Update Node

clipform_update_node
DestructiveIdempotent

Update one or more existing nodes' text, type, config, or options. Pass multiple updates in one call instead of separate tool calls. Requires node IDs (returned by clipform_create_form, clipform_add_node, or clipform_get_form). Does not change node positions in the flow. All type definitions and config schemas are derived from @vid-master/config (node-types).

  10. First observed

TDQS

A3.6/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare destructiveHint=true, idempotentHint=true, and readOnlyHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds that node positions are untouched and where ID sources come from, but does not warn that passing 'options' replaces the entire set or that a type change discards the stored config, both of which are destruction-relevant.

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?

Four tight sentences, front-loaded with the capability and batching rationale before the ID prerequisite and the positional exclusion. No filler, though the trailing config-source sentence is somewhat dense.

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?

With an output schema and annotations present, the description need not explain returns or safety. It covers batch semantics, ID provenance, and points to clipform_get_guide and @vid-master/config for per-type shapes, leaving little an agent needs but lacks.

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 schema already documents form_id, updates, context and every nested field including merge semantics. The description's only added framing is that node IDs come from create/add/get calls, which is marginal beyond the schema.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

States a specific verb and resource ('Update one or more existing nodes') and enumerates the mutable aspects (text, type, config, options). It does not explicitly differentiate itself from nearby siblings like clipform_update_form or clipform_set_logic, so it stops short of a 5.

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 explicit batching guidance ('Pass multiple updates in one call instead of separate tool calls') and an exclusion ('Does not change node positions in the flow'). It omits when to prefer a sibling such as clipform_set_logic for logic changes, so no explicit alternative routing.

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