Add RSS feed

create_rss_feed

Add an RSS autopost feed. The feed is polled every 15 minutes and new items become posts on the chosen channels. The server validates that feedUrl is a reachable public RSS 2.0 or Atom feed. An organization can have up to 20 feeds. Use this when the user wants new items from an RSS/Atom feed to become posts automatically.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
modeNodraft = new items become draft posts for review (the default); publish = auto-published.
nameYesFeed name (max 100 chars).
feedUrlYesPublic RSS 2.0 or Atom feed URL.
channelIdsYesIDs of channels new items are posted to (at least 1).
fieldMappingNoField mapping controlling how each feed item becomes a post.
requireApprovalNoHold items auto-published from this feed for team approval — each generated post lands with approvalStatus 'pending' and waits for approve_post. Only meaningful when mode is 'publish' (draft items never publish on their own, and a feed force-demoted to draft by the plan gate stays ungated). Defaults to false.

A4.4/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Beyond the annotations (readOnlyHint=false, destructiveHint=false), the description discloses meaningful behavioral traits: 15-minute polling cadence, automatic post creation, server-side validation that feedUrl is a reachable public RSS 2.0 or Atom feed, and the organization limit of 20 feeds. These details give the agent actionable expectations about side effects and constraints.

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 four short, information-dense sentences. The core purpose is front-loaded, followed by behavioral detail, a constraint, and a usage trigger, with no redundant or filler content.

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 complex create tool with a nested fieldMapping schema and no output schema, the description supplies essential operational context: polling interval, reachability validation, org-level feed limit, and automatic posting behavior. It does not mention return values or failure semantics, but the rich input schema already covers parameter-level details.

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 all six parameters, including mode, fieldMapping, and requireApproval, are already documented at the property level. The free-text description adds little parameter-specific guidance beyond restating feedUrl validation, so a baseline 3 is appropriate.

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 a specific verb and resource, 'Add an RSS autopost feed,' and explains the mechanism: the feed is polled every 15 minutes and new items become posts on chosen channels. This clearly distinguishes it from sibling tools like update_rss_feed, delete_rss_feed, and list_rss_feeds.

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?

The description includes an explicit usage trigger: 'Use this when the user wants new items from an RSS/Atom feed to become posts automatically.' It does not enumerate when not to use the tool or explicitly route to update_rss_feed for existing feeds, but the create-only semantics and sibling context make the appropriate use clear.

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

A3.8/5.0
Disambiguation3/5

Many tools occupy adjacent spaces, especially the interactive view_* tools versus their get_/list_ counterparts (view_posts/list_posts, view_analytics/get_analytics) and the multiple upload paths (upload_media, create_media_upload, multipart flow). Detailed 'Use this when' guidance helps, but an agent could still misselect between compose_post and create_post or between bulk_posts and the individual delete/retry/update operations.

Naming Consistency5/5

Tool names follow a highly consistent verb_noun pattern throughout: create/get/update/delete/list for each resource (posts, media, labels, channel sets, RSS feeds, schedules), plus publish/approve/reject/retry/upload/view. No style mixing or inconsistent casing.

Tool Count1/5

51 tools is an extremely large surface, crossing the calibration's 50+ extreme threshold. While the platform covers many subdomains, this volume is likely to overwhelm agents and makes the toolkit unwieldy for an MCP server.

Completeness4/5

The toolkit provides broad lifecycle coverage: CRUD for posts, media, labels, channel sets, RSS feeds, and schedules, plus publishing, approvals, retries, bulk operations, analytics, quota, channel health, and media upload variants. Minor gaps exist, such as no get_channel single-resource getter and no way to update media labels directly, but agents can work around these.
