One film or separate shots

set_studio_video_intent
Idempotent

film (the default): one edited film. pack: separate shots they can use one by one (an asset pack) — the plan then lists shots and approve_studio_video_plan can buy only the ones they tick (shots). A film made from their own video stays one film. Set it before the director plans. Free.

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
intentYesfilm = one film; pack = separate shots
user_goalNoOptional: the user's goal behind this call, in one short sentence of plain words (e.g. "add a page so customers can book tables"). No names, emails or other personal details.
project_idYesProject id from create_motion_project. The bare project id or the library id ("studio-video:<uuid>" from list_creations / find_creation) both work.

TDQS

A4.1/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare this is a non-read-only, idempotent, non-destructive mutation. Beyond that, the description adds meaningful behavior: `pack` makes the plan list shots and lets `approve_studio_video_plan` buy only ticked shots, a film from the user's own video stays one film, and the call is free. It does not explain whether an existing plan can be changed afterward.

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 compact and front-loads the key `film` versus `pack` distinction, then adds timing and cost notes. It is appropriately sized, though the use of backticks and parenthetical clauses makes it slightly denser than ideal.

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?

For a three-parameter setter with full schema coverage, annotations, and no output schema, the description supplies the essential context: mode meanings, default, timing, downstream planning effect, special case, and cost. An agent has enough information to call it correctly without needing return-value details.

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?

With 100% schema description coverage, the baseline is 3, but the description adds real semantic detail for the `intent` enum: default `film`, `pack` behavior, downstream purchasing behavior, and the special case for user-supplied video. It does not add meaning for `project_id` or `user_goal`, but the schema already documents those fully.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly defines the two intent modes: `film` is one edited film and `pack` is separate shots as an asset pack. It explains the default and the downstream effect on the plan, though it does not explicitly state the verb 'sets the studio video intent' and relies on the tool name/title for the action.

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 gives an explicit timing instruction: 'Set it before the director plans,' which tells the agent when this must be called. It also notes that the action is free, adding useful context, but it does not name an alternative tool or condition for when not to use this one.

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