Destructive

Sign a contract from a vendor by confirming first, then receive a deep link to the HoneyBook portal to complete the signing.

Instructions

Sign a contract you received from a vendor. In v1 this returns a deep link to the HoneyBook portal instead of signing headlessly. Asks the user to confirm first: a confirmation prompt where the client supports one; otherwise the first call returns a preview and a confirmToken, and only a repeat call with that token proceeds (see MCP_CONFIRM_MODE).

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
originNoPortal origin (e.g. https://<vendor>.hbportal.co). Optional when only one session is active.
file_idYesThe agreement file _id from list_workspace_files (file_type=agreement).
confirmTokenNoONLY for the two-step confirmation fallback (a client without MCP elicitation). The confirmToken from this same tool's phase-1 "confirmation-required" response, passed back ONLY after the user has seen that preview and explicitly approved it in chat — never on the first call, never invented, never reused. Call again with the same arguments. Ignored when the client supports elicitation.

TDQS

A4.6/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Goes well beyond the destructiveHint annotation by explaining that v1 returns a deep link, that user confirmation is required, and that unsupported clients need a two-phase preview/confirmToken flow. This adds meaningful behavioral context for an agent deciding whether and how to invoke it.

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?

Three sentences with no filler. The main purpose is front-loaded, and every clause carries useful information about the v1 behavior, confirmation requirement, and fallback flow.

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 destructive tool with no output schema, the description covers the key response behaviors: deep link, preview, confirmToken, and repeat-call requirement. It could be slightly more explicit about what a successful confirmed call returns, but the overall flow is sufficiently complete 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?

The schema already documents all three parameters, so the baseline is 3. The description adds important behavioral semantics around confirmToken: it must never be sent on the first call, must come from the phase-1 response, must not be invented/reused, and is ignored when elicitation is supported.

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?

States a specific verb and resource: 'Sign a contract you received from a vendor.' It also clarifies the v1 behavior, returning a deep link rather than signing headlessly, which distinguishes it from any hypothetical headless signing path and from sibling tools like pay_invoice.

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?

Provides clear context for when to use the tool and details the confirmation-first workflow, including the two-step fallback with confirmToken. It does not explicitly name alternative tools for comparison, but no sibling tool offers contract signing, so no exclusion is necessary.

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