confirm_ci_create

DestructiveIdempotent

Finalize CI creation after preview. Use the confirmation token from preview_ci_create to commit the new CI record.

Instructions

Execute a previously previewed CI creation.

Prerequisites: You MUST call preview_ci_create first and use the token from its response.

Requires the confirmation token returned by preview_ci_create. The token is single-use and expires after 5 minutes.

Args: token: The confirmation token from preview_ci_create.

Returns: JSON object with "success", "sys_id" (of the new CI), "table", and the "created_record".

Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already indicate destructiveHint=true and idempotentHint=true. Description adds important behavioral context: token is single-use and expires after 5 minutes, plus return fields (success, sys_id, table, created_record). Does not contradict annotations.

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 brief paragraphs with structured Args and Returns sections. Front-loaded with main purpose. No unnecessary words; every sentence adds value.

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?

Given the tool has one required parameter and an output schema (not shown but present), description covers prerequisites, token behavior, and return format. Could mention what type of CI is created, but overall complete for a focused action tool.

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?

Schema has 0% description coverage for the single token parameter. Description compensates by explaining 'The confirmation token from preview_ci_create', adding meaning beyond the type 'string' in 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?

Description clearly states 'Execute a previously previewed CI creation' with specific verb 'execute' and resource 'CI creation previewed earlier'. Distinguishes from sibling tools like preview_ci_create (preview vs execute) and confirm_ci_update (CI update).

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?

Explicitly states prerequisite: 'You MUST call preview_ci_create first and use the token from its response.' Also mentions token expiry (5 minutes) and single-use constraint. Provides clear guidance on when to use this tool.

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