Create BIM Model

create_bim_model

Creates a new BIM model record in a Procore project. Provide project ID and BIM model details to add building information model data.

Instructions

Create a BIM Model in a Project. Use this to create a new BIM records in Procore. Creates a new BIM records and returns the created object on success (HTTP 201). Required parameters: project_id, bim_model. Procore API: Preconstruction > BIM. Endpoint: POST /rest/v1.0/bim_models

Input Schema

bim_modelYesJSON request body field — the bim model for this BIM operation
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already indicate non-readonly (false), so creation is implied. The description adds the return behavior (HTTP 201) but does not elaborate on side effects, error states, or behavior under duplicates. It provides minimal extra context beyond annotations.

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 description is moderately concise but redundant: 'Create a BIM Model in a Project' and 'Use this to create a new BIM records' convey the same idea. The API path and method are helpful but could be integrated more efficiently.

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?

Given the complexity (3 parameters, no output schema), the description lacks essential details. It does not explain the required fields within bim_model, the purpose of the view parameter, or any error handling. An agent would struggle to form a correct request without additional knowledge.

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?

The input schema has 100% description coverage, so the baseline is 3. The description merely restates required parameters (project_id, bim_model) without adding meaning or clarifying the structure of bim_model, which is an open object.

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

Purpose4/5

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

The description clearly states the action (create), the resource (BIM Model), and the scope (in a Project). It distinguishes from similar tools like update_bim_model among the siblings by specifying creation and mentioning the verb 'create'.

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 explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. It does not provide contextual cues for when to choose create over update or delete, nor does it mention prerequisites or limitations.

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