create_template

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries full burden for behavioral disclosure but provides almost none. 'Create' implies a write/mutation operation, but the description doesn't disclose permission requirements, whether this is idempotent, what happens on success/failure, rate limits, or any side effects. The 'Qiita Team only' hint is the only behavioral context provided.

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 extremely concise at just 6 words, with zero wasted language. It's front-loaded with the core action ('Create a new template') and adds only the essential restriction ('Qiita Team only'). Every word serves a purpose.

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 creation/mutation tool with no annotations and no output schema, the description is inadequate. It doesn't explain what a template is in this context, what happens after creation, whether there are validation rules, or what the response contains. The 'Qiita Team only' hint is helpful but insufficient for a tool that presumably creates persistent resources.

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 100%, so the schema already fully documents all three parameters (title, body, tags). The description adds no additional parameter information beyond what's in the schema - no examples, format details, constraints, or usage patterns. Baseline 3 is appropriate when the schema does all the parameter documentation work.

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 a new template') and specifies the target resource ('template'), making the purpose immediately understandable. However, it doesn't differentiate this tool from sibling tools like 'update_template' or 'delete_template' beyond the basic verb, and the 'Qiita Team only' restriction is a usage constraint rather than a purpose distinction.

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 includes 'Qiita Team only' which provides some context about when this tool is applicable, but it offers no guidance on when to use this versus alternatives like 'update_template' or 'delete_template'. There's no mention of prerequisites, dependencies, or typical scenarios for template creation.

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