Move Videos Between Folders

panda_action_move_videos_by_folder
DestructiveIdempotent

Deterministically resolve a source and target folder and move every video from the source into the target in one call. Pass target_folder_ref='root' to move to the root (no folder). Skips videos already being deleted. Free action (no credits). dry_run=true (default) returns a preview of which videos would move.

Tool call template

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

A3.7/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare destructive/idempotent/openWorld, but the description adds genuinely non-obvious behavior: 'Skips videos already being deleted', 'Free action (no credits)', and that dry_run=true yields a preview of which videos would move. It does not cover permissions or what happens to the now-empty source folder.

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?

Four short sentences, front-loaded with the core action, then the 'root' special case, skip behavior, cost, and the dry_run default. Efficient, though the dry_run preview sentence partially duplicates the schema default.

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 destructive mutation with no output schema, the description compensates by explaining the dry_run preview output and the no-credit cost, and annotations cover the safety profile. Missing only auth/permission expectations and the fate of the emptied source folder.

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 four parameters are already documented (including target_folder_ref='root' and dry_run's preview semantics), and the description largely restates those. Baseline 3 applies since the schema carries the load.

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?

States a specific verb (move) and resource (every video in a source folder) with an explicit scope ('every video from the source into the target in one call'), which implicitly separates it from the per-video sibling panda_move_videos. It never names an alternative sibling explicitly, so it stops short of a 5.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines3/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Usage is only implied: the bulk folder-level framing plus the 'root' target hint tell the agent this is the folder-wide move, but there is no explicit when-to-use/when-not or comparison against panda_move_videos or panda_action_delete_folder_videos. Adequate but with clear gaps.

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