Flag a collective note (by id) as wrong, outdated, or harmful. Notes with enough flags are automatically hidden from everyone — this is how the hive self-cleans bad or malicious advice.

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description carries full burden. It discloses that notes are automatically hidden after enough flags, which is useful behavioral info. However, it omits details like reversibility, rate limits, or whether the flagger can unflag.
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 concise sentences with no redundancy. Every part adds value: first sentence states action, second explains consequence and broader purpose.
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?
With no output schema, the description should clarify return values or side effects. It explains the auto-hiding behavior but does not mention success indicators, error conditions, or flag count feedback. Incomplete for an action tool.
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 has 1 parameter (note_id) with no description, and the tool description only mentions 'by id' without additional semantic guidance (e.g., format, where to find it). Since schema description coverage is 0%, the description should compensate but does not add meaningful detail.
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?
Description clearly states the verb 'flag' and the resource 'collective note by id', and explains the purpose of self-cleaning the hive. Sibling tools like slipstream_vote and slipstream_note have distinct purposes, making this tool's role unambiguous.
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?
Description implies usage context ('wrong, outdated, or harmful' notes) and the outcome (auto-hiding), but does not explicitly state when not to use this tool versus alternatives like slipstream_vote (which may serve a different purpose). Missing explicit exclusion criteria.
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 has a clear, distinct purpose: fetching cached content, getting outlines, leaving/recalling notes, flagging/voting notes, global stats, and cutoff-aware updates. No overlapping functionality.
Two naming prefixes are used ('cached_' and 'slipstream_'), plus 'whats_new' deviates entirely. While 'slipstream_' is consistent for most tools, the mixture with 'cached_' and the odd 'whats_new' reduces overall consistency.
8 tools cover the server's domain well—neither too few nor too many. Each tool earns its place for a focused collective caching and note-taking service.
The tool set covers core operations: fetch/outline (read), note creation, recall (read notes), flag/vote (moderation), and whats_new (diff). Missing explicit update or delete for notes, but flagging serves as a community-driven delete mechanism.
