Paragraphs Item Create

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full behavioral burden, and it discloses almost nothing: no permission/auth requirements, no statement about whether the new item is attached to a host entity or orphaned, no info on revisions or returned identifiers. Only 'of the specified type' hints at a validation dependency.

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?

A single front-loaded sentence with no filler. It is efficient, though the brevity here reflects under-specification rather than disciplined concision, which keeps it out of the top band.

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?

Output schema exists so return values need not be described, but for a mutation tool with zero annotations, an opaque nested 'fields' object, and no error/auth context, the description is far too thin for the agent to invoke it correctly.

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 coverage is 0% and there are two required parameters. The description maps loosely to type_id ('specified type') but says nothing about the required 'fields' object, which is a free-form nested object (additionalProperties: true) whose keys presumably must match the paragraph type's field names — critical context that is absent from both schema and description.

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?

States a specific verb and resource ('Create a new paragraph item') and adds a scoping qualifier ('of the specified type'), which is more than a tautology of the title. It does not, however, distinguish itself from the many other create_* siblings (create_node, create_term, create_media) beyond the noun, so an agent gets no explicit routing help.

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?

No guidance on when to use this versus paragraphs_item_update, create_node, or layout_builder_section_add, and no prerequisite such as the paragraph type having to exist first (paragraphs_type_list/paragraphs_type_create). The agent must infer usage entirely from the name.

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