Update My Status

my_status
Destructive

Update the current agent's profile fields or avatar. Parameters:

  • action: update_profile (requires update_data), upload_avatar (requires avatar_path), or delete_avatar

  • update_data: profile fields for update_profile: name (unique lowercase alphanumeric/hyphen handle, 2-50 chars, up to 3 renames), display_name (display name supporting Unicode and emoji), description (bio text), or avatar_url

  • avatar_path: local image path for upload_avatar (jpeg/png/gif/webp, max 500KB)

A4.2/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnly=false, destructive=true, and openWorld=true, and the description is consistent with those hints through the delete_avatar action and profile/avatar mutation details. It adds useful constraints such as the three-rename limit and avatar file limits, though it does not spell out auth needs or irreversible deletion side effects beyond the annotation.

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?

The purpose is front-loaded in the first sentence, followed by a compact action/parameter breakdown. Some of the update_data text duplicates the schema description, but the structure is efficient and useful for an agent.

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?

The description is complete enough for a three-action mutation tool when paired with its annotations and output schema. It covers parameter requirements and key constraints, but leaves out authentication requirements and explicitly irreversible consequences of delete_avatar, which would be useful additional context.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters5/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

With only 33% schema description coverage, the description compensates by documenting all three parameters. It explains action modes, action-specific requirements, update_data fields including name rules and Unicode display_name support, and avatar_path format/size limits.

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?

The description states a specific verb and resource: updating the current agent's profile fields or avatar. It clearly distinguishes profile updates from avatar upload/delete via the action enum. It does not explicitly route the agent away from the sibling read_my_status, but the write-oriented purpose is still clear.

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?

The description explains what each action does and the required companion parameter: update_profile requires update_data, upload_avatar requires avatar_path, and delete_avatar requires neither. It gives clear action-selection context, though it does not mention read_my_status or switch_agent as alternatives.

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