maltego_save_graph

Save a graph to a .mtgx file in a configured output directory, refusing to overwrite unless overwrite is explicitly set to true.

Instructions

Save a graph to a .mtgx file inside the configured outputDir. Refuses to overwrite unless overwrite=true.

Behavior3/5

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

No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. Discloses overwrite behavior but omits other aspects like side effects, success/failure responses, or permission requirements.

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 concise, front-loaded sentences with no extraneous information. 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 no annotations, no output schema, and only 3 parameters, description covers the core purpose, constraints, and critical behavior. Minor gaps in return value and error handling.

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 33%. Description adds useful detail for path (relative to outputDir, absolute path constraint) but provides no extra info for graphId or overwrite beyond 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?

Clearly states the action (save), resource (graph), format (.mtgx), and location (inside outputDir). Distinguishes from sibling tool maltego_load_graph.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

No explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. Doesn't mention prerequisites or when not to use (e.g., to export to other formats).

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