Generate art from a moodboard note

generate_from_moodboard

Reads a moodboard note's technique and palette hints, then builds a matching generative system in TouchDesigner.

Instructions

Read a moodboard note (frontmatter technique/palette/colors/speed + a prose description) and create a matching generative system via create_generative_art. Best-effort: the palette is a hint. Requires TDMCP_VAULT_PATH.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
noteYesMoodboard note: a vault path, or a name resolved against the Moodboards/ folder.
parent_pathNoCOMP to build the generative system in./project1
techniqueNoOverride the technique (otherwise the note's `technique` frontmatter, else fractal).
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations (readOnlyHint=false, destructiveHint=false, openWorldHint=true) are consistent. The description adds behavioral context: 'Best-effort: the palette is a hint' acknowledges imprecision, and 'Requires TDMCP_VAULT_PATH' discloses a prerequisite. No contradiction.

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 extremely concise: two sentences cover purpose, caveat, and requirement. Every word earns its place, with no redundancy.

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 absence of an output schema, the description does not explain return values. It mentions the note format and requirement, but does not describe error handling or validation. For a tool that reads and interprets a note, minor completeness gaps exist.

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?

Schema coverage is 100% (all parameters have descriptions). The description adds value by clarifying how 'note' resolves (vault path or name against Moodboards/ folder), explaining technique defaults, and describing the note format with frontmatter fields.

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 that the tool reads a moodboard note (listing specific frontmatter fields) and creates a matching generative system via create_generative_art. It specifies the verb 'create' and resource 'generative system', distinguishing it from generic create tools.

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?

The description implies usage when a moodboard note is available, but does not explicitly state when not to use or mention alternatives. However, it is clear that this is a high-level tool that delegates to create_generative_art, providing sufficient context for selection.

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