clio_review_only

Read-onlyIdempotent

Execute read-only Clio connector operations routed through the exact project/account authority. Use it to retrieve and review Clio data without modifying records.

Instructions

Clio connector operation review_only (platform tool clio.review_only).

Routes only through the exact project/account governed connector authority.

Args: arguments: JSON string of arguments for the connector operation. project_id: Authenticated Project UUID. project_ref: Exact project correlation reference. connector_account_ref: Project-bound connector account alias. idempotency_key: Stable business-action identity. effect: Required and must be read; Spring verifies it. approval_ref: Approved platform task UUID when resuming a write.

TDQS

B3.3/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnly, idempotent, and non-destructive behavior. The description adds useful context beyond that: routing only through the exact project/account governed connector authority, and Spring enforcing that `effect` must be `read`. The `approval_ref` note about resuming a write is slightly confusing for a read-only tool, but it does not contradict the annotations.

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, front-loaded with the operation identity and routing constraint, and uses a scannable args list. Minor waste includes the redundant platform-tool parenthetical and the `approval_ref` write note that feels out of place in a read-only tool.

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?

Output schema covers return shape and annotations cover the safety profile, while the parameter list is usable. However, the description never gives a plain-language account of what the `review_only` operation does or when an agent should call it, leaving a real selection gap among the many sibling Clio tools.

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?

Schema description coverage is 0%, so the description carries the burden of explaining parameters. It provides a meaningful one-line semantic for each parameter, such as `project_id` being the Authenticated Project UUID and `idempotency_key` being the stable business-action identity. `arguments` and `project_ref` remain somewhat underspecified, but the description compensates well for an empty schema.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose3/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description identifies the tool as the `review_only` Clio connector operation and adds a routing constraint, but never states what the operation actually does or returns. The behavior is left to be inferred from the name and the `effect: read` parameter, and it does not distinguish the tool from sibling Clio wrappers like `clio_request` or `clio_api_request`.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

No when-to-use guidance is provided. There is no mention of alternatives, conditions for selection, or exclusions relative to the many other Clio tools. The governance-routing sentence describes scope, not usage context.

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