desk_list_agents

Read-only

Lists all SautiDesk agents in the workspace and their live availability states. Pages 100 at a time: pass next_cursor back as cursor.

Tool call template

This tool declares no required parameters. Add optional parameters from the input schema as needed.

{
  "id": 1,
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "arguments": {},
    "name": "desk_list_agents"
  }
}

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
limitNopage size (default and max 100)
cursorNonext_cursor from the previous page
purposeNoRequired on tools that read data or reports; recommended on every tool. One sentence: what you are doing and why (for example "finding this caller's open ticket to answer them"). Building a report, dashboard, analytics or an export is a SautiDesk Pro feature done by the report tools, not by pulling records.

A3.8/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare a safe, read-only, closed-world list operation, so the bar is lower; the description still adds useful behavior: results are unscoped across the workspace and the response carries live availability state. It also documents pagination size and the cursor round-trip, though it says nothing about ordering, total counts, or what an 'agent' object contains.

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?

Two short sentences, no filler, with the resource scope front-loaded and the pagination mechanics immediately after. Nothing is redundant or 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?

For a read-only, three-parameter list tool with full schema coverage and no output schema, the description covers scope, returned state, and paging adequately. The remaining gap is sibling disambiguation against list_agents and get_agent, which matters given how many similarly named agent tools exist.

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 limit, cursor, and purpose in detail; the baseline of 3 applies. The description reinforces the cursor loop ('pass next_cursor back as cursor') but adds no format or constraint details beyond the schema and is silent on the purpose parameter.

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 ('Lists all SautiDesk agents in the workspace') and adds the returned attribute ('live availability states'), which is more than a restatement of the name. It does not, however, distinguish itself from near-identical siblings such as list_agents or get_agent, leaving an agent to guess which one to call.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

Usage is only implied: an agent can infer you call this when you need a roster with current availability. There is no explicit when-to-use or when-not-to-use statement, and no routing to alternatives like list_agents, get_agent, or list_agent_tools.

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