Panel: read connection

view_connection
DestructiveIdempotent

App-only adapter that refreshes account access, selected computer and available computer/session state in the connection panel. Returns a panel connection payload rather than opening another workspace. An already accepted shared session may become the selected route. Does not launch Blender or create a new access grant. Models should use get_connection for the same connection information without a visual panel, or get_setup_status to diagnose runtime readiness.

A4.3/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnly=false, destructive=true, and idempotent=true. The description adds useful context about the app-only panel behavior, the returned payload, the possibility that an accepted shared session becomes the selected route, and non-effects such as not launching Blender or creating an access grant. However, it does not explain the destructive side implied by destructiveHint=true, leaving a meaningful behavioral gap.

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 front-loaded with purpose and then moves through return behavior, side effects, non-effects, and alternatives. Each sentence adds distinct information, though there is some mild redundancy around not opening a workspace and not launching Blender.

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?

With zero parameters and no output schema, the description supplies enough context about what the tool refreshes, what it returns, what it does not do, and which sibling tools cover related needs. The only notable omission is explicit clarification of what destructive behavior is possible given the destructiveHint=true annotation.

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?

The tool has zero parameters, so there are no parameter semantics for the description to clarify. The description does not need to compensate for any schema gaps, consistent with the baseline for parameterless tools.

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 and resource: refreshing account access, selected computer, and available computer/session state in the connection panel. It also distinguishes this visual-panel adapter from get_connection and get_setup_status, so an agent can identify when this tool is the right one.

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 explicitly names alternatives: use get_connection for the same connection information without a visual panel, or get_setup_status for runtime diagnosis. It also clarifies that this does not launch Blender or create a new access grant, giving clear boundaries for invocation.

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