daz_render_with_camera_async

Render a scene from a specific camera without changing the active viewport. Returns immediately with a request ID for asynchronous progress tracking.

Instructions

Start a camera-specific render asynchronously — returns immediately with a request_id.

Renders from the specified camera without changing the active viewport camera. Use daz_get_request_status() to poll and daz_get_request_result() for the result.

Args: camera_label: Display label of the camera to render from. output_path: Optional file path for the rendered image.

Returns: {"request_id": "script-XXXXXXXX", "status": "queued", "submitted_at": "..."}

Behavior3/5

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

With no annotations, the description must disclose side effects. It states the tool does not change the active viewport camera, which is positive. However, it omits any mention of permissions, error behavior (e.g., invalid camera_label), or potential resource consumption, leaving gaps in understanding.

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 very concise with a clear structure: action sentence, key detail, bulleted Args, and return format. Every sentence adds value without redundancy.

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

Completeness4/5

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

For a simple async render tool with two parameters and an output schema, the description covers the main points adequately. It could include error handling or invalid input behavior, but overall it is fairly complete given the modest complexity.

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 schema provides only type info (0% coverage). The description explains camera_label as 'Display label of the camera to render from' and output_path as 'Optional file path for the rendered image', adding meaningful context beyond the schema.

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 'camera-specific render asynchronously' and 'returns immediately with a request_id', which conveys the core function. It differentiates from sibling tools by emphasizing camera specificity and async behavior, though it does not explicitly name alternatives.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

The description implies usage for rendering from a camera without changing the active viewport, which gives some context. However, it lacks explicit guidance on when not to use this tool versus synchronous or other async render tools (e.g., daz_render_with_camera, daz_render_async).

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