nest_clips

Combine selected clips into a single nested sequence to organize and simplify your timeline.

Instructions

Nest selected clips into a nested sequence. Select the clips first, then call this tool.

Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description must carry the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It mentions the precondition of selection but does not describe whether the operation is destructive, what happens to original clips, or any permission requirements. This is insufficient for complete transparency.

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 extremely concise at two sentences, with no wasted words. It front-loads the purpose and provides the essential usage hint.

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

Completeness3/5

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

For a simple one-parameter tool with no output schema, the description is minimally adequate. It explains what to do but lacks context on what the nesting operation actually accomplishes (e.g., creating a new sequence, grouping clips). More detail would improve completeness.

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 coverage is 100% and the schema already describes the 'name' parameter as 'Name for the nested sequence'. The description does not add extra meaning beyond that, so the baseline score 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 clearly states the action ('nest selected clips') and the resource ('into a nested sequence'). It distinguishes this tool from sibling tools by specifying the 'nesting' operation, which is unique among the many clip manipulation tools.

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 description provides a clear precondition ('Select the clips first, then call this tool'), which is helpful. However, it does not offer guidance on when to use nesting versus alternatives (e.g., creating a subsequence or using unnest_sequence), nor does it exclude cases.

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