get_workspace_template

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

No annotations are provided. The description states it returns 'success, template or error', which implies a read operation, but lacks details on error handling, authentication, or side effects. Not contradictory with any annotations, but minimal transparency.

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 concise with a clear Args/Returns structure. However, the parameter contradiction reduces its effectiveness. Otherwise, it is front-loaded and efficient.

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?

The output schema exists, reducing the need for return value details, but the description fails to provide parameter semantics (e.g., format of template_name) and contains a contradiction. This leaves gaps for correct usage.

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 description coverage is 0%, so the description must explain parameters. It lists names and Japanese translations, but claims 'caller_agent_id' is required, contradicting the schema which shows it as optional with default null. This misleading info harms parameter understanding.

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 verb 'get' and the resource 'workspace template', specifying that it retrieves details of a specific template. This distinguishes it from sibling tools like 'list_workspace_templates' which lists all templates.

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 implies usage (retrieve one template by name) but does not explicitly differentiate from alternatives. No guidance on when to use this tool versus 'list_workspace_templates' or other getters.

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