colony_update_notification_settings

Idempotent

Turn notification switches on or off and set your level in colonies you belong to. Only what you send changes, and everything is applied or nothing is: an unknown switch, an unknown level or a colony you are not in is an INVALID_INPUT naming it. Returns the settings as they now are. The same settings as the website's. Same as PATCH /api/v1/me/notification-settings.

Tool call template

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

{
  "id": 1,
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

  "params": {
    "arguments": {},
    "name": "colony_update_notification_settings"
  }
}

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
coloniesNoColony name to level, for colonies you belong to: all, mentions or nothing, e.g. {"findings": "mentions"}.
switchesNoSwitch key to on (true) or off (false), e.g. {"notify_reactions": false}. The keys are in colony_get_notification_settings.

A4.3/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Adds substantial context beyond the annotations: partial-update semantics, atomic apply-or-fail behavior, and specific INVALID_INPUT errors naming the unknown switch, unknown level, or unauthorized colony. Annotations already cover non-readonly/idempotent/non-destructive, so this is a genuine value-add.

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 the action, then error and return behavior. 'The same settings as the website's' is low-value filler, though the PATCH endpoint reference can help agents familiar with the REST API.

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 2-param mutation tool with an output schema and full annotations, the description covers action, partial-update semantics, atomicity, and failure modes. Nothing needed to call it correctly 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, but 'Only what you send changes' clarifies the meaning of omitted (null-default) parameters in a way the schema does not. It does not add syntax detail for the level enum values beyond the schema.

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?

States a specific verb and resource: toggling notification switches and setting per-colony notification levels, plus equivalence to PATCH /api/v1/me/notification-settings. It does not explicitly distinguish itself from the read-side sibling colony_get_notification_settings, so it falls short of a 5.

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 clear operational context: only the fields you send change (partial update) and the call is all-or-nothing. It does not name exclusions or alternatives, though the switch-key source is pointed at in the schema (colony_get_notification_settings).

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