Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
identifierYesThe bundle ID string (e.g., 'com.example.app')
nameYesA name for the bundle ID
platformYesThe platform for this bundle ID
seedIdNoYour team's seed ID (optional)

Implementation Reference

  • The main handler function that executes the create_bundle_id tool logic by validating inputs, constructing the API request body, and calling the AppStoreConnectClient to POST /bundleIds.
    async createBundleId(args: {
      identifier: string;
      name: string;
      platform: BundlePlatform;
      seedId?: string;
    }): Promise<BundleIdResponse> {
      const { identifier, name, platform, seedId } = args;
      
      validateRequired(args, ['identifier', 'name', 'platform']);
    
      const requestBody: CreateBundleIdRequest = {
        data: {
          type: "bundleIds",
          attributes: {
            identifier,
            name,
            platform,
            seedId
          }
        }
      };
    
      return this.client.post<BundleIdResponse>('/bundleIds', requestBody);
    }
  • TypeScript interface defining the CreateBundleIdRequest structure used in the handler for input validation and API request body.
    export interface CreateBundleIdRequest {
      data: {
        type: "bundleIds";
        attributes: {
          identifier: string;
          name: string;
          platform: BundlePlatform;
          seedId?: string;
        };
      };
    }

TDQS

B3/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

With no annotations, the description must cover behavioral traits. It only says 'Register' (indicating creation) but does not disclose idempotency, permissions, side effects, or return behavior. Missing critical context for a mutation operation.

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 a single, short sentence, but it is not front-loaded with the most critical information (e.g., the action and resource). It is adequate but unremarkable.

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?

Despite 4 parameters and no output schema, the description lacks details about post-creation behavior (e.g., what is returned, if the ID is immediately usable). The tool is incompletely specified for an agent to understand the full effect.

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 coverage is 100%, so the input schema already documents all parameters. The description adds no additional parameter-level meaning. Baseline score of 3 is appropriate.

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?

Clear verb ('Register') and specific resource ('bundle ID') stated. Distinct from sibling tools like list_bundle_ids and get_bundle_id_info.

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?

The description provides only a vague context ('for app development') but no explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives (e.g., when to create vs. list or get).

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