point_camera_at

Point a camera at a target object or a specific XYZ location using a Track To constraint.

Instructions

Point a camera at an object or a specific location using a Track To constraint.

Args: camera_name: Name of the camera object. target: Name of the target object to point at. Mutually exclusive with location. location: XYZ location to point at as [x, y, z]. Mutually exclusive with target.

Returns: Confirmation dict.

Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries full burden. It mentions 'using a Track To constraint' but does not disclose details like whether it adds or modifies a constraint, what happens to existing constraints, permission requirements, or potential side effects. The lack of behavioral context is a significant gap for a mutation tool.

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?

The description is concise and well-structured. It front-loads the purpose in one sentence, then lists parameter descriptions in a clear docstring format. Every sentence is necessary and efficient.

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?

The description explains the parameters and output well. It mentions the Track To constraint, which gives context. However, it could be more complete by stating that it adds a constraint to the camera object, which is implied but not explicit. Given the presence of an output schema, the description is fairly complete for a tool with 3 parameters and moderate complexity.

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

Parameters5/5

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

The description adds significant value beyond the input schema, which has 0% schema description coverage. It explains each parameter: camera_name as 'Name of the camera object', target and location with mutual exclusivity, and location format as '[x, y, z]'. This clarifies meaning and usage far beyond the schema's minimal titles.

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 the tool's function: point a camera at an object or location using a Track To constraint. It distinguishes from sibling tools like set_camera_property or set_active_camera by specifying the action of aiming via constraint.

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?

While the description implies usage for aiming cameras, it does not explicitly compare to alternatives (e.g., set_camera_property, set_camera_from_view) or mention when not to use this tool. No exclusions or prerequisites are provided.

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