get_flow_example

Read-only

Return one reusable flow example by id, optionally with a complete action batch you can adapt and pass to apply_actions. Read-only, needs no API key. Call search_flow_examples first to find the id.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
idYesRequired. Example id exactly as returned by search_flow_examples.
includeSchemaExampleNoSet true to include the full action-batch example — much larger, but it is the part you adapt for apply_actions. Defaults to false.

A4.7/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, and the description adds 'needs no API key', which is useful behavioral context beyond annotations. It also discloses the optional action batch inclusion, but does not elaborate on potential size implications or rate limits, keeping it at a 4.

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

Conciseness5/5

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

Three sentences with zero waste. The first sentence states the core function, the second adds safety and access notes, and the third gives actionable usage guidance. Purpose is front-loaded, making it easy to scan.

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

Completeness5/5

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

For a simple read operation with two parameters, the description covers purpose, usage flow, and behavioral traits. It references sibling tools appropriately, and given no output schema, the return type is implicitly understood. No gaps remain for selection or 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 covers both parameters fully (100% coverage). The description adds value by explaining the downstream purpose of 'includeSchemaExample' for adaptation into 'apply_actions', and clarifies the 'id' as returned by search_flow_examples, going beyond the schema's description.

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

Purpose5/5

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

The description uses the verb 'Return' and specifies the resource 'reusable flow example by id'. It clearly distinguishes itself from siblings by explicitly mentioning 'search_flow_examples' and 'apply_actions', providing context for its role in a workflow.

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

Usage Guidelines5/5

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

The description explicitly instructs to 'Call search_flow_examples first to find the id', guiding when to use this tool. It also explains the optional parameter's purpose relative to 'apply_actions', giving clear context for proper sequencing.

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

A4.1/5.0
Disambiguation4/5

Each get_/list_ tool targets a distinct resource and the descriptions carefully separate similar pairs like get_application_context vs get_workspace_summary and get_broadcast_details vs get_broadcast_analytics. The main ambiguity is apply_actions vs validate_actions, since one runs the other's validation, but the descriptions make that relationship explicit.

Naming Consistency4/5

Names consistently follow verb_object snake_case and use familiar verbs like create, get, list, and update. Minor deviations such as read_messages instead of list_messages, apply_actions/validate_actions with plural nouns, and run_flow_autotest are still predictable and readable.

Tool Count2/5

33 tools exceeds the 25-tool threshold and makes the surface feel heavy, even though the domain is broad. Many of the read-only getters are individually useful but could be consolidated, such as merging module catalog/details or workspace/application context.

Completeness4/5

Core workflows are covered: application lifecycle, flow editing through apply_actions, deployment, contacts, broadcasts, modules, and message/event reads. Minor gaps exist, such as no dedicated delete for contacts, applications, or broadcasts, and no rollback for deployments, but agents can work around or avoid these.
