get_container_feature

Check if a container supports snapshot, clone, or copy features. Specify node, VMID, and feature to verify availability.

Instructions

Check if a feature is available for a container (snapshot, clone, copy).

Args: node: The node name. vmid: The container ID. feature: Feature to check ('snapshot', 'clone', 'copy').

Behavior3/5

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

No annotations provided, so description bears full burden. Describes a read-only check; no side effects mentioned, but behavior is simple and implied. Adequate but not detailed.

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?

Extremely concise: one line for purpose, then parameter listing. No wasted words, front-loaded.

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 the tool's simplicity and presence of an output schema, the description adequately covers purpose, parameters, and valid inputs. Lacks return type details but output schema likely covers it.

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

Parameters4/5

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

Schema coverage is 0%, but description explicitly lists and explains all three parameters, including valid values for 'feature'. Adds significant meaning beyond schema.

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?

Clearly states the action (check), resource (container), and specific features (snapshot, clone, copy). Differentiates from sibling get_container_* tools by focusing on feature availability.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

Implies use before actions like cloning or snapshotting. Does not explicitly state when not to use or provide alternatives, but context is clear.

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