planning_context

Consolidate planning context into one prioritized bundle—related ADRs, parallel open flows, similar done flows, forward-intents, architecture excerpts, and drift warnings—so you can start planning without scattered searches.

Instructions

Get a compact context bundle for planning a flow. Returns related ADRs, parallel open flows, similar done flows, forward-intents, architecture-module excerpts and drift warnings — all in one call, priority- scored, budgeted under ~5500 tokens.

Call this AT THE START of planning instead of scattering wiki_search/adr_list/ flow_list calls. Use the markdown output directly as context; use the JSON sections if you want to cross-reference specific items.

Tool call template

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

{
  "id": 1,
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "arguments": {
      "flowId": "<flowId>"
    },
    "name": "planning_context"
  }
}

A4.4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. It discloses returned content types, token budget, and priority-scoring. Does not mention latency or failure modes but is transparent about what it does.

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 concise paragraphs, first sentence a clear action, second sentence lists contents, second paragraph provides usage instructions. No wasted words.

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?

Given one required param, no output schema, and no enums, the description covers return format, usage, and applicability. Some minor gaps like error handling, but overall adequate.

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?

Single parameter flowId is described in schema with sufficient detail. Tool description adds no extra semantic info beyond schema, so baseline 3 applies given 100% schema coverage.

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 clearly states 'Get a compact context bundle for planning a flow' and lists specific contents (ADRs, parallel open flows, etc.). It distinguishes from siblings by advising to use this instead of scattering multiple calls.

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?

Explicitly says 'Call this AT THE START of planning instead of scattering wiki_search/adr_list/flow_list calls.' Provides clear when-to-use guidance and how to use the output.

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