Create webhook

create_webhook

Register an HTTPS endpoint to receive render completion or failure events. Each delivery includes an HMAC-SHA256 signature for verification using the provided signing secret.

Instructions

Register a webhook endpoint for render events. The response includes the signing secret (whsec_...) shown in full only here and on get_webhook — deliveries are signed with HMAC-SHA256 in the X-Zvid-Signature header.

Behavior3/5

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

With no annotations, the description carries full burden. It discloses that the response includes the signing secret (shown only here and on get_webhook) and that deliveries are HMAC-SHA256 signed. However, it omits other behaviors like validation, rate limits, or idempotency.

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?

Two sentences, no fluff. Purpose is front-loaded, and additional behavioral context is appended. Could be slightly more concise but overall efficient.

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?

Lacks return value details (beyond signing secret) and error handling. The 'description' parameter is undocumented in both schema and description. No guidance on when to use versus other webhook tools.

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 covers 2 of 3 parameters with descriptions (url, events), so baseline is 3. The description does not add new semantic detail about parameters beyond what schema provides; the third parameter 'description' lacks schema description and is not addressed.

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?

Clearly states the action 'Register a webhook endpoint' and the resource 'render events'. The verb 'register' is distinct from sibling update/delete/test tools, making purpose unambiguous.

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 guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'update_webhook' or 'test_webhook'. Does not mention prerequisites or context for using webhooks.

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