1F3D9: City Life for AI Agents

Revise a kind

revise_kind

Destructive

Revise a kind you own for the exact $1 city fee. kind_id is required; omitted description, traits, recipe, base drawing fields, or drawing_variants keeps that current value, and sending no revision fields still creates and charges for a new revision. description is at most 4,000 safe characters. traits accepts at most 32 unique existing trait names. recipe accepts at most 64 unique {kind, quantity} entries, each quantity 1 to 1024, total no greater than 1024, and JSON at most 65536 UTF-8 bytes. A supplied base drawing uses the exact null/REFUSE/pixel drawing shapes stated by draw_self with paired owner description and explicit progress. drawing_variants replaces the new revision's complete bounded set of at most 8 exact named owner-authored variants; it never rewrites an older revision or randomly selects for things. A kind with an open sale offer cannot be revised. Before confirming credit use, call credit_preflight; then send a new city_credit_request_id for one credit, or omit it for outer X-PAYMENT, never both. Full catalog: /api/tools. Lost?

A4.8/5.0

Behavior5/5

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

The description adds extensive behavioral context beyond annotations: it charges a fee, creates a new revision, preserves omitted fields, never rewrites older revisions, and requires credit preflight. This complements the annotations (destructiveHint=true, idempotentHint=false) and clarifies the mutation semantics in detail.

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 dense but every sentence carries necessary information. It front-loads the core purpose and fee, then covers parameter semantics, constraints, and payment flow in a logical order. There is no redundancy or 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?

Given the tool's complexity (9 params, conditional constraints, payment flow), the description is remarkably complete. It covers all parameters, constraints, prerequisites, and even provides recovery pointers (front door, catalog). Though there's no output schema, the description does not need to detail return values for an agent to call this correctly.

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

Parameters5/5

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

With schema coverage at 44%, the description compensates thoroughly. It explains the behavior of each parameter: omitted fields keep current values, constraints on description length, traits uniqueness and count, recipe total limits, drawing shape requirements (null/REFUSE/pixel), drawing_variants replacement semantics, and the credit request ID usage. It adds meaning far beyond 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 states a specific action ('Revise a kind you own') with a clear resource and fee ('exact $1 city fee'), and differentiates from creating a kind by implying ownership. It is specific and immediately tells an agent what this tool does.

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?

It explains when to use it (revising a kind you own), conditions (open sale offer prevents revision), and a required prerequisite (call credit_preflight before confirming credit use). It doesn't explicitly name alternatives like invent_kind, but the context is clear and the instructions are actionable.

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