Add local 360° photos to property

pedra_add_local_panoramas

Add local 360° photo files, by absolute path, into a property in a chosen walking order, so a virtual tour can later be built from that same sequence.

Instructions

LOCAL-ONLY TOOL (this Pedra MCP server runs on the user's own computer, so it can read files from its disk). Upload 360° photo files (2:1 equirectangular JPEG, PNG or WebP) from absolute local paths into a property, in the order given — that order becomes the walking order when you then call pedra_create_virtual_tour with just the propertyId. Files are sent in batches (10 per call, under the 50 MB request limit); a file over ~33 MB can't be sent this way — use pedra_create_upload_link for those. Prefer this over pedra_create_upload_link whenever the 360° photos are files on this computer. Returns the added photos (imageIds are scene ids) and any that failed, each with its path.

Tool call template

Replace each placeholder with a value matching the input schema. Only required parameters are included; add optional parameters as needed.

    },

TDQS

A4.4/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=false, destructiveHint=false and openWorldHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds valuable operational context — local-disk-only access, 10-file batching under the 50 MB request limit, the ~33 MB per-file cap, and the order-becomes-walking-order effect — but does not describe auth requirements or failure handling in depth. Strong added context against an already-covered safety profile.

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 critical LOCAL-ONLY framing and is dense with useful detail, but it is delivered as a single long paragraph. Every sentence earns its place, though the batching and size-limit clauses could be more scannable.

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?

With no output schema, the description steps in by describing the return value (added photos with imageIds as scene ids, plus failed files each with their path). Combined with limits, batching and the sibling cross-reference, an agent has everything needed to call this correctly.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100%, so both parameters are documented structurally, giving a baseline of 3. The description goes beyond that by explaining that the supplied order becomes the walking order used by pedra_create_virtual_tour and by specifying accepted image formats (2:1 equirectangular JPEG/PNG/WebP), adding meaning the schema alone doesn't convey.

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?

States a specific verb (upload/add) and resource (360° photo files from local disk into a property), and explicitly distinguishes itself from the sibling pedra_create_upload_link. An agent can tell immediately what this does and how it differs from the alternative path.

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

Usage Guidelines5/5

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

Gives explicit selection criteria: prefer this over pedra_create_upload_link whenever the photos are files on this computer, and use the upload link instead for files over ~33 MB. Both the when and the when-not are named.

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