freeagent_create_project

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

The description only says 'Create a new project', with no disclosure of behavioral traits such as return values, side effects, authentication requirements, or idempotency. With no annotations, the description should provide more context.

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 concise sentence with no waste. However, it is perhaps too terse given the complexity of the tool.

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 tool with 13 parameters, 6 required, and no output schema or annotations, the description is inadequate. It fails to explain expected behavior, return format, or error conditions, leaving the agent with insufficient context.

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 input schema has 100% coverage of parameter descriptions, so the baseline is satisfied. The description adds no extra semantics beyond the schema's parameter descriptions, such as clarifying relationships between parameters or required fields.

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 'Create' and resource 'project' in 'FreeAgent', which is sufficient to identify the tool's purpose. However, it does not distinguish this create tool from other create tools (e.g., freeagent_create_contact) or from the update tool.

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. For example, it does not mention that a contact must exist before creating a project or that updating an existing project should use freeagent_update_project.

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