Publish Mogrt To Library

publish_mogrt_to_library

Publishes the exact previewed MOGRT as an immutable local-library version after explicit confirmation, failing rather than overwriting an existing version.

Instructions

Publish the exact previewed MOGRT as an immutable local-library version. Requires explicit confirmation and will fail instead of replacing an existing version.

Input Schema

Name	Required	Description
`preview_token`	Yes	One-time token returned by preview_mogrt_library_publish.
`confirm_publish`	Yes	Must be true to copy the immutable library version.
`idempotency_key`	No	Optional client-chosen key (1-128 chars of A-Z a-z 0-9 . _ : -) for this intended edit. Pass a fresh key per edit and reuse it only when retrying that same edit, for example after a client-side timeout. A repeat with the same tool, key and arguments is not run again: while the first call is running it fails with IDEMPOTENCY_IN_PROGRESS (poll get_last_operations); after it finished it returns the original outcome marked replayed. A definite failure with nothing applied (receipt outcome not_applied) may be retried with the same key. Reusing a key with different arguments fails with IDEMPOTENCY_KEY_REUSED. Scoped to this MCP session (the stdio server process or one HTTP session) and held in memory only (200 keys, 1 hour); it does not survive a restart or reconnect. Read-only invocations are never deduplicated.
`expected_cep_target`	No	Optional reviewed CEP sequence/clip identity and exact tick ranges. Checked before every generated command; UXP refuses this CEP-only guard.
`expected_project_path`	No	Optional 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

Name	Required	Description
`ok`	Yes	Whether the tool completed successfully.
`data`	No	Tool-specific result data when ok is true; on failure, diagnostic detail when the tool provides it.
`tool`	Yes	The registered MCP tool name.
`error`	No	Failure detail when ok is false.
`receipt`	No	Versioned common mutation receipt; success never implies rendered verification.
`idempotency`	No	Present when idempotency_key deduplicated this call: replayed is true when the original outcome was returned instead of running again.

TDQS

A3.8/5.0

Behavior4/5

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

The description adds real behavior beyond the annotations: the write is immutable, it fails rather than overwriting an existing version, and it needs explicit confirmation. That is exactly the kind of non-obvious safety context the annotations (destructiveHint=false, idempotentHint=false) do not convey. It is consistent with idempotentHint=false, since a repeat publish cannot overwrite.

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 sentences, no filler, with the core action first and the confirmation/immutability constraints immediately after. Every clause earns its place.

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?

With an output schema present, the description need not explain return values, and it covers purpose, confirmation requirement, and overwrite policy. Minor gaps remain around what the library version is named or where it is stored, but not enough to mislead an agent.

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%, including detailed notes on preview_token, confirm_publish, idempotency_key and expected_cep_target, so the schema carries the parameter burden. The description adds nothing parameter-specific beyond the implicit link between 'previewed' and preview_token, which meets the baseline for a fully documented schema.

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?

States a specific verb ('Publish') and resource ('the exact previewed MOGRT as an immutable local-library version'), so the action is unambiguous. It implies the preview_mogrt_library_publish dependency but never names a sibling tool or explicitly contrasts against inspect_mogrt_library or import_mogrt_from_library.

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?

'Requires explicit confirmation' and 'exact previewed MOGRT' imply the preview-then-publish flow and the confirm flag, but there is no explicit when-to-use vs alternative guidance and no statement of what happens on the preview path instead. Usage is inferred rather than directed.

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