AroFlo: Get QuoteLineItems

aroflo_get_quotelineitems
Read-onlyIdempotent

Retrieve quote line items from AroFlo with filtering, sorting, and joining options to manage project quotes and labor reporting.

Instructions

Query the AroFlo QuoteLineItems zone (GET). Use pipe-delimited WHERE clauses like "and|field|=|value", ORDER clauses like "field|asc", and JOIN areas like "lineitems". where/order/join accept either a single string or an array. mode: data|verbose|debug|raw (default: data). Set compact=true and optionally select=["field","nested.field"] to reduce payload size. See resource "aroflo://docs/api/" (example: "aroflo://docs/api/quotes") for valid fields/values.

Implementation Reference

  • The tool 'aroflo_get_quotelineitems' is dynamically registered in 'src/mcp/tools/get-zones.ts' by iterating over 'AROFLO_ZONES'. The handler is the anonymous function passed to 'server.registerTool'.

Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already establish read-only, idempotent safety. The description adds valuable behavioral context: specific query syntax patterns, payload reduction via 'compact'/'select', and mode defaults ('data'). Does not disclose rate limits, pagination limits, or 'openWorldHint' implications regarding dynamic schemas.

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?

Dense but efficient single-paragraph structure front-loaded with purpose. Syntax examples are embedded without excess verbosity. Could benefit from structural separation (e.g., grouping pagination vs query logic), but every clause conveys necessary information.

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

Completeness3/5

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

Given the existence of an output schema and annotations covering basic safety, the description adequately covers the query DSL. However, for an 18-parameter tool with complex pagination options, the omission of pagination strategy guidance and the relationship between overlapping flags (mode vs verbose/debug/raw booleans) leaves significant gaps.

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?

With 0% schema description coverage, the description compensates partially by explaining 6 parameters (where, order, join, mode, compact, select) including complex syntax. However, it fails to document 12 other parameters, notably the 7 pagination controls (page, pageSize, autoPaginate, maxPages, maxResults, maxItemsTotal, maxItems) which are critical for a query tool.

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 specific action ('Query') and resource ('AroFlo QuoteLineItems zone'), clearly distinguishing from siblings like 'aroflo_get_quotes' by targeting the specific LineItems entity. The '(GET)' suffix reinforces the read-only nature consistent with annotations.

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?

Provides detailed syntax guidance for query construction (pipe-delimited WHERE clauses, JOIN syntax) and references external documentation for valid fields. However, lacks explicit guidance on when to use this versus 'aroflo_get_quotes' or when to prefer 'autoPaginate' over manual pagination.

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