v0.1.5Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
There are no annotations to cover safety or side effects, so the description carries the full burden. It simply says 'close' without indicating whether the action prompts for saving, discards unsaved changes, or has other destructive consequences. This is a significant gap for a mutation tool.
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 a single, direct sentence with no superfluous words. It is efficient and front-loaded with the core action.
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 tool that closes a project, the description lacks essential context: what happens to unsaved changes, whether it is reversible, and any side effects. Without an output schema or annotations, this is incomplete for an agent to safely invoke.
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?
The tool has zero parameters, so the schema is fully covered (100%). The description does not need to explain parameter semantics; the baseline of 4 applies because there is nothing to add.
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 (close) and the resource (current Audacity project). It is specific enough to distinguish from siblings like project_save, project_new, or project_open, which have different actions.
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 is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives. It does not mention prerequisites, such as saving before closing, or whether unsaved changes might be lost. The user must infer usage from the name alone.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
