B3.4/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It states the action but does not disclose return value, permission requirements, potential side effects on duplicates, or validation behavior. For a mutation tool, this is a significant transparency gap.

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?

The description is a single concise sentence, front-loaded with the verb. Every word contributes to the overall meaning, with no redundancy or filler.

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?

The tool has 7 parameters including hierarchy (parent_task) and assignment (assigned_to), yet the description only gives a high-level purpose. It does not explain the return value, the role of created_by, or the workflow context relative to update and assign tools. The absence of an output schema further increases the need for richer context, which is not met.

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?

The input schema has 100% description coverage, so the baseline is 3. The description does not add extra semantics for specific parameters; however, 'agent assignment' loosely hints at the assigned_to field but without detail beyond the schema.

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 'Create a new task for tracking and agent assignment' uses a specific verb and resource, clearly distinguishing from siblings like update_task, list_tasks, and assign_task. The purpose of tracking and agent assignment adds context.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

The description implies use for creating a new task, but does not explicitly mention when not to use it or compare with alternatives like update_task or assign_task. There is no direct exclusion or alternative guidance, only the inherent implication from the verb 'create'.

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