tileset_manage

Retrieve occupied atlas tile positions and atlas sprite-sheet textures from a TileSet resource as base64 PNG images, enabling read-only inspection without editor interaction.

Instructions

TileSet management — atlas inspection tools.

Ops: • tileset_get_atlas_tiles(tileset_path, source_id) Return all occupied atlas tile positions for one source in a TileSet. Read-only — does not modify any resource or project file.

    tileset_path: res:// path to the .tres TileSet resource (required)
    source_id:    raw TileSet source id of the TileSetAtlasSource to query (required, ≥ 0)

    Returns:
      {"tiles": [{"col": int, "row": int}, ...], "count": int}

    Error codes (passed through from GDScript handler):
      MISSING_REQUIRED_PARAM  — tileset_path empty or source_id absent
      RESOURCE_NOT_FOUND      — tileset_path does not exist on disk
      WRONG_TYPE              — not a TileSet, or source is not a TileSetAtlasSource
      VALUE_OUT_OF_RANGE      — source_id does not exist in this TileSet

• tileset_get_atlas_image(tileset_path, source_id, max_size=0) Return the atlas sprite-sheet texture of a TileSetAtlasSource as a Base64-encoded PNG image. Read-only — reads the texture directly from the resource without any UI interaction.

    tileset_path: res:// path to the .tres TileSet resource (required)
    source_id:    raw TileSet source id of the TileSetAtlasSource to query (required, ≥ 0)
    max_size:     optional int; if > 0, scale the image so its longest
                  edge is at most max_size pixels (default 0 = full res)

    Returns:
      {"image_base64": str, "width": int, "height": int,
       "original_width": int, "original_height": int, "format": "png"}

    Error codes (passed through from GDScript handler):
      MISSING_REQUIRED_PARAM  — tileset_path empty or source_id absent
      RESOURCE_NOT_FOUND      — tileset_path does not exist on disk
      WRONG_TYPE              — not a TileSet, source not a TileSetAtlasSource,
                                or source has no texture assigned
      VALUE_OUT_OF_RANGE      — source_id does not exist in this TileSet

• Atlas image workflow: To visually inspect what tiles look like, use tileset_get_atlas_image instead of editor screenshots. It reads the texture directly from the resource — no UI interaction or editor state required.

Behavior5/5

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

Without annotations, the description clearly states both ops are read-only, do not modify resources, and for get_atlas_image, reads texture without UI interaction. It also details error codes, leaving no ambiguity about behavior.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is well-structured with bullet points and sections, but it is somewhat lengthy. Every part adds value, but slightly more conciseness would improve readability.

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

Completeness5/5

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

Given the multi-op nature, error codes, and output schema provided, the description is highly complete. It covers usage, parameters, return values, and edge cases with no significant gaps.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters5/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Despite 0% schema description coverage, the description thoroughly documents each parameter, including types, requirements, defaults (max_size=0), and ranges (source_id >= 0). It adds significant meaning beyond the generic input schema.

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 defines each operation (tileset_get_atlas_tiles and tileset_get_atlas_image) with specific verbs and resources. It distinguishes the tool's purpose as TileSet atlas inspection, differentiating it from siblings like tilemap_manage or editor_screenshot.

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 explicitly recommends using tileset_get_atlas_image 'instead of editor screenshots' and notes read-only behavior. However, it does not provide comprehensive when-not-to-use advice or compare to other tile-related tools (e.g., tilemap_manage).

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