create_form

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the behavioral burden. It discloses the core behavior—creating a new form—and usefully states the return value includes a confirmation message, form ID, and edit URL. However, it does not explain auth requirements, side effects, duplicate behavior, or scope of access, which would be valuable for a create operation.

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 and well-structured with an opening purpose sentence followed by Args and Returns sections. It avoids excessive fluff, though the phrase 'in the provided form message in the request' is redundant and slightly confusing. Overall, it 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 simple form-creation tool with four parameters and a described return value, the description is largely complete. It covers all parameters and the output contract. The main gap is the lack of usage context, such as whether prior authentication is needed or what the 'provided form message' refers to, but the low complexity keeps this from being a major issue.

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 compensate, and it does. It documents all four parameters with meaningful semantics: user_google_email is the user's Google email, document_title is shown in the browser tab, and description is the form's description. It clearly marks required and optional parameters, though it omits example values or format constraints.

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 states a specific verb and resource: 'Create a new form.' It clearly indicates this tool creates a form as opposed to updating, reading, or publishing one. However, it doesn't explicitly call out how it differs from sibling form-related tools like batch_update_form, and the phrase 'in the provided form message in the request' is somewhat awkward.

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?

There is no explicit guidance about when to use this tool versus alternatives. It never mentions prerequisites like starting Google auth, or when to prefer batch_update_form or set_publish_settings instead. The usage context is only implied by the verb 'Create'.

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