get_workspace_summary

Read-only

Return a compact application, flow, sequence, operation, and bot summary — the cheapest way to orient in a workspace. Read-only, no side effects. Deliberately omits variables and full flow graphs: use get_variable_context for variables, get_flow_context for a flow's topology, and get_application_context when you need flows, bots, and variables together.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
flowIdNoNarrow the summary to one flow. Omit to summarize every flow in the application.
applicationIdNoApplication (workspace) id. Optional: an application-scoped key (app_...) defaults to its own application, but a personal key (usr_...) has no default and omitting it fails with MCP_APPLICATION_REQUIRED. Call list_applications to get the id.

A4.8/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

The description restates the read-only nature, which matches the annotation, and adds a behavioral detail about the omission of certain data. It also notes a specific error condition for personal keys when applicationId is omitted (MCP_APPLICATION_REQUIRED), which is useful context not captured in annotations. The description does not contradict annotations.

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?

The description is three sentences, each adding value without redundancy. The first sentence states the purpose, the second confirms safety, and the third provides usage boundaries with alternatives. No filler or repetition.

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?

Despite lacking an output schema, the description sufficiently characterizes the return content (compact summary of entities) and clearly explains parameter behavior and error conditions. With two optional parameters and full schema coverage, the description completes the picture for correct invocation.

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

Parameters5/5

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

Schema coverage is 100%, yet the description adds significant meaning: for flowId it clarifies that omitting it summarizes all flows; for applicationId it explains default behavior and error handling, and suggests calling list_applications. This goes well beyond the basic schema descriptions.

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 clearly states that the tool returns a compact summary of application, flow, sequence, operation, and bot details, and labels it as the cheapest way to orient in a workspace. It distinguishes itself from sibling tools by explicitly listing what it omits (variables, full flow graphs) and directing to alternatives, making the purpose unambiguous.

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 provides explicit when-to-use and when-not-to-use guidance, italicizing the omitted features and naming specific sibling tools (get_variable_context, get_flow_context, get_application_context) for more detailed needs. This directly informs the agent about appropriate invocation contexts.

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.
