Bulk Create Trackers

bulk_create_trackers

Creates up to 100 trackers in one request. Each tracker object accepts the same fields as create_tracker — see that tool for field details. Not fully idempotent: retrying a failed bulk request may partially create trackers. Returns counts of created, ignored (duplicate), and failed trackers plus per-item details.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
trackersYesArray of tracker objects to create (minimum 1, maximum 100).

Output Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
dataNoPer-item outcome, in submission order. Null when status is error.
errorNoRequest-level error. Null unless the whole request failed.
statusNosuccess (all created or already existing) | partial (successes and errors) | error (all failed, or a request-level error).
summaryNoPer-request counts. Null when status is error.

TDQS

A4.5/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

The description goes beyond the annotations by explicitly warning that the operation is not fully idempotent and that retries may partially create trackers. It also discloses the return shape—counts of created, ignored/duplicate, and failed trackers plus per-item details—which is valuable behavioral context that annotations alone do not provide.

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?

Three sentences carry exactly the necessary information: the batch capability, the relationship to create_tracker, and critical idempotency/return behavior. Every sentence earns its place, and the most important limit is front-loaded.

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 input schema and the existence of an output schema, the description covers the key operational caveat (partial creation on retry), the size limit, duplicate handling, and the return summary. Nothing essential for calling this tool correctly is missing.

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 100%, so the schema already documents the 'trackers' array and its item fields. The description adds a helpful cross-reference to create_tracker for field details but does not enrich parameter meaning beyond the schema, so the baseline of 3 is appropriate.

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 opens with a specific verb and resource: 'Creates up to 100 trackers in one request.' It clearly differentiates this from the sibling create_tracker by emphasizing the batch nature and the 100-item limit, so an agent can tell it apart immediately.

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?

The 'in one request' and 'up to 100' language clearly positions this tool for batch creation, and the reference to create_tracker for field details gives context about its relationship to the single-create tool. It does not explicitly state 'use create_tracker for a single tracker and this for multiple trackers,' but the use case is clear enough.

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