unlock_marketplace_items

Destructive

MARKETPLACE items: release lock — clear the lock set by lock_marketplace_items so automatic sync updates the items again. Use this when frozen listings should sync again. Needs confirm:true after the user agrees. Target item_ids or all_items:true.

Tool call template

Replace each placeholder with a value matching the input schema. Only required parameters are included; add optional parameters as needed.

{
  "id": 1,
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "arguments": {
      "marketplace_id": "<marketplace_id>"
    },
    "name": "unlock_marketplace_items"
  }
}

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
confirmNotrue only after the user approved; without it the call returns confirm_required and nothing runs.
item_idsNoitemId values (from list_marketplace_items) to act on. Use this OR all_items.
all_itemsNoApply to every item of the marketplace. Use this OR item_ids.
project_idNo
marketplace_idYesintegrationId of the marketplace (from list_marketplaces).

A3.9/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

The description adds real consequence beyond the annotations: clearing the lock re-enables automatic sync updates. It also restates the confirm gate from the schema. But with destructiveHint=true and idempotentHint=false declared, it does not explain what is risked by unlocking (e.g. queued/overwritten changes) or why the call is non-idempotent.

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-loaded with the resource and action, then the effect, then the usage condition, then the parameters — a sensible ordering with no filler. The telegraphic dash/clause style is slightly clipped but nothing is wasted.

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 5-parameter mutation tool with annotations and no output schema, the description covers what to target, the confirm prerequisite, and the downstream effect. Gaps are minor: no coverage of project_id scoping and no note on partial failures across a batch.

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 coverage is 80%, so the schema already documents confirm, item_ids, all_items and marketplace_id including the OR-exclusivity. The description repeats 'item_ids or all_items:true' and the confirm requirement without adding format or edge-case detail, and leaves project_id (undescribed in the schema) unexplained. Baseline 3.

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?

States a specific verb-plus-resource ('release lock' / 'clear the lock') scoped to marketplace items, and explicitly names the inverse operation lock_marketplace_items so the agent can place it in the lock/unlock pair without opening a schema.

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?

'Use this when frozen listings should sync again' gives a concrete triggering condition and implicitly excludes the locking path. No explicit when-not guidance and it never mentions the sibling unlock_ad_items, but the MARKETPLACE prefix plus the named counterpart keep routing unambiguous.

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