Rename a dashboard

rename_dashboard
DestructiveIdempotent

Rename a dashboard. Pass run_id from start_setup_run so this undoes together with the rest of the setup; leave it out (never "") to start a new chat run, whose run_id is returned and should go on every later change.

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": {
      "dashboard_id": "<dashboard_id>",
      "name": "<name>"
    },
    "name": "rename_dashboard"
  }
}

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
nameYesThe new name.
run_idNoThe setup run this change belongs to, from start_setup_run. Omit to start a new chat run (its id is returned).
projectNoProject ID, from list_projects. Required when this connection covers more than one project; may be left out when it covers one (and with an API key, which belongs to one project).
dashboard_idYesDashboard ID, from list_dashboards.

A4.5/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare this as a non-read-only, idempotent, destructive mutation. The description adds meaningful context beyond them: the run_id workflow, undo grouping with setup, and propagation of the returned run_id to later changes. It does not explain the destructiveHint itself, but with annotations present that is a smaller gap.

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 front-loaded with the action and then gives dense but relevant run_id guidance. Every sentence earns its place, with no filler or repetition.

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?

Given the rich schema and annotations, the description covers the important non-obvious behavior needed to call this correctly: the run_id workflow and its relationship to setup undo. Return values are not broadly needed, and the one relevant return value, run_id, is mentioned.

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?

Schema coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents the parameters. The description still adds useful run_id semantics beyond the schema: omit rather than pass an empty string, and reuse the returned run_id on every later change. Other parameters rely appropriately on the schema descriptions.

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 verb and resource: "Rename a dashboard." It is immediately distinguishable from siblings such as rename_funnel by the dashboard resource, so an agent knows what operation this performs without opening the 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?

It gives clear conditional guidance for run_id: pass it from start_setup_run to group the rename with setup undo, and omit it to start a new chat run. It explicitly says never pass an empty string and that the returned run_id should be reused later, though it does not discuss tool-level alternatives beyond the obvious dashboard resource.

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