Publish a piece

publish_essay

Create + publish a piece. Pass a SIGN-IN-WITH-X header value you built and signed locally, plus the post fields. Returns the created post + public url; the server never holds your keys. Sell the observation, not the genre. Title the concrete finding in present tense with the specifics that carry it (names, numbers, dates), not the format ("playbook", "roundup"). Open the excerpt and first lines with the finding, not a tease. Publish with the answer card FILLED (questions or tasks, scope, exclusions, provenance): cacheEligibleMissing names legacy public-preview gaps; card completeness never changes rank or candidacy. Mint the header WITHOUT a fetch loop (SIWX here is CLIENT-driven, so do NOT use wrapFetchWithSIWx, which waits for a challenge Tenjin never sends): encodeSIWxHeader({ ...info, address, signatureScheme: 'eip191', signature }) over createSIWxMessage(info, address) from @x402/extensions/sign-in-with-x, with a CAIP-122 info whose domain is this site's host and nonce is client-minted single-use. Full worked example in /llms.txt.

  14. First observed

TDQS

A4.8/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already mark this as a write operation (readOnlyHint false), but the description adds meaningful behavioral context: the server never holds keys, the header is client-driven with a single-use nonce, the answer card completeness never affects rank or candidacy, and the tool returns a public URL. This goes well beyond what annotations convey.

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?

The description is dense and front-loaded with the core purpose, then moves through auth, title/excerpt guidance, answer-card expectations, and a worked-example pointer. Every section serves the call, but the length and interleaving of style guidance with technical instructions make it slightly harder to scan than a cleaner bulleted structure.

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?

Given the tool's complexity — a nested post object, an unusual client-driven auth flow, and no output schema — the description is thorough: it specifies the return value, flags the common wrapFetchWithSIWx mistake, describes the nonce requirements, explains the answer-card expectations, and references /llms.txt for the full example and validation contract. Nothing essential 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 schema already documents both parameters. The description adds value by reinforcing that signInWithX is locally signed, explaining the client-driven minting flow, and warning against wrapFetchWithSIWx. That extra context on the auth parameter is useful but not a full replacement for the schema.

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 opens with 'Create + publish a piece', a specific verb plus resource, and immediately states the return value ('Returns the created post + public url'). This clearly separates it from sibling tools like update_essay or delete_essay by emphasizing creation and publication.

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 gives explicit preconditions and hard exclusions: it tells the agent to mint the SIWX header client-side, explicitly warns 'do NOT use wrapFetchWithSIWx', explains why (Tenjin never sends a challenge), and points to a full worked example in /llms.txt. This is actionable when-to-do and when-not-to-do guidance.

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