cf_cname_flattening_set
Destructive

Set CNAME flattening mode at zone level: root_only (flatten at root) or all (flatten all CNAMEs).

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
modeYes
zoneYesZone name (e.g. your-tenant.com) or zone ID
context_idNoOptional explicit Connection Hub work context (ctx_*). Omit to use the conversation's active workspace; global Hub tools ignore it.
account_slugNoCloudflare account slug. Required when the workspace has multiple accounts and the zone is not yet cataloged.
environment_slugNoCloud Catalog environment used as an account-routing preference when no zone is provided.

Output Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
okYes
dataYes
contractVersionYes
dataSchemaVersionYes

TDQS

C2.9/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnly=false, destructive=true, and openWorld=true, so the safety profile is known from structured data. The description adds nothing beyond that: it never warns that this mutates live zone DNS behavior, whether the change is reversible, how propagation works, or what permissions are needed.

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?

One tight sentence with the operation front-loaded and the two modes clarified parenthetically. No wasted words, though the brevity partly reflects missing content rather than disciplined editing.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness2/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a destructive, open-world mutation on production DNS with five parameters and no annotation-level detail about impact, the description leaves out effect, prerequisites, and side effects. The output schema covers return values, but the behavioral side of the call is under-described.

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 80%, so the baseline is 3. The description does add meaning for the mode enum ('flatten at root' vs 'flatten all CNAMEs'), which the schema only lists as bare values, but it says nothing about zone/account_slug/environment_slug routing behavior beyond the schema text.

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 ('Set CNAME flattening mode at zone level') and disambiguates the enum values, so the operation is instantly recognizable and distinguishable from the sibling read tool cf_cname_flattening_get. It stops short of naming that sibling explicitly.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

No when-to-use, when-not-to-use, or prerequisite guidance. An agent is not told to inspect the current mode first via cf_cname_flattening_get, nor when root_only should be preferred over all.

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