Create clueprint

create_clueprint

Create a new clueprint (reusable video template). A clueprint is a structured file directory with design notes, composition rules, and screenshots that can be used to generate videos.

Use human-readable folder categories: design/ (colors, typography, backgrounds, animation), rules/ (composition, voiceover, editing), screenshots/ (rendered clip previews). See the "Creating Clueprints" section in the system instructions for the full structure.

If source_guide_ids are provided, guide data is automatically extracted clip-by-clip into the clueprint as reference material.

TDQS

A4.4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already indicate not read-only (readOnlyHint=false) and not destructive (destructiveHint=false). The description adds meaningful side-effect context: when source_guide_ids are provided, guide data is automatically extracted clip-by-clip into the clueprint. This goes beyond the annotations and informs the agent of automatic behavior.

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 three dense sentences that are front-loaded with the core purpose. The folder categories (design/, rules/, screenshots/) are specific and useful, and the pointer to system instructions avoids unnecessary duplication. No fluff or redundancy.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

The description covers the created artifact (directory structure), the side effect of source_guide_ids, and points to system instructions for full detail. It omits return value or error behavior, but given no output schema and the tool's straightforward create-once nature, this is a minor gap.

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 adds value for source_guide_ids by explaining the auto-extraction behavior, and it provides domain context for folder categories that relates to the overall purpose, enriching the meaning of the parameters beyond their 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 clearly identifies the tool as creating a clueprint, defined as a 'reusable video template', and distinguishes it from project creation (create_project). It also specifies the internal directory structure, leaving no ambiguity about what the tool produces.

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 description establishes the use case (creating reusable templates) and explains the folder categories and optional source_guide_ids behavior. However, it does not explicitly contrast with sibling tools like create_project or state when not to use this tool, so it lacks explicit exclusions.

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