TracePass products

tracepass_products
Destructive

Manage the TracePass product catalogue. A product is the catalogue layer — one product can have many passports (one per serialised unit). Products are not billable on their own.

Actions (pass via action, with args):

  • list — args: { page?, limit? (≤100), category?, status?, search? }. Read-only.

  • get — args: { id }. Read-only.

  • create — args: { name, model, category, description? }. category is one of: battery, textile, electronics, construction, steel, detergents, paints-coatings, packaging, furniture, tyres, jewelry, toys, fmcg.

  • update — args: { id, name?, model?, description? }; pass at least one field to change.

  • create_batch — args: { products: [ { name, model, category, description? }, … ] }, up to 100. Partial-success: the response carries a per-item status, so some items can be created while others error. The whole batch consumes N writes upfront; if that would exceed the daily cap NOTHING is created (429).

  • archive — args: { id }. Soft-archive a product. Blocked with 409 while any non-archived passport still references it — archive those passports first. This is reversible and is NOT deletion.

  5. First observed

TDQS

A4.6/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Goes well beyond the annotations: discloses partial-success semantics for create_batch, that the whole batch consumes N writes upfront and returns 429 with nothing created if the daily cap would be exceeded, and that archive is a soft, reversible state change blocked by 409 while passports reference it. It also clarifies the product is not billable on its own, which is genuinely useful behavioural context.

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?

Front-loads the domain concept, then uses a scannable action-by-action bullet layout with zero filler sentences. Slight redundancy in restating the category enum already present in the schema keeps it from a 5.

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?

For a multi-action tool with nested args and an output schema, the description covers everything an agent needs before calling: which action to pass, what args each requires, safety profile of reads vs archive, and failure modes. Return shapes are left to the output schema, appropriately.

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 description coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3, and the description adds meaning the schema lacks — the 'pass at least one field to change' rule on update, the limit ≤100 constraint, and the per-action required-field map. The category enum is duplicated from the schema rather than extended.

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 the specific resource (TracePass product catalogue) and enumerates six concrete actions with their verbs, while explicitly distinguishing the catalogue layer from passports ('one product can have many passports'). An agent can tell this apart from tracepass_passports without opening either 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?

Gives per-action guidance: list/get marked read-only, update requires at least one changed field, create_batch capped at 100, and archive blocked with 409 while non-archived passports reference the product. It does not explicitly route the agent to a sibling (e.g. when to manage passports instead), so it falls short of full when/when-not coverage.

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