Reset user password

keycloak_user_reset_password
Destructive

Reset a user's password in Keycloak by providing the new password and explicit confirmation. Use after user creation to set credentials, invalidating the old password.

Instructions

Destructive write that overwrites a user's password with the supplied value, returning "Password reset." on success or a "Not reset: " message if confirmation was declined. Requires explicit confirmation: pass confirm=true, otherwise the operation is blocked pending approval. Commonly used right after keycloak_user_create to give a new account credentials. Not idempotent in effect, since it invalidates the previous password.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
idYesThe Keycloak user id (UUID) whose password will be set. Required; obtain it from keycloak_user_search.
confirmNoMust be true to proceed; if omitted or false, the reset is blocked pending confirmation. Optional; defaults to false.
passwordYesThe new plaintext password to set for the user. Required.
temporaryNoIf true, the user must change this password at next login. Optional; defaults to false (permanent password).
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already provide destructiveHint and idempotentHint. Description adds specific return messages on success/failure, the confirmation requirement, and that it invalidates the previous password, adding value beyond annotations.

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 with a usage tip, front-loaded with key information. Every sentence serves a purpose, no redundancy.

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

Completeness5/5

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

Given 4 parameters and no output schema, the description adequately explains return behavior, required confirmation, and typical usage context (after user creation). Complete for the tool's complexity.

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%, so description adds marginal value for parameters. It explains the confirm parameter's role but does not describe id or password beyond the schema. Baseline 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?

Description clearly states it is a 'Destructive write that overwrites a user's password' with the supplied value, specifying the verb and resource. It distinguishes from sibling tools by mentioning common usage after keycloak_user_create and noting non-idempotency.

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?

Explicitly states the need for confirm=true and that it is commonly used after user creation. Does not explicitly mention alternatives, but the tool is unique among siblings.

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