create_object_storage

Creates a new object storage in your Contabo account for a selected region and space allocation, enabling you to add storage capacity and resize it later.

Instructions

Create a new object storage [POST /v1/object-storages] Create / purchase a new object storage in your account. Please note that you can only buy one object storage per location. You can actually increase the object storage space via POST to /v1/object-storages/{objectStorageId}/resize

A3.7/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already state readOnly=false, openWorld=true, idempotent=false, and destructive=false. The description adds useful behavioral context beyond annotations: creation is a purchase that may incur cost, only one object storage per location is allowed, and space increases should use the resize endpoint rather than this tool.

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?

The description is short and front-loaded with the core action and endpoint. The repeated "Create a new object storage" phrasing is slightly redundant, but the one-per-location note and resize path are relevant and efficiently stated.

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?

For a create/purchase mutation with rich schema descriptions and annotations, the description covers the key agent-facing concerns: what it creates, that it is a purchase, the one-per-location limit, and where to go for resizing. It does not describe the response shape, but the schema and annotations carry enough support that this is a minor gap.

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?

Schema coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents all parameters in detail. The description lightly reinforces that region/location and purchased space matter, especially via the one-per-location rule, but it does not add syntax or constraints beyond what the schema provides.

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?

The description gives a specific verb and resource: "Create / purchase a new object storage." It also adds the important constraint that only one object storage can be bought per location, though it does not explicitly name sibling tools such as retrieve_object_storage or upgrade_object_storage for differentiation.

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?

Usage is implied by "Create / purchase a new object storage in your account" and clarified by the one-per-location constraint. It also points to a resize endpoint for increasing space, but it does not explicitly compare this tool with alternatives like upgrade_object_storage or update_object_storage.

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