Getdeploysforentity

getDeploysForEntity

List all deployments for a specific catalog entity. Returns deployment history including timestamps, environments, SHAs, and deployment types in paginated format.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema

Name	Required	Description
`page`	Yes	Page number to return, 0-indexed. Default 0.
`context`	Yes	Explain why you're invoking this tool now and how its output will be used. Then state how this call supports your overall objective and fits into your broader plan across all tool calls (e.g., why this tool vs. others, and what step it unblocks). Never share any personal details or sensitive information.
`tagOrId`	Yes	Entity identifier - can be a tag or CID
`pageSize`	Yes	Number of results to return per page, between 1 and 1000. Default 250.
`session_id`	Yes	Session continuity handle, one of two values: the ses_ ID issued for the task underway, or start. This server cannot link your calls between requests on its own, so session continuity travels in this parameter instead. If you were handed a session_id for this task — for example by the agent that spawned you — send that exact value from your first call. Otherwise send start on your first call; the server will issue an opaque correlation ID in the mcp_session field of the result, or in a text block at the start of the result beginning [session_id issued. Then send that exact ses_ value on every later call and hand it to any subagents working the same task. start always begins a new, unrelated task — never send it mid-task. If you send a value this server does not recognize, the result reports it: mcp_session.status of unrecognized, or a text block beginning [session_id unrecognized; re-send the ID issued for this task, or start if none was issued yet. Never invent a ses_ value.

A3.6/5.0

Behavior3/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description must carry the burden of behavioral disclosure. It states the operation is a list (implying read-only) and mentions pagination, but does not disclose error behaviors, rate limits, or any side effects. It does not explicitly state that it is non-mutating, nor what happens if the entity is not found, which is a moderate gap for a tool with no annotation coverage.

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 two sentences with no filler. The purpose is front-loaded in the first sentence, and the second sentence adds return details and pagination. Every word earns its place, making it highly concise and easy to parse.

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?

Given there is no output schema, the description reasonably explains what the response contains (timestamps, environments, SHAs, deployment types) and mentions pagination. However, it does not describe the exact structure of the paginated response (e.g., how to get the next page, whether a next-page token is provided), nor does it mention error conditions. For a read-only list tool, this is largely adequate, but the lack of pagination mechanics is a minor gap.

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%, so the baseline is 3. The description does not add any parameter-specific meaning beyond the schema; it only mentions the output fields, not the inputs. The parameters (tagOrId, pageSize, page, session_id, context) are already documented in the schema, so the description adds no additional value here.

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 states the verb 'List' with the resource 'deployments' and the scope 'for a specific catalog entity'. It also lists the return fields (timestamps, environments, SHAs, deployment types) and pagination, which distinguishes it from sibling tools like searchDeploys (search across deployments) and listDeployEnvironments (environments only).

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives. With many sibling tools like searchDeploys, getEntityDetails, or listDeployEnvironments, the description gives no criteria for selection, leaving the agent to infer from the name and schema alone.

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