Freelo Finish Task

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

Annotations already establish readOnlyHint=false, destructiveHint=false, and idempotentHint=true. The description adds useful behavioral context beyond that by stating the task preserves all data and can be reactivated, which tells the agent the operation is reversible and non-destructive.

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?

Two compact sentences with no filler. The core action is front-loaded, and the reversibility note is a valuable addition that earns its place.

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 single-parameter tool with a rich schema, output schema, and relevant annotations, the description is complete. It states the action, outcome, data preservation, and reversal path; nothing essential is missing for correct invocation.

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% and the schema already documents taskId with its source (freelo_get_all_tasks). The main description does not add parameter-level meaning beyond the schema, so the baseline score of 3 applies.

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 uses a specific verb and resource ('Marks a task as finished/completed') and clarifies the state transition ('moved to finished state, preserving all data'). It also distinguishes this from the inverse sibling freelo_activate_task, so an agent can correctly separate the two lifecycle operations.

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?

The description clearly implies this is the operation to use when completing a task and explicitly names freelo_activate_task as the reactivation counterpart. It does not list exclusions or alternative completion-related tools, but the lifecycle context is strong enough for an agent to call it appropriately.

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