Get example payload

get_example_payload

Retrieve generic starter payloads for promo-video, template-render, still-image, subtitles, or webhook-flow. Use as schema scaffolds when no library example matches.

Instructions

Get one of five GENERIC starter payloads for a common flow: promo-video (10s scene-based hook/value/CTA with scrim + flex-centered card), template-render (variables), still-image (transparent PNG, single html card), subtitles (karaoke captions), webhook-flow (per-job webhookUrl). These are schema scaffolds, NOT the designed library — for premium creative work use find_matching_examples / start_from_example first and fall back here only when no library example fits. Omit name to list all examples.

Behavior3/5

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

No annotations provided, so description must cover behavior. It describes the payloads as schema scaffolds, not designed library, and lists the five types. However, it doesn't mention permissions, rate limits, or side effects, leaving some gaps.

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?

Dense but efficient; every sentence adds value. Slightly long due to inline examples, but well-structured with front-loaded purpose.

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

Completeness5/5

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

Given single optional param, no output schema, and sibling tools, the description is complete: explains what, when, and alternatives. No missing critical information.

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

Parameters4/5

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

Schema covers 100% with enum and description; description adds value by listing the five specific names and explaining the 'omit name' behavior, beyond what schema provides.

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?

States explicitly it gets one of five generic starter payloads for common flows, listing them by name. Distinguishes from siblings like find_matching_examples and start_from_example.

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?

Clear guidance: use find_matching_examples/start_from_example for premium work, fall back here only when no library example fits. Also explains omitting name lists all.

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