Import a setlist from the vault

import_setlist

Import a setlist note to resolve and build each track's recipe into the project, pre-staging visuals for a show. Dry run to validate first.

Instructions

Read a setlist note (frontmatter tracks: an array of recipe ids, or {title, recipe, preset, bpm, notes} objects) and build each track's recipe into the project — pre-staging a show's visuals. Recipes resolve against built-in and vault recipes. Use dry_run to validate first. Requires TDMCP_VAULT_PATH.

Input Schema

Behavior4/5

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

Adds value beyond annotations by explaining the pre-staging of visuals and recipe resolution. Does not contradict annotations; destructiveHint=false is consistent with building behavior.

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 concise sentences that front-load the main action and provide essential usage guidance without extraneous words.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness3/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Adequately describes the tool's purpose and process, but lacks information about return values or success feedback, which would be helpful given no output schema.

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 already covers all parameters with descriptions; the description adds general context but no additional parameter-specific meaning beyond what the schema provides.

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?

Description clearly states it reads a setlist note and builds tracks into the project, distinguishing it from sibling tools like apply_recipe by specifying the setlist context.

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?

Provides clear usage context: use dry_run to validate first, and requires TDMCP_VAULT_PATH. However, it does not explicitly compare to alternatives or specify when not 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.
