Extract audio

extract_audio

Extracts the audio from an uploaded video into a separate project audio asset. The result includes its storage key; extraction alone does not place the audio or the video's picture in the edit.

Tool call template

Replace each placeholder with a value matching the input schema. Only required parameters are included; add optional parameters as needed.

TDQS

A3.5/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare non-read-only, non-destructive, non-idempotent, closed-world. The description adds real value by disclosing the outcome shape (a separate asset with a storage key) and the scope limit (nothing is placed in the edit). It does not address what happens if the same video is extracted twice, given idempotentHint=false.

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 sentences, zero padding, with the primary action stated first and the important scope caveat second. Every clause carries information.

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?

No output schema exists, and the description compensates by saying the result includes its storage key. Combined with the explicit non-placement caveat, an agent knows the outcome and its limits.

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

Parameters2/5

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

Schema description coverage is only 33%: only project_id is documented, while asset_key and the `part` enum (all/music/voice) are bare. The description says nothing about any parameter, so it fails to explain what 'part' actually selects or that asset_key identifies the source upload.

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 (extracts audio from an uploaded video into a project audio asset) and the phrase 'extraction alone does not place the audio ... in the edit' implicitly separates it from add_music/insert_media style siblings. It never names a sibling explicitly, so an agent must infer the boundary rather than read it.

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?

The line 'extraction alone does not place the audio or the video's picture in the edit' implies a follow-up placement step, which is genuine usage context. However, no alternative tool is named (e.g. separate_music vs extract_audio), and there is no statement of prerequisites such as the video already being uploaded.

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