generate_seed_data

Read-onlyIdempotent

Generate realistic, schema-aware INSERT statements for development and testing. Respects types, constraints, and FK relationships. Never executes. [BUILD tier]

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
tableYesTable to generate seed data for
formatNoOutput format (default sql)
row_countNoNumber of rows (default 100, max 1000)
connectionNoTarget connection name from this tenant's inventory. Call `list_connections` to see every name + dialect, then match semantically to the user's intent (e.g. 'analytics' → a connection named `*-analytics-*`; 'prod' → a connection with `prod-` prefix). If the user didn't specify, use the tenant's default (first added). Do not invent names — resolve from `list_connections` output.

A4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already cover readOnlyHint, openWorldHint, and idempotentHint, so the safety profile is established. The description adds meaningful behavior beyond these hints by specifying that output respects database constraints and foreign keys, and by explicitly stating 'Never executes' as a hard behavioral guarantee. No contradiction exists.

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 short sentences plus a tier tag, with no wasted words. It front-loads the core purpose, then adds behavioral constraints and safety information in a compact, scannable format.

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

Completeness4/5

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

For a generation tool with a full input schema and an output schema present, the description covers the essential purpose, schema-awareness behavior, and execution safety. It does not mention the connection parameter or output format, but those are already thoroughly documented in the schema, so nothing critical is missing.

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 description coverage is 100%, so the baseline of 3 applies. The description itself adds no per-parameter detail; all parameter meaning is fully documented in the input schema, including extensive guidance for the connection parameter. The description does not need to compensate for any schema gaps.

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 starts with a specific verb ('Generate'), a concrete deliverable ('realistic, schema-aware INSERT statements'), and an explicit use case ('for development and testing'). It further distinguishes the tool by mentioning that it respects types, constraints, and FK relationships, which clearly separates it from siblings like generate_migration or query_sql.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

The phrase 'for development and testing' provides a clear situational trigger, and 'Never executes' implies it should not be chosen when execution is required. However, the description never names an alternative tool or states explicit when-not-to-use conditions, so the agent must infer routing from the sibling list and general context.

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