get_warp_markers

Retrieve all warp markers from a specific audio clip in Ableton Live, enabling analysis of its timing structure.

Instructions

Get all warp markers from an audio clip.

Parameters:

  • track_index: The index of the track

  • clip_index: The index of the clip slot

Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are present, so the description must inform behavioral traits. It states 'Get', implying a read operation with no side effects, but does not confirm safety, permissions, or any other behaviors. The description is too brief to provide adequate transparency.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness3/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is brief and reasonably structured with a short sentence followed by a parameter list. However, the parameter descriptions could be integrated into the main text to improve flow. It is not overly verbose.

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 complexity of the tool (reading warp markers from audio clips) and the lack of an output schema, the description should hint at the return format or structure of warp markers. It does not mention what a warp marker is or how the output is presented. Sibling tools like 'add_warp_marker' are not acknowledged.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters2/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 0%, so the description must explain parameters. It provides minimal explanations ('The index of the track', 'The index of the clip slot'), which essentially restate the parameter names. No additional context like how to obtain these indices or what values are valid.

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 the action ('Get all warp markers') and the resource ('from an audio clip'). The verb 'Get' and the specific resource 'warp markers' make the purpose unambiguous. However, it does not differentiate from sibling tools like 'get_clip_warp_info', which could be confused.

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 usage guidance is provided. The description does not indicate when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'add_warp_marker' or 'delete_warp_marker'. There is no mention of prerequisites, context, or exclusion criteria.

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