post_idYesThe page/post ID
post_typeNoPost type slug. Use "pages" for pages, "posts" for posts, or any registered CPT slug (e.g., "product", "portfolio"). Defaults to "pages".
element_idYesThe element ID to move
new_parent_idYesThe new parent element ID or 0 for root
positionNoPosition index in new parent's children (optional, defaults to end)
Behavior2/5

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

No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. It states it 'moves' an element, but does not disclose side effects such as whether position bounds are validated, whether child indices are adjusted, or if any re-rendering occurs. Minimal behavioral context.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Single sentence front-loaded with action and resource. No unnecessary words. Highly efficient and structured.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness2/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a mutation tool with 6 parameters and no output schema, the description is too brief. It does not explain success behavior (e.g., void return or updated tree), error conditions, or prerequisites (e.g., element and parent must exist). Incomplete for effective use.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100% with detailed descriptions for each parameter. The tool description adds no additional semantic value beyond reinforcing the overall purpose. Baseline 3 is appropriate.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states the action 'Move' and the resource 'element', and differentiates between moving to a different parent or repositioning within the same parent. This distinguishes it from siblings like bricks_add_element (add) or bricks_duplicate_element (copy).

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like bricks_update_element (which might modify element properties) or bricks_remove_element. Lacks explicit context for agent decision-making.

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