Update a Volumeset

update_volumeset
DestructiveIdempotent

Update mutable volumeset fields: description, tags, initialCapacity (for newly-provisioned volumes), snapshot policy, autoscaling, mountOptions. snapshots/autoscaling/mountOptions REPLACE the entire stored object — include every field you want to keep. Filesystem type and performance class are IMMUTABLE — to change either, snapshot first and recreate. customEncryption: CLI cpln apply only. Changing initialCapacity does not resize existing volumes; expand_volumeset grows them.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
gvcYesGVC slug. If the user named none, list_resources (kind "gvc") and let them choose.
orgNoOrganization slug.
nameYesResource name. Immutable: renaming is delete and recreate.
tagsNoAdd or update tags without replacing the full set. Submit an empty list to clear all tags.
snapshotsNoREPLACES the entire snapshot policy: include every field you want to keep. A retentionDuration left out keeps the current one, or 7d when there is none.
autoscalingNoREPLACES the entire autoscaling object — include every field you want to keep (omitted fields are removed).
descriptionNoNew description.
mountOptionsNoREPLACES the entire mountOptions object (shared-filesystem volume sets only) — include every field you want to keep.
removeTagKeysNoTag keys to remove from the resource.
initialCapacityNoUpdate the initialCapacity (note: existing volumes do not shrink — expand_volumeset does hot expansion).
removeSnapshotsNotrue deletes spec.snapshots (stops the automatic snapshot schedule).
removeAutoscalingNotrue deletes spec.autoscaling (volumes stop auto-growing).
removeMountOptionsNotrue deletes spec.mountOptions (reverts to platform mount defaults).

TDQS

A4.9/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Discloses the destructive REPLACE semantics of snapshots/autoscaling/mountOptions (a critical data-loss trap that annotations alone don't convey) and the immutability of filesystem type and performance class. This is rich, non-obvious behavioral context beyond the destructiveHint/idempotentHint annotations.

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?

Front-loads the mutable fields, then the REPLACE caveat, then the immutable/routing notes. Dense but every sentence carries actionable guidance with no filler.

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?

Given an output schema exists, return values need not be explained. The description covers the field mutability matrix, replace semantics, and routing to siblings — everything an agent needs to call it correctly.

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, but the description adds real meaning: replace-vs-merge semantics and the immutable/mutable distinction. It stops short of explaining the remove* toggles, which remain schema-only.

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 specific verb+resource ("Update mutable volumeset fields") and enumerates exactly which fields are mutable. It also distinguishes itself from expand_volumeset by name, so an agent can select it without opening the schema.

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 routes the agent: immutable fields require "snapshot first and recreate," initialCapacity does not resize existing volumes so use expand_volumeset, and customEncryption must go through the CLI. Both when-to-use-this and when-to-use-alternatives are covered.

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