Start SAP Memory Session

sap_session_start

Start a high-level SDK session by session ID. SAP MCP context: Memory/session flow. Store only intentionally encrypted payloads or public hashes; session and vault PDAs are visible on-chain metadata.

SAP MCP execution guidance: Intent: SAP MCP tool workflow. Pricing: paid read-premium; estimate first, then use sap_payments_call_paid_tool when the runtime cannot replay x402 natively. Routing: paid hosted call; call sap_estimate_tool_cost first, then use sap_payments_call_paid_tool if the runtime cannot handle x402 natively. Signer boundary: hosted reads/builders never receive keypair bytes; value-moving results must be finalized locally when signing is required.

C2.9/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already indicate non-read-only, non-destructive, non-idempotent behavior. The description adds that session and vault PDAs are visible on-chain and warns about storing sensitive data, but does not detail the side effects of starting a session (e.g., creation of PDAs or vault initialization).

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

Conciseness2/5

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

The description is bloated with repeated boilerplate text (identical block in description and input schema). The actual useful content is only one sentence, making it inefficient for an agent to parse.

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

Completeness2/5

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

Despite an output schema existing, the description does not explain what the tool returns or how the started session is used in subsequent operations. It lacks context on prerequisites or the flow (e.g., why one would start a session now).

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

Parameters3/5

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

Schema coverage is 100%, and the schema descriptions for sessionId and vaultNonce are already adequate. The description adds no additional meaning beyond the schema, so baseline 3 is appropriate.

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?

The first sentence clearly states the tool starts a high-level SDK session by session ID, and the title specifies 'Start SAP Memory Session'. This distinguishes it from fetch or vault sessions, though it could explicitly contrast with similar tools like sap_fetch_session or sap_premium_session_start.

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?

No explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. The description contains generic boilerplate about pricing and routing but fails to indicate prerequisites (e.g., having a session ID) or when not to use it.

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