Input Schema

TableJSON Schema

Name	Required	Description
`udid`	No	Apple device or simulator UDID; the selector that pins one device when several share a name.
`debug`	No	Enable debug diagnostics.
`runId`	No	Lease run identifier.
`device`	No	Device name selector (a UDID belongs in udid, a serial in serial).
`serial`	No	Android, HarmonyOS, or Vega VVD serial selector.
`target`	No	Alias for deviceTarget on commands without a UI target field. Interaction commands reserve target for the UI element.
`tenant`	No	Remote tenant identifier.
`leaseId`	No	Existing lease identifier.
`session`	No	Agent-device session name.
`platform`	No	Platform selector used to resolve a device.
`provider`	No	Cloud provider name, for example browserstack or aws-device-farm.
`includeCost`	No	Include per-command agent-cost (cost.wallClockMs, …) in structuredContent. Defaults to off; the default response shape is unchanged.
`deviceTarget`	No	Device target form. Maps to the CLI --target flag.
`responseLevel`	No	Response verbosity: token-cheap digest / default (today) / full. Defaults to default; the default response shape is unchanged.
`mcpOutputFormat`	No	MCP text content format. Defaults to optimized agent-friendly text; use json for JSON text. Structured content is always returned separately.
`providerSessionId`	No	Cloud provider session id or ARN.
`androidDeviceAllowlist`	No	Android serial allowlist used for device resolution.

B3.3/5.0

Behavior3/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description must carry the full behavioral burden. It discloses a 90-second timeout, which is useful, and the verb 'List' implies a read-only operation. However, it does not mention pagination, response format, or whether structuredContent is included by default. Given the minimal disclosure, this is adequate but not thorough.

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?

The description is very short—two sentences—and front-loads the purpose. The timeout note is a useful extra detail. There is no wasted wording. While it is terse, it is efficient and not padded, so it earns a high score for conciseness, though it sacrifices completeness.

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?

Given the tool has 17 parameters, no output schema, and no annotations, the description is incomplete. It does not explain what the returned artifacts look like, whether they are structured or textual, or how the many parameters interrelate. The agent must rely entirely on the schema, and the description fails to provide the higher-level context needed to confidently invoke the tool.

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 description coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The description adds no parameter-specific information beyond the schema, and with 17 parameters it does not attempt to summarize or prioritize them. The schema's detailed descriptions carry the weight, so the description neither helps nor hurts here.

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 states a clear verb ('List') and resource ('daemon or cloud provider artifacts') and scopes it to 'an active or completed session.' This distinguishes it from most siblings, though it doesn't explicitly name an alternative. It is more specific than a tautology and gives the agent a concrete idea of what the tool does.

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 sessions, but provides no guidance on when to choose this over sibling tools or when not to use it. There are no exclusions or alternative tool references. The 'active or completed session' context offers a mild cue, but it falls short of explicit direction.

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