itglue_create_password

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

No annotations are provided, so the description bears full burden. It mentions the confirm requirement and required fields but omits important behavioral details: return value, error handling, idempotency, rate limits, or prerequisites (e.g., user permissions).

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 sentences with no wasted words. First sentence states purpose and required fields; second sentence adds critical safety warning. 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?

Tool has 14 parameters and no annotations or output schema. Description covers only basic purpose and a few optional fields, leaving out essential behavioral context such as response shape, error scenarios, and side effects. Incomplete for safe 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 description coverage is 50%. Description adds context for common optional fields (username, url, notes) and clarifies the mandatory confirm token, but does not explain other parameters like passwordCategoryId, passwordFolderId, resourceType, or OTP fields.

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?

Clearly states 'Create a password entry' with specific verb and resource. Distinguishes from sibling tools like update and delete by specifying creation, and from other create tools by naming 'password'.

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?

Explicitly notes that this is a 'Sensitive write' requiring a confirm token, guiding the agent to use it only for intentional password creation. However, it does not explicitly state when not to use it or mention alternatives like bulk_create or update.

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