snapchat get write schema

snapchat_get_write_schema
Read-onlyIdempotent

Retrieve writable Snapchat Ads fields, required inputs, and preview rules for a given entity type so you can prepare valid creation or edit payloads.

Instructions

Discover implemented Snapchat creation/edit fields, required fields and preview rules. These are the fields this server accepts, not an exhaustive Snap API schema.

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": {
      "kind": "<kind>"
    },
    "name": "snapchat_get_write_schema"
  }
}

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
kindYesEntity type whose writable fields to describe.

Output Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
resultYesOriginal tool result: parsed JSON when the text is JSON, otherwise the text or multiple MCP content blocks. Provider fields depend on the selected query.

TDQS

A3.8/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnly/idempotent/non-destructive, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds genuinely useful behavioral context beyond that: the returned schema is the server's *implemented* subset, not the full Snap API, which prevents an agent from assuming completeness.

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 compact sentences, with the core purpose front-loaded and the scope caveat immediately after. Nothing is redundant.

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?

With an output schema available and a fully documented single enum parameter, the description need not explain return values. It covers purpose and the non-exhaustiveness caveat; the only small gap is the absence of an explicit 'call before create/edit' trigger.

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% and the single 'kind' parameter is already documented with an enum of nine entity types. The description adds no further meaning about how 'kind' affects the returned schema, so the baseline 3 applies.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description states a specific verb ('Discover') and a specific resource (implemented write/creation fields, required fields, preview rules), which is clearly distinct from the sibling snapchat_get_* tools that fetch entity data. It does not name a sibling explicitly, but the resource boundary is unambiguous.

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?

Usage is implied – an agent should call this before attempting to create or edit any of the listed entity kinds – but the description never says when to call it or what the alternative is. No prerequisites or exclusions are stated.

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