the description is minimally viable. However, it fails to distinguish itself from get_space_permissions and does not describe the output format, which could confuse an agent when selecting between similar tools.

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 description includes an Args section but only restates 'space_id: The ID of the space', adding little beyond the parameter name itself. With 0% schema coverage, the description fails to provide meaningful elaboration such as how to obtain the space_id or any format constraints.

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 gets operations/permissions for the current user in a space, with a specific verb and resource. However, it does not differentiate from the sibling tool get_space_permissions, which appears to serve a similar purpose.

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?

No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives like get_space_permissions or get_page_operations. The description simply states what it does without any contextual exclusions or recommendations.

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