Add a Route to a Domain Listener

add_domain_route
Idempotent

Append a route entry to an existing port listener. Minimal route is {workloadLink}; omit prefix/regex to match /. Routes are matched by prefix (default) or regex; the new route must not collide with an existing one. Use update_domain_route to replace an existing entry.

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
orgNoOrganization slug.
routeYesRoute entry forwarding listener traffic to a workload. Minimal valid route: { "workloadLink": "//gvc/{gvc}/workload/{name}" }. All matchers are optional; omit prefix/regex to match /.
domainYesFully qualified domain name.
portNumberYesExisting listener port number to target.

TDQS

A4.2/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations cover the safety profile (non-read-only, open-world, idempotent, non-destructive), so the description is free to add matching semantics: prefix-by-default vs regex matching, and the collision constraint that governs whether the call succeeds. It still omits any note on auth requirements or side effects on live traffic, keeping it short of a 5.

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 tight sentences: action first, minimal valid payload and matching semantics second, alternative tool last. No filler and nothing buried.

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?

An output schema exists, so return values need not be described, and the deep nested route schema is fully documented. The description supplies the essential routing/collision behavior for a moderately complex mutation tool; only permission/error context 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 description coverage is 100%, so the nested route object and every matcher are already documented in the schema. The description's 'minimal route is {workloadLink}; omit prefix/regex to match /' restates what the schema already says, adding little beyond the baseline.

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?

Opens with a precise verb+resource+scope: 'Append a route entry to an existing port listener.' This clearly separates it from add_domain_port (listener creation) and update_domain_route (replacement), which the description names directly.

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?

Explicitly routes the agent to update_domain_route for replacing an existing entry, and states the precondition that the new route must not collide with an existing one. It does not, however, spell out prerequisites such as required permissions or that the listener must already exist.

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