confluence_create_space

Create a new Confluence space using a required name and key. Optionally specify the space type, description, or bypass response trimming for raw data.

Instructions

Create a new space. Requires name and key. Output is trimmed by default (drops _links, _expandable, body content, etc.); pass full=true to receive the raw Confluence response.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
keyYesThe unique key for the space (uppercase letters and numbers only)
fullNoIf true, bypass response trimming and return the raw Confluence API response.
nameYesThe name of the space
typeNoType of space (default: global)
descriptionNoDescription of the space (plain text)
Behavior3/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It discloses output trimming behavior and the `full` parameter, which adds value. However, it omits details about permissions, idempotency, or error cases (e.g., duplicate key).

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?

Two concise sentences that front-load the core action and required parameters, with no wasted words.

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?

The description covers the main behavior and output trimming, which is helpful given no output schema. It could improve by describing the response structure or common error cases, but it is mostly complete.

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?

Schema coverage is 100%, so the schema already describes parameters. The description adds context about the `full` parameter's effect (what is dropped), which goes beyond the schema's 'bypass response trimming'.

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?

The description clearly states 'Create a new space,' which is a specific verb+resource. It distinguishes from siblings like `confluence_update_space` and `confluence_delete_space`.

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?

The description lists required parameters (name and key), providing clear context for usage. However, it does not explicitly discuss when not to use or mention alternatives, though the sibling set makes the distinction obvious.

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