Update Alert Settings

update_alert_settings
Destructive

Turn mention email alerts on or off and set how often the digest is sent. enabled is required on every call. cadenceMinutes must be one of 15, 30, 60, 120, 180, 240, 720, 1440, otherwise 400 "Invalid alert frequency for your plan"; a value faster than the plan floor is silently raised to the floor. Both settings are replaced on every call: omitting cadenceMinutes resets it to the fastest cadence the plan allows, so pass the current value when only toggling enabled. Use get_alert_settings for availableCadences before, and to confirm the applied cadence after. Returns the resolved settings.

TDQS

A4.9/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations mark this destructive (readOnlyHint false, destructiveHint true), and the description justifies why by disclosing the full-replace semantics and the reset-to-floor behavior on omission. It also reveals the plan-floor silent clamping and the precise 400 error string, which are not derivable from any structured field.

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?

Front-loads the action, then the hard requirements, then the failure modes, then the sibling routing. Every clause carries operational payload: validation set, error text, clamping, reset-on-omit warning, and the pre/post verification pattern.

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?

An output schema exists, yet the description still closes the loop with 'Returns the resolved settings,' which correctly signals that the applied cadence may differ from the requested one. With annotations, schema, and output schema all present, nothing needed to invoke this correctly is missing.

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 baseline is 3; the description still adds value by listing the allowed cadence values (the schema has no enum entry), quoting the 400 error, and describing silent clamping to the plan floor. It stops short of restating workspaceId behavior, which the schema already covers thoroughly.

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 (turn on/off, set cadence) and resource (mention email alert settings), and explicitly names the sibling get_alert_settings as the complementary read tool. An agent can distinguish it from update_website or update_mention_status without opening any schema.

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

Usage Guidelines5/5

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

Explicit routing: use get_alert_settings for availableCadences before and to confirm after; pass the current cadenceMinutes when only toggling enabled. The critical trap (both settings are replaced on every call) is stated as a warning rather than left to inference.

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