restart_comfyui

Restarts the ComfyUI server by stopping the running process, capturing its configuration, waiting for the port to free, and relaunching with the same arguments until the API is ready.

Instructions

Restart ComfyUI: stops the running process (capturing its config), waits for the port to free, relaunches with the same arguments, and waits for the API to become ready.

Behavior5/5

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

With no annotations provided, the description fully bears the burden of transparency. It explicitly states the steps: stopping, capturing config, waiting for port free, relaunching, and waiting for API readiness, leaving no ambiguity about side effects or process.

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?

The description is a single, front-loaded sentence that efficiently communicates the complete action without unnecessary words. No redundancies or filler.

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 the simplicity of the tool (no parameters, no output schema), the description covers all necessary behavioral aspects. It is complete and sufficient for an AI to understand and invoke the tool correctly.

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?

The tool has zero parameters, so no parameter documentation is needed. The description appropriately focuses on behavior. Baseline 4 is justified.

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?

The description clearly states the tool restarts ComfyUI and details the exact sequence of actions, distinguishing it clearly from sibling tools like start_comfyui and stop_comfyui.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

The description implies usage for restarting the process, but lacks explicit when-to-use or when-not-to-use guidance. However, the behavior is clear enough for an AI to infer appropriate context.

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