init_agent

Create the SIFS Claude agent file in the shared workspace to enable local hybrid code search for AI agents.

Instructions

Create the SIFS Claude agent file in the shared workspace.

Tool call template

B3.1/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description must fully disclose behavior. It states 'Create' but does not describe write permissions, what happens if the file exists without the force flag, or any other side effects. The description adds little beyond the schema's parameter descriptions.

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, clear sentence with no superfluous words. Every word adds value, and the structure is optimal for quick comprehension.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness3/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Given the tool has only two optional parameters and no output schema, the description is moderately complete. It explains the file creation action but lacks context on the 'shared workspace' or what the agent file is used for, leaving some ambiguity about the tool's role in the broader workflow.

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 schema covers 100% of parameters with descriptions, so the baseline is 3. The tool description does not add any additional meaning or context to the parameters beyond what is already in the schema, such as clarifying the default path or the effect of force.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description states the verb 'Create' and clearly identifies the resource as 'the SIFS Claude agent file' in the 'shared workspace', making the tool's purpose clear. However, it does not explicitly differentiate this tool from sibling tools like 'agent_context' or 'agent_print', which could also relate to agents.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives, nor are any prerequisites or exclusion criteria mentioned. The description simply states what the tool does without context on when it is appropriate to invoke.

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