sophos_bulk_add_mailboxes

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

Beyond annotations indicating mutation (readOnlyHint=false) and non-destructive (destructiveHint=false), the description provides no additional behavioral context such as idempotency, error handling, or expected processing time.

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 single sentence is concise but too vague to be fully informative; it lacks structure and could be expanded with minimal overhead.

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 2-parameter tool with no output schema, the description does not provide sufficient context about return values, error states, or practical aspects of bulk operations, leaving agent uninformed.

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 coverage is 100% with descriptions for all parameters, so the description adds no extra meaning. Baseline score of 3 is appropriate.

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 ('Add multiple mailboxes') and the context ('to email protection'), and implicitly distinguishes from the sibling single-add tool by emphasizing 'multiple' and 'single request'.

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 on when to use this tool vs alternatives (e.g., sophos_create_mailbox for single mailboxes), nor any prerequisites or constraints mentioned.

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