createLaunchPlanSlide

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

With no annotations, the description carries the full burden for behavioral disclosure. It mentions 'create or update' but does not explain the update behavior (though the _index parameter partially covers this in the schema). No mention of authentication, idempotency, or side effects.

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 a single sentence of 9 words, which is concise but at the expense of necessary detail. It is not overly verbose, but arguably under-specified.

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 slide tool with 4 parameters and no output schema, the description is incomplete. It does not describe the slide's visual structure or how the arrays (risks, milestones, workstreams) are rendered. More context is needed for an agent to use this tool effectively.

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 only 25% (only _index has a description). The tool description adds no parameter information beyond the schema. It does not explain the meaning of risks, milestones, or workstreams, leaving the agent without context for these parameters.

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 'Create or update a go-to-market launch plan,' but the tool name indicates it is a slide. The purpose is vague and does not clearly specify that it creates a slide, nor does it distinguish the slide's content from sibling tools like createMilestoneTimelineSlide.

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. There is no mention of when to create versus update, or when to choose this slide over other slide types like createExecutiveSummarySlide.

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