GET /fieldsets/{id}/fields

snipeit_gen_fieldsetsidfields
Read-onlyIdempotent

Retrieves all fields associated with a Snipe-IT fieldset by ID, so you can inspect or manage custom field assignments.

Instructions

GET /fieldsets/{id}/fields: Return list of associated fields within a fieldset. Generated from Snipe-IT OpenAPI operation fieldsetsidfields.

Input Schema

B3.2/5.0
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, so safety is covered. The description adds only that the result is a list of associated fields; it says nothing about error behavior for an invalid fieldset id or whether it returns full field objects or references.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Front-loads the path and the purpose in one tight sentence with no padding. The trailing 'Generated from Snipe-IT OpenAPI operation fieldsetsidfields' is filler that consumes space without informing an agent.

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 one-parameter read tool with full annotations this is adequate, but with no output schema the description should say more about what a 'list of associated fields' contains (ids vs. full field records) to let an agent plan downstream use.

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?

Single required parameter with 100% schema description coverage ('The ID number of the fieldset'). The phrase 'within a fieldset' in the description corroborates the schema but adds no syntax, format, or lookup guidance beyond it; baseline 3 applies.

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 and resource: returns the list of fields associated with a given fieldset. This is clear enough to distinguish it from generic fieldset retrieval, though it never names the sibling snipeit_gen_fieldsetsid (which presumably returns the fieldset itself) to make the boundary explicit.

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 when-to-use guidance, no prerequisites, no alternatives named. The only context provided is the generated-from-OpenAPI boilerplate, which tells an agent nothing about selection criteria among the many fieldset/field siblings.

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