Live: disconnect

live_disconnect
Read-onlyIdempotent

Disconnect an active live editing session in Inkscape, functioning as a kill switch. Idempotent operation with no side effects on document content.

Instructions

Disconnect the current live session (the X1 disable switch). Idempotent.

When to use: ending a live session (or as a hard kill switch). To start one use live_connect; to check state use live_status.

Key params: none. Idempotent — safe to call with no session.

Return shape: LiveSession — the now-disconnected session state.

Example: live_disconnect()

Risk class: low (tears down the transport; no document mutation).

Behavior5/5

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

Adds context beyond annotations: idempotent, safe with no session, return shape, risk class. No contradiction with annotations (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint are consistent with 'no document mutation').

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?

Very concise, well-structured with sections (description, when to use, key params, return shape, example, risk class). Every sentence adds value.

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?

Complete for a simple tool with no parameters and supportive annotations. Covers purpose, usage, behavior, example, and risk class. Output schema likely provides return details.

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

Parameters4/5

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

No parameters; baseline 4 applies. Description correctly notes 'Key params: none,' but adds no extra meaning beyond the 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?

Clearly states 'Disconnect the current live session (the X1 disable switch). Idempotent.' Identifies the specific resource and action, and distinguishes from siblings like live_connect and live_status.

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

Usage Guidelines5/5

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

Explicitly provides when-to-use ('ending a live session (or as a hard kill switch)') and alternatives: 'To start one use live_connect; to check state use live_status.'

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