smokeball_list_matters

Read-onlyIdempotent

List legal matters from Smokeball through a project-bound connector account, enabling retrieval of case and client information for review or downstream processing.

Instructions

Smokeball connector operation list_matters (platform tool smokeball.list_matters).

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

C2.9/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations clearly mark the operation read-only, idempotent, and non-destructive, and the description's required 'read' effect aligns with those hints. However, it does not describe output shape, pagination, or failure behavior, so transparency is only partially complete.

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 and organized as a bulleted parameter list with no fluff. It front-loads the operation identity and routing constraint before the args.

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

Completeness2/5

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

The tool is a thin connector wrapper, but the description omits the operation's domain behavior, expected response, and any example arguments. Without an output schema or a pointer to Smokeball's list-matters parameters, an agent cannot reliably know what to pass or what to expect.

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

Parameters2/5

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

Schema parameters have no descriptions, and the description only assigns generic wrapper meanings (arguments JSON string, project auth fields, etc.). It does not explain what fields can appear inside `arguments` for listing matters, such as filters or pagination, so the key domain parameter is essentially opaque.

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 it as Smokeball's list_matters connector operation, so the verb/resource are recoverable from the name, but it never states that it retrieves a list of matters or what data is returned. The routing/authority note is a constraint rather than a functional purpose.

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 beyond the routing constraint. The description does not distinguish when to call this vs other Smokeball list tools or explain how to construct the arguments. Sibling tools like smokeball_get_matter and smokeball_list_matter_types are not referenced.

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