Instructions

Create a new ABAP transport request in SAP system for development objects.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
transport_typeNoTransport type: 'workbench' (cross-client) or 'customizing' (client-specific)workbench
descriptionYesTransport request description (mandatory)
target_systemNoTarget system for transport (optional, e.g., 'PRD', 'QAS'). If not provided or empty, uses 'LOCAL'
ownerNoTransport owner (optional, defaults to current user)
Behavior2/5

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

With no annotations provided, the description fails to disclose behavioral traits like required authorizations, side effects, or whether the transport is opened for recording. The short description adds no depth beyond the parameter schema.

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 a single concise sentence that front-loads the action and resource. Every word is necessary and there is no superfluous information.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness3/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

While the parameter schema is well-covered, the lack of output schema means the description should explain return values or next steps. It does not address what the tool returns, leaving some contextual gaps for a creation operation.

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%, so the schema already documents each parameter. The description adds no additional semantic value beyond what's in the schema, earning a baseline of 3.

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 verb 'Create' and resource 'ABAP transport request', distinguishing it from sibling tools like CreateClass or CreateTable. The purpose is immediately clear.

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 guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as ListTransports or GetTransport. Missing context on prerequisites or typical workflow scenarios.

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