Inspect Operation Recovery

inspect_operation_recovery
Read-onlyIdempotent

Inspect uncertain operation outcomes and the bounded current host-state revision to assess recovery while dependent mutations remain blocked; no edit is replayed.

Instructions

Inspect unknown execution outcomes and a bounded current host-state revision. Inspection remains available while dependent mutations are blocked. No edit is replayed.

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
backendYesExecution backend whose uncertain operations should be inspected.
expected_cep_targetNoOptional reviewed CEP sequence/clip identity and exact tick ranges. Checked before every generated command; UXP refuses this CEP-only guard.
expected_project_pathNoOptional absolute saved-project path. Every generated CEP command refuses before its body when the active project differs or is unsaved. UXP commands refuse this CEP-only guard; local-only tools do not inspect Premiere. Omit to keep existing behavior.

Output Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
okYesWhether the tool completed successfully.
dataNoTool-specific result data when ok is true; on failure, diagnostic detail when the tool provides it.
toolYesThe registered MCP tool name.
errorNoFailure detail when ok is false.
receiptNoVersioned common mutation receipt; success never implies rendered verification.
idempotencyNoPresent when idempotency_key deduplicated this call: replayed is true when the original outcome was returned instead of running again.

TDQS

A4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already cover the read-only, idempotent, non-destructive safety profile, and the description adds useful recovery-specific behavior: inspection is available while dependent mutations are blocked and no edit is replayed. It does not explain authentication, pagination, or output shape, but the output schema likely covers return details.

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?

Three short sentences, front-loaded with the core purpose and followed by the key recovery constraint and replay guarantee. There is little or no wasted text.

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?

The description supplies enough purpose and safety context for a read-only recovery inspection tool, especially given rich annotations, full schema descriptions, and an output schema. It could be slightly clearer about the relationship to recovery acknowledgement or operation-history siblings, but the essential calling context is present.

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%, so the schema already documents backend, expected_cep_target, and expected_project_path in detail. The description adds no parameter-specific meaning beyond the schema, which fits the baseline of 3 when the schema carries parameter semantics.

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 gives a specific verb and resource: inspect unknown execution outcomes and a bounded current host-state revision. It clearly frames the tool as recovery inspection, though it does not explicitly distinguish it from nearby siblings such as get_last_operations or acknowledge_operation_recovery.

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?

It states that inspection remains available while dependent mutations are blocked, which gives clear recovery-context guidance for when to use it. It does not name alternatives or explicit exclusions, so it stops short of the highest usage-guidance level.

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