List agentic-os role presets

list_presets
Read-onlyIdempotent

List available role presets (developer, QA, architect, etc.) that determine governance files and approval levels. Use to discover valid role names before planning an install.

Instructions

List the agentic-os role presets — the named role bundles (developer, qa, architect, devops, and so on) that decide which governance files an install scaffolds and how much human approval it demands. Use it to discover the valid role names before calling plan_install, or to compare what roles differ on; each entry carries a uri you can read for the preset in full. Takes no arguments and always returns every preset. Read-only and idempotent.

Input Schema

Output Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
presetsYesEvery role preset in the bundle, ordered by role name. Never empty in a healthy install — an empty list means the preset directory failed to load and is returned as an error instead.
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint and idempotentHint true; description confirms 'Read-only and idempotent'. Adds context that presets decide governance files and approval demands, and each entry carries a URI.

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?

Three sentences with no waste. Front-loaded with purpose and examples. Every sentence adds value.

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?

Given no parameters and presence of output schema, the description covers purpose, usage, behavior, and output structure (each entry has a URI). Adequate for a simple list tool.

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?

Input schema is empty; description explicitly says 'Takes no arguments'. Since there are 0 parameters, this adds the necessary clarity beyond the 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?

The description clearly states 'List the agentic-os role presets' with examples like developer, qa, architect. It distinguishes from sibling plan_install by noting its use before that call.

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 states 'Use it to discover the valid role names before calling plan_install' and 'to compare what roles differ on'. Provides clear context for when to use this tool.

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