nevent_create_short_url

Create a new short URL that redirects to the specified destination. Persists immediately — the short code is active as soon as the call returns. Requires at minimum a valid longUrl. All other fields are optional. Returns the created ShortUrlDTO with: id, shortCode, shortUrl (full redirect URL), longUrl, title, tags, isActive. Use the returned shortCode with nevent_create_bulk_user_short_urls to generate per-user variants. WRITE operation — requires STANDARD or FULL operation mode. In READ_ONLY mode this tool returns an operation_not_permitted error immediately without making any API call.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
tagsNoTags for categorization and filtering. Example: ["campaign", "summer", "2025"]. Use consistent tag names across campaigns.
titleNoDescriptive label for the short URL (max 200 chars). Shown in the admin list view and used for search.
longUrlYesThe full destination URL to redirect to. Must include protocol (https:// or http://). Example: "https://nevent.es/events/summer-festival-2025".
metadataNoArbitrary key-value metadata. Useful for storing campaignId, eventId, or other business identifiers. Example: {"campaignId": "NEV-123", "eventId": "evt-456"}.
expiresAtNoExpiration date/time in ISO 8601 format, e.g. "2025-12-31T23:59:59.000Z". After this date the short URL stops redirecting. Omit for a permanent link.
customShortCodeNoCustom short code (6-8 alphanumeric characters). If omitted, a unique code is auto-generated. Example: "SUMMER". Use nevent_validate_short_code (if available) to check availability first.

A4.7/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

The description adds significant behavioral detail beyond the annotations: persistence is immediate, the short code becomes active upon return, the return DTO shape is listed, and mode-dependent error behavior is disclosed. Annotations only state readOnlyHint=false and destructiveHint=false; the description gives the operational context an agent needs.

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?

Every sentence earns its place: purpose, persistence behavior, required fields, return structure, sibling linkage, and operational mode. The information is front-loaded and compact with no redundant or filler content.

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 there is no output schema, the description correctly enumerates the returned DTO fields. It covers input requirements, side effects, mode restrictions, and a natural downstream usage, leaving no critical gap for an agent deciding whether and how to invoke this tool.

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 coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents each parameter with examples, formats, and constraints. The description adds only that longUrl is minimally required and other fields are optional—both already reflected in the schema's required array—so it provides marginal value beyond the structured data.

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?

The description states a specific verb and resource: 'Create a new short URL that redirects to the specified destination.' It clearly distinguishes this creation tool from the many listing, retrieval, and update siblings such as nevent_update_short_url and nevent_list_short_urls.

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?

It specifies the minimum required input (longUrl), notes that all other fields are optional, and explicitly conditions usage on operation mode: WRITE requires STANDARD or FULL, and READ_ONLY fails fast without an API call. It also points users to nevent_create_bulk_user_short_urls as the downstream tool for per-user variants, providing clear alternatives and sequencing.

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

A3.6/5.0
Disambiguation3/5

Most domain groups are distinct, but the campaign reporting cluster has three tools returning overlapping engagement metrics (get_campaign, get_campaign_metrics, campaign_report), and paid_ads_status vs paid_ads_health have fuzzy boundaries. The detailed descriptions mitigate but do not eliminate the risk of an agent calling the wrong tool.

Naming Consistency3/5

All names use the nevent_ prefix and snake_case, and most CRUD operations follow verb_noun. However, several tools reverse the order or drop the verb entirely (segment_preview, segment_execute, campaign_report, paid_ads_status, analytics_query), making the convention mixed but still readable.

Tool Count1/5

With 59 tools, this is far above the 25+ 'too many' threshold and falls into the 50+ extreme range. The broad domain coverage explains some of the size, but for an agent the set is likely to be overwhelming and harder to navigate than a more focused server.

Completeness3/5

The core marketing workflow (segments, templates, campaign creation, quote, schedule, metrics) is covered, but there is no way to update, cancel, or delete a campaign, and templates and segments lack delete operations. These are notable lifecycle gaps that agents will hit when users want to change or clean up resources.
