Cirra AI Salesforce Admin MCP Server

sobject_update

Idempotent

Update properties of a custom Salesforce object, such as label, plural label, description, sharing model, or deployment status

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
sObjectYesThe API name, label or ID of the custom sObject
sf_userNo(optional) Salesforce username to identify the connection to use. Omit this to use the current default connection.
propertiesYesA map of properties to update on the object. For example: 'label'. At least one property must be updated
cirra_ai_teamNo(optional) Cirra team ID or name that owns the Salesforce connection to use for this call. Must be provided together with 'sf_user'. Use it to run against a specific team's connection without changing your default team — e.g. to keep separate chats on Salesforce orgs in different teams. Omit it when this call carries the context_handle from cirra_ai_init, which names the team for the conversation. A user with more than one place to work (several teams, or a team and a personal account) must pass either the context_handle or 'cirra_ai_team' + 'sf_user'.
context_handleNo(recommended) The conversation context handle returned by cirra_ai_init in this conversation. Pass the exact context_handle value from the most recent cirra_ai_init result so this call runs against the team and Salesforce connection selected for this conversation. A user with more than one place to work (several Cirra AI teams, or a team and a personal account) must pass either this handle or 'cirra_ai_team' + 'sf_user'; a call with neither is refused.

TDQS

B3.3/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare the mutation profile (readOnlyHint=false, idempotentHint=true, destructiveHint=false), so the description does not need to restate safety. It does add useful context by naming updatable properties, including sharing model and deployment status, but says nothing about required permissions, whether omitted properties are preserved, or the consequences of changing deployment status.

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?

One front-loaded sentence with no filler, and the examples are placed after the verb+resource so the purpose lands first. It is efficient, though the example list could have been used to carry a constraint instead of just enumerating fields.

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

Completeness3/5

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

Output schema and annotations are present, so return values and safety are covered elsewhere. The remaining gap is the free-form 'properties' map: an agent still lacks a definitive list of settable keys, their value formats, and whether a partial update overwrites unspecified properties.

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 coverage is 100%, so the baseline would be 3, and the description earns above baseline because the 'properties' parameter is a free-form map with no declared keys — the description supplies the only guidance on valid entries (label, plural label, description, sharing model, deployment status). It still does not state accepted value types or formats for those keys.

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 a specific verb (update) and resource (custom Salesforce object properties) and enumerates the kinds of properties affected, which separates it from record-level tools like sobject_dml. It does not name the closest siblings (sobject_field_update, metadata_update) explicitly, so differentiation is by inference rather than by statement.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

There is no when-to-use or when-not-to-use guidance, and no mention of the adjacent tools an agent might confuse it with, such as sobject_field_update for fields or sobject_create for new objects. The only usable signal is the implicit 'this mutates object metadata' reading of the description.

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