allow_ip

Generate an audited cscli command to temporarily allow a specific IP address. Review the proposed action before deciding whether to apply it.

Instructions

Prepare and audit a potential cscli command to add a temporary allow decision for one IP. The MCP does not execute it.

Tool call template

Replace each placeholder with a value matching the input schema. Only required parameters are included; add optional parameters as needed.

{
  "id": 1,
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "arguments": {
      "ip": "<ip>",
      "reason": "<reason>"
    },
    "name": "allow_ip"
  }
}

TDQS

A3.7/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Since no annotations are provided, the description must carry the full burden. It discloses that the tool does not execute writes, which is the key behavioral trait. However, it omits details like authentication requirements, rate limits, or potential side effects of auditing.

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 sentences, no wasted words, front-loaded with the core purpose and key behavioral caveat. Highly efficient.

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?

Given the lack of output schema, the description does not explain what the tool returns (presumably the prepared command string). It also does not mention prerequisites like cscli installation. For a 4-parameter tool with no annotations, more context on output and prerequisites would be helpful.

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 50% with descriptions for 'ip' and 'execute' only. The description adds context for the 'ip' parameter ('one IP') and for 'execute' (legacy no-op), but does not clarify 'reason' or 'duration' beyond what the schema provides. Overall marginal value.

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 that the tool prepares and audits a potential cscli command to add a temporary allow decision for one IP, and explicitly notes that the MCP does not execute it. This distinguishes it from sibling tools like 'ban_ip' which likely involve execution.

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 this tool is for dry-run preparation, not execution, but does not explicitly state when to use it versus alternatives or what prerequisites are needed. The contrast with ban_ip is indirect.

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