Claim Display

claim_display

Adopts an unclaimed guest or pending display as a managed personal display (permanent ownership transfer, counts against quota). Use only when the user explicitly wants to take over hardware that is already running; for first-time setup prefer pair_by_code. Requires admin scope.

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": {
      "display_id": "<display_id>",

    },
    "name": "claim_display"
  }
}

Input Schema

Name	Required	Description
`display_id`	Yes	The short ID of the pending, guest or demo display to claim. This is the hardware or temporary ID shown on the device.
`access_token`	No	Optional bearer token; prefer session_request_id.
`profile_name`	Yes	Friendly name to assign to the newly claimed display. Non-empty string. Example: 'Reception Kiosk'.
`session_request_id`	No	Session handle from create_auth_session; pass it on every authenticated call.

Output Schema

Name	Required	Description	Default
`name`	No
`profileId`	No
`linkedHardwareId`	No

TDQS

A4.5/5.0

Behavior4/5

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

Annotations only provide generic false hints, so the description carries the burden. It discloses permanence ('permanent ownership transfer'), quota impact, and admin scope requirement. It does not contradict annotations; no conflict with destructiveHint=false since a transfer is not necessarily destructive.

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?

Two sentences, front-loaded with action and consequences, then usage guidance and auth requirement. No filler or repetition of schema text.

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?

With an output schema present and all parameters documented, the description covers the essential behavioral, usage, and auth context. It even names the alternative tool to keep the agent on the right path. No critical gap for invoking correctly.

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% and each parameter already has a descriptive schema comment, so the baseline is 3. The description reaffirms that display_id refers to an unclaimed/pending display and profile_name is the new friendly name but adds little beyond the schema.

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 ('Adopts') and resource ('unclaimed guest or pending display'), and clarifies the result ('permanent ownership transfer, counts against quota'). It is clearly distinguishable from the sibling pair_by_code, which is called out by name.

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?

Explicitly instructs when to use ('only when the user explicitly wants to take over hardware already running') and when not to ('for first-time setup prefer pair_by_code'). Also states required permission (admin scope).

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