image.upscale

[paid: $0.005] Upscale a photo to about 4 megapixels (Pruna P-Image Upscale). Returns JSON {images:[{url, asset_key, download_url?, width, height}], price, next} plus a preview; images are stored in this workspace, never provider links, and a result with no download_url says why in download_url_unavailable. Refuses: SIMPLER_MEDIA_INPUT_MISSING (pass the url or the asset_key), SIMPLER_MEDIA_FOREIGN_KEY (use this workspace's asset_key), SIMPLER_MEDIA_URL_REFUSED (use https, data:image or an asset_key), SIMPLER_MEDIA_PIN_TOO_LARGE (under 20MB), INSUFFICIENT_CREDITS (add credits). SIMPLER_EDIT_RESULT_UNDELIVERED means the charge was refunded: retry. NEXT: pass images[0].asset_key as image_asset_key to the next image.* tool, or open download_url when the result carries one.

Tool call template

This tool declares no required parameters. Add optional parameters from the input schema as needed.

{
  "id": 1,
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "arguments": {},
    "name": "image.upscale"
  }
}

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
image_urlNoSource photo: a public https URL, a data:image/...;base64 URL, or the url/url_path of an earlier image result (max 20MB; PNG, JPEG, WebP or GIF; SVG is refused). Pass this or the matching *_asset_key, not both.
request_refNoOptional idempotency key (1-64 chars: letters, digits, . _ : -). Retrying with the same request_ref and the same arguments within 24 hours returns the first result at $0 with replayed: true; the same request_ref with different arguments is refused (SIMPLER_IMAGE_REQUEST_REF_CONFLICT), and so is a retry whose first result was deleted since (SIMPLER_IMAGE_REQUEST_REF_RESULT_DELETED): send a new request_ref to run it again.
preview_formatNoPreview block after the JSON, at most 384px on the long edge and never charged: png, jpeg or none. Left out, a PNG result gets a png preview and a JPEG or WebP result a jpeg one. A result with no preview says why in preview_unavailable.
image_asset_keyNoSource photo, as the asset_key of an earlier image result for this workspace (edit-projects/<tenant>/... or images/<tenant>/...). A key from another workspace is refused (SIMPLER_MEDIA_FOREIGN_KEY).

TDQS

A4.6/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations only declare readOnlyHint=false, yet the description discloses the price ($0.005), that images are stored in this workspace rather than provider links, that a missing download_url explains itself, and that SIMPLER_EDIT_RESULT_UNDELIVERED means the charge was refunded and should be retried. That is exactly the beyond-annotation behavioral context an agent needs for a paid mutation.

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 price and action, then returns, then errors, then next step in a clear order. It is dense and the error-code enumeration is long, but each segment carries actionable information rather than filler.

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?

No output schema exists, and the description fully specifies the JSON return shape, the preview block behavior, and failure semantics. Nothing an agent needs to invoke it or interpret the result is missing.

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 is 3; the description still adds value by linking results to inputs (pass images[0].asset_key as image_asset_key) and by restating the idempotency/refund semantics around request_ref. The parameter-level material largely echoes the schema, keeping it below a 5.

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?

States a specific verb and resource (upscale a photo) with the target resolution (~4 megapixels) and names the underlying model. An agent can distinguish it from siblings like image.convert or image.adjust without opening any schema.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

Gives explicit post-call routing (pass images[0].asset_key to the next image.* tool, or use download_url) and enumerates refusal codes with the corrective action for each. It stops short of naming a sibling to prefer for alternative scale/adjust needs, so it's strong context rather than a full when-to-use/alternatives statement.

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