create_interview_template

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It only says 'Create an interview template,' which implies a mutation but reveals nothing about side effects, required permissions, idempotency, or response format. For a creation operation with zero annotation coverage, this is insufficient.

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 very short and unambiguous, which is concise. However, it is under-specified—it sacrifices necessary detail for brevity. It doesn't waste words, but it also doesn't earn its place by adding value beyond the tool name. It is appropriately sized only if the bare minimum counts, but it lacks structure and front-loaded essential context.

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?

Given the tool has a nested config object, no annotations, and no output schema, the description must compensate by explaining usage and expected behavior. It provides none of that. An agent would have to guess what 'config' accepts and what happens after creation. This is completely inadequate for a tool with this complexity.

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?

Schema description coverage is 0%, meaning the schema provides no parameter descriptions, and the tool description adds no information about 'name' or 'config'. The 'config' is an open-ended nested object with additionalProperties, yet the description doesn't hint at its purpose or structure. The agent receives no guidance on parameter meaning or usage.

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 states a clear verb ('Create') and resource ('interview template'), making the core purpose unambiguous. However, it doesn't differentiate from sibling tools like update_interview_template or delete_interview_template beyond the verb itself, which is inherent. It's clear but minimal.

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?

There is no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as update_interview_template or list_interview_templates. No prerequisites, exclusions, or contextual hints are provided. The tool's purpose is implied by the create verb, but the description gives no explicit direction on appropriate usage.

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