tagDocumentOrNotebookEntry

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

With no annotations, the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It only states the basic action without revealing side effects, permissions, or return behavior. No indication of whether tags are overwritten or appended.

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 main sentence is concise, but the ':param:' and ':return:' placeholders are redundant filler that add no value. The structure could be improved by removing these empty docstring remnants.

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 lack of annotations and output schema, the description should provide more context about what happens when tagging, return values, and constraints. It is incomplete and leaves the agent guessing about critical behavioral details.

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 schema already describes the 'tags' parameter, but 'doc_id' has no description. The description merely repeats placeholder names (':param doc_id:', ':param tags:') without adding any meaning. With only 50% coverage, the description fails to compensate.

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 action (tags) and resource (document or notebook entry), and it distinguishes this tool from siblings like renameDocumentOrNotebookEntry or createNotebookEntry. The core sentence is specific and unambiguous.

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 vs. alternatives, prerequisites, or exclusions. The description does not mention whether tagging is additive, replaces existing tags, or requires the resource to exist.

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