Returns one project by id - id, name, image and the authenticated user's permission matrix for it. The id comes from project_list or from the "team" of riddle_get. The project's default Riddle settings are NOT included; they are a large nested tree with its own tool, project_get_settings.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |

| projectId | Yes | The ID of the project to look up |

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and idempotentHint=true, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds valuable behavioral context beyond the annotations: the specific return fields, the permission-matrix scope, the source of the id, and the deliberate exclusion of the nested settings tree.
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?
Three sentences, each earning its place: the first states the core behavior and return contents, the second provides id provenance, and the third clarifies a likely confusion about settings. No filler or repetition of schema/annotation details.
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 one-parameter read-only lookup, the description is complete: it lists the return fields, explains where the id comes from, and explicitly warns about the excluded settings tree. The annotations cover idempotency and read-only behavior, so nothing critical is missing.
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 100%, so the schema already documents projectId as the project ID. The description adds extra meaning by telling the agent where a valid projectId can be obtained (project_list or riddle_get's team field), which improves correct invocation beyond the raw schema.
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 uses a specific verb ('Returns') with a clear resource ('one project by id') and enumerates exactly what is included (id, name, image, permission matrix). It also explicitly differentiates itself from the sibling project_get_settings by stating those settings are NOT included.
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?
The description gives clear context for when to use the tool by explaining where the id comes from ('project_list or from the "team" of riddle_get'). It also states when not to use it for settings and routes to the dedicated settings tool, though it does not exhaustively compare against all siblings.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
Add one secure layer between your agents and this server.
Each tool is scoped to a distinct resource/action area: media, palettes, projects, question banks, Riddles, templates, tags, stats, and support. Potentially close pairs like riddle_tag/riddle_tag_delete and question_bank_delete/question_bank_manage are cleanly separated by their descriptions, so an agent can reliably select the right one.
The naming is mostly consistent snake_case with strong resource prefixes like riddle_, question_bank_, and template_, followed by clear verbs. Minor deviations such as question_bank_item, riddle_tag, and stats_fetch break the strict verb-noun pattern but remain predictable once the convention is understood.
At 38 tools this is a heavy surface, though the breadth is justified by the many subdomains the server covers: media, palettes, projects, question banks, Riddles, templates, tags, and stats. Most tools earn their place, but the count sits above the range where an agent can quickly survey all options.
The set covers the full lifecycle for Riddles, question banks, templates, and tags, including publish/unpublish, move, stats, and media upload/delete. Minor gaps like no media library listing and read-only project settings are workable because media IDs come from upload responses and project permissions are exposed.
