download_visu_project

Download a VISUDesigner (.lvp) project to an HMI device via connection string. Supports normal, changes-only, or publish+download modes.

Instructions

Download a VISUDesigner (.lvp) project to an HMI device. Does not save the project — use apply_visu_changes with a 'download' operation if you need to make changes and deploy in one step.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
flagsNo0=normal (default), 1=changes only, 2=publish+download changes
lvp_pathNoFull path to the .lvp file. Omit to auto-detect from the selected project.
connectionYesHMI connection string, e.g. 'TCPIP:192.168.1.100' or 'TCPIP:myhmi.local'
add_runtimeNoForce runtime download even if version already matches
Behavior4/5

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

With no annotations, description carries full burden. It clarifies a key behavioral trait (does not save the project) but does not disclose potential destructive impacts on the HMI device, permission requirements, or state prerequisites.

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?

Two sentences with no wasted words. First sentence states the primary action, second sentence provides an important exclusion and alternative. Perfectly front-loaded.

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?

While the description covers the core purpose and one alternative, it lacks details on post-download behavior, return value, and the semantics of flags. Given the tool's 4 parameters, this is somewhat incomplete.

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 coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3. The description adds no additional parameter information beyond what is already in the schema descriptions.

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 the verb 'download', resource 'VISUDesigner (.lvp) project', and target 'HMI device'. Distinguishes from sibling tools like 'download_project' and 'apply_visu_changes'.

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

Usage Guidelines5/5

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

Explicitly states the tool does not save the project and directs to use 'apply_visu_changes' with a 'download' operation for combined changes and deployment, providing clear when-to-use and when-not-to-use guidance.

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