Get Export File Extension

get_export_file_extension
Read-onlyIdempotent

Determine the export file extension for the active sequence using a specified preset path. This helps confirm the output format before exporting.

Instructions

Get the file extension that would be used when exporting the active sequence with a given preset

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
preset_pathYesFull path to the export preset file (.epr)

Output Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
okYesWhether the tool completed successfully.
dataNoTool-specific result data when ok is true.
toolYesThe registered MCP tool name.
errorNoFailure detail when ok is false.

TDQS

A3.9/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true, and destructiveHint=false, covering the safety profile. The description adds the context that this returns a hypothetical extension based on the active sequence and preset, which is useful but not a rich behavioral disclosure beyond what annotations provide.

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?

The description is a single, succinct sentence with no filler or redundant wording. It front-loads the action and resource immediately, making it easy for an agent to parse quickly.

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?

For a one-parameter, read-only query tool with a full input schema and an output schema, the description is complete. It identifies the active-sequence dependency, the preset input, and the query nature of the operation; nothing essential is missing for an agent to invoke it correctly.

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 description coverage is 100% because preset_path is described as 'Full path to the export preset file (.epr)'. The description's reference to 'a given preset' adds no new meaning beyond the schema, so the baseline of 3 is appropriate.

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 uses a specific verb ('Get') and a clear resource ('the file extension that would be used when exporting the active sequence'), making the tool's purpose unambiguous. It is distinct from sibling export tools like export_sequence and validate_export_preset by focusing on querying the extension rather than performing or validating an export.

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 phrase 'when exporting the active sequence with a given preset' implies a pre-export query context, but the description does not explicitly state when this should be used over alternatives like validate_export_preset or export_sequence. No exclusions or explicit alternative routing is provided, so usage guidance is only implied.

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