slack_views_open

DestructiveIdempotent

Open a Slack modal view via the governed connector, providing project, account, and idempotency context for secure, verifiable execution.

Instructions

Slack connector operation views_open (platform tool slack.views_open).

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: Claimed read or write effect; Spring verifies it. approval_ref: Approved platform task UUID when resuming a write.

  2. First observedv0.1.0

TDQS

D1.5/5.0
Behavior1/5

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

The description does not state whether this operation opens a modal, requires a trigger ID, or has side effects. Annotations mark it not read-only and destructive, but the text gives no behavioral detail and no explanation of why the destructive hint is set.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness3/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The text is short and includes an Args list, so it avoids verbosity and disorganization. However, its brevity comes at the cost of meaningful content; the structure is clean but mostly empty.

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

Completeness1/5

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

The tool has non-trivial Slack semantics and a real output schema, but the description gives no context about expected arguments, response, or operational constraints. An agent cannot safely construct a valid `arguments` payload from the information provided.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters1/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

The schema has 0% coverage and the description only lists generic parameter names with no explanations. The critical `arguments` string is documented only as 'JSON string of arguments,' with no supported keys, structure, or examples.

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

Purpose2/5

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

The name `slack_views_open` and first line identify a Slack connector operation, but the description never explains what opening a view means or what effect it has. Without Slack API knowledge, an agent cannot tell whether this opens a modal, publishes a view, or manages view state.

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

Usage Guidelines1/5

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

The description provides no guidance on when to use this tool, what inputs to supply, or how it differs from siblings like `slack_views_publish`, `slack_views_push`, and `slack_views_update`. It only mentions routing through connector authority, which is not usage guidance.

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