Get Bookmarks

get_bookmarks
Read-only

Retrieve spatial bookmarks from a QGIS project, including each bookmark’s name, group, extent, and CRS, so you can review saved map locations and coordinate systems.

Instructions

Get spatial bookmarks from the project. Each bookmark has a name, group, extent (xmin/ymin/xmax/ymax), and CRS.

TDQS

A4.4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations provide readOnlyHint=true. The description adds the structure of returned bookmarks (name, group, extent, CRS). No contradictions.

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?

Single sentence, front-loaded with verb and resource, no wasted words. Perfectly concise.

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 no parameters and an existing output schema, the description adequately explains what the tool returns. Could mention that an empty list is returned if no bookmarks exist, but not critical.

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?

With zero parameters, schema coverage is 100%. Description adds meaning about the return structure, which is helpful beyond the empty 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 the tool retrieves spatial bookmarks from the project and enumerates the fields (name, group, extent, CRS), distinguishing it from siblings like add_bookmark and remove_bookmark.

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?

Context is clear: use to get existing bookmarks. Sibling tools add_bookmark and remove_bookmark handle other operations. No explicit exclusions needed given the simplicity.

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