Instructions

Manage session app logs.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
cwdNoWorking directory for command execution.
udidNoiOS device UDID selector.
debugNoEnable debug diagnostics.
runIdNoLease run identifier.
actionNo
deviceNoDevice name selector.
serialNoAndroid serial selector.
targetNoAlias for deviceTarget on commands without a UI target field. Interaction commands reserve target for the UI element.
tenantNoRemote tenant identifier.
leaseIdNoExisting lease identifier.
messageNo
restartNo
sessionNoAgent-device session name.
platformNoPlatform selector used to resolve a device.
stateDirNoAgent-device state directory.
includeCostNoInclude per-command agent-cost (cost.wallClockMs, …) in structuredContent. Defaults to off; the default response shape is unchanged.
deviceTargetNoDevice target form. Maps to the CLI --target flag.
daemonBaseUrlNoRemote daemon base URL.
responseLevelNoResponse verbosity: token-cheap digest / default (today) / full. Defaults to default; the default response shape is unchanged.
daemonAuthTokenNoRemote daemon auth token.
iosXctestEnvDirNoWritable directory for iOS XCTest runner env overlays.
mcpOutputFormatNoMCP text content format. Defaults to optimized agent-friendly text; use json for JSON text. Structured content is always returned separately.
iosXctestrunFileNoExternally built iOS XCTest runner .xctestrun artifact path.
iosSimulatorDeviceSetNoiOS simulator device-set path used for device resolution.
androidDeviceAllowlistNoAndroid serial allowlist used for device resolution.
iosXctestDerivedDataPathNoDerived data path for external iOS XCTest runner execution.
Behavior2/5

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

With no annotations, the description bears full responsibility for behavioral disclosure, but it fails to mention that actions like 'stop' or 'clear' are destructive. It does not discuss authentication, rate limits, or side effects, making it insufficient for safe invocation.

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 a single sentence with no fluff, earning its place through brevity. However, it could be restructured to front-load the key action and resource more effectively.

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 26 parameters and no output schema, the description is severely lacking. It does not explain what the tool returns, how actions differ, or how to use the many shared parameters. A tool of this complexity requires a much richer description.

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 high (88%), so the baseline is 3. The description adds no parameter meaning beyond what is already in the schema, but it does not detract from it either. It neither helps nor hinders parameter understanding.

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 'Manage session app logs.' uses a verb and resource, but 'Manage' is vague and doesn't specify the range of operations (path, start, stop, doctor, mark, clear) hinted by the 'action' parameter. It provides a general idea but lacks specificity to distinguish from sibling tools that also manage resources.

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 is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'session' or 'debug'. The description does not mention prerequisites, context, or exclusions, offering no help in selecting the appropriate tool.

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