qui_reprocess_rss_rules

Trigger reprocessing of RSS rules on a qBittorrent instance, forcing re-evaluation of feeds to apply rule changes or fix missed matches.

Instructions

Call qui's POST /instances/{instanceID}/rss/rules/reprocess endpoint. Pass path variables directly in arguments, query values in arguments.params, and a JSON request body in arguments.body.

Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description must disclose side effects; it does not. Not mentioning whether reprocessing is destructive, asynchronous, re-runnable, or what is affected, though 'POST' hints at mutation. This is insufficient.

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 tightly packed sentences; no redundant filler. The front-loaded endpoint statement and parameter convention are each useful. Could be expanded with purpose, but as written it's concise.

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?

For a POST action with no annotations and no output schema details, the description omits purpose, side effects, and required path/body parameters. It only covers the general request shape, leaving the agent under-equipped for correct invocation.

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?

Despite an empty schema (only `arguments` anyOf object), the description explains the three-part argument convention: path variables at top level, query in arguments.params, and body in arguments.body. This is essential for a generic proxy tool and goes far beyond the schema's `additionalProperties: true`.

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 the exact endpoint and HTTP method, which maps to the tool's name, but it never explains what 'reprocess' does semantically (e.g., re-running RSS rules for matching). It is not a pure tautology because it gives the URL structure, but it remains vague for an agent deciding among related RSS tools.

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 invoke reprocess versus siblings like qui_preview_rss_rule_matches or qui_refresh_rss_item. It only provides invocation mechanics. The agent must infer context from the endpoint name.

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