Group Consignments for Manifest

machship_group_consignments_for_manifest
Read-only

Groups specified consignments into manifest groups, providing a preview before finalizing the manifest.

Instructions

Groups a specific set of consignments into manifest groups (preview before manifesting).

Args:

  • consignmentIds (number[]): Consignment IDs to group

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
consignmentIdsYesConsignment IDs to group
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and destructiveHint=false, indicating a safe preview operation. The description adds 'preview before manifesting', which is consistent. No contradictions, but no further behavioral details beyond annotations.

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?

The description is two sentences plus an argument list, front-loaded with the core purpose. Every sentence is meaningful and concise, with no extraneous information.

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?

Given the tool has a single parameter, no output schema, and annotations cover the safety profile, the description is sufficiently complete for basic understanding. It might lack detail on edge cases (e.g., already grouped consignments) but is adequate.

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 100% for the only parameter 'consignmentIds'. The description merely repeats the argument definition, adding no new meaning beyond what the schema already provides. Baseline 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?

The description clearly states the tool groups specific consignments into manifest groups as a preview. It distinguishes from siblings like 'machship_group_all_for_manifest' (all consignments) and 'machship_manifest_consignments' (actual manifest) by mentioning 'preview before manifesting' and 'specific set'.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines3/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The description implies usage for previewing grouping, but does not explicitly state when to use this vs. alternatives like group_all_for_manifest or group_and_perform_consolidation. No exclusions or context about prerequisites are given.

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