Change, pause or resume a repeating wake-up

schedule_update
DestructiveIdempotent

Change a repeating wake-up (repeat, time_zone, target, payload, alert inbox, name: the same checks as creating it; its history stays), or pause it ("paused": waiting runs are canceled) or resume it ("active": from the next time after now).

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
nameNoYour own label, or null.
repeatNoWhen it repeats.
statusNopaused: stop it; active: run it again.
targetNoWhere each run is delivered.
payloadNoNew JSON sent with every run (up to 8 KB).
time_zoneNoNew IANA time zone, for example Europe/Istanbul. Left out: the current one stays.
instance_idYesUtility instance id from buy or list_utilities.
schedule_idYesschedule id (wsc_...) from schedule_create or schedule_list.
passport_tokenNoYour amp_ token, only if you have no app sign-in and cannot send a header.
alert_inbox_instance_idNoOne of your inboxes for missed-run messages, or null for the target inbox.

TDQS

A3.8/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare the mutation/destructive profile. The description adds useful behavior: existing history is retained, pausing cancels waiting runs, and resuming starts from the next time after now. It does not cover auth or rate-limit behavior, but the added context is substantial.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Front-loads the three main operations and packs key constraints into one dense sentence. Parentheticals make it slightly hard to scan, but nearly every phrase carries useful meaning and nothing is redundant.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Given 10 parameters, nested objects, and no output schema, the description covers the main mutation modes and important side effects. It does not explicitly state partial-update behavior for every field, but combined with the rich schema it is largely complete for correct invocation.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The description still adds meaning by enumerating the updatable fields and clarifying status semantics beyond the schema's brief 'paused: stop it; active: run it again' (waiting runs canceled; resume from next time after now).

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

States specific verbs (change, pause, resume) and the resource (a repeating wake-up), making clear it is distinct from schedule_create, schedule_list, and schedule_delete. It does not explicitly name those sibling tools, but the operation is unambiguous.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines3/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The description implies when to use each mode (update fields, pause, or resume), but gives no explicit guidance on when to choose this tool over schedule_create, schedule_delete, or other scheduling siblings. The intended context is clear enough, but alternatives are not addressed.

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