executeJob

Starts a Polarion asynchronous job and returns its jobs resource to confirm acceptance; poll getJob with the returned job ID until completion.

Instructions

Starts a Polarion asynchronous job and returns its jobs resource; this response means the job was accepted, not that it finished. Poll getJob with the returned job ID, then use getJobLogContent or getJobResultFileContent after completion. Use run_job_and_wait when bounded polling and a log tail are preferred. Effect: triggers a server-side action rather than a plain resource creation — whether repeating it is safe, a no-op, or rejected depends on the specific action; treat it as not guaranteed idempotent. Tip: set dry_run: true first to validate the arguments and preview the exact request without sending it to Polarion. The executor returns this preview as normal text, and as structured content when the tool declares an output schema.

Input Schema

  4. Added

TDQS

A4.8/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Goes well beyond the annotations by disclosing the async accept-then-poll contract and the honest caveat that repeat behavior 'depends on the specific action' and should be treated as not guaranteed idempotent, which reinforces rather than contradicts idempotentHint=false. The dry_run tip also explains exactly what the preview contains (redacted Authorization header, binary payloads summarized by byte length).

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-loaded with the core action and the accept-vs-complete distinction, and each subsequent sentence covers a distinct concern (polling path, alternative, idempotency, dry run). It is on the long side, and the closing sentence about structured preview output is largely redundant given that an output schema is declared.

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?

For an open-world, non-idempotent, nested-body mutation tool with an output schema, the description covers the lifecycle (accept → poll → fetch log/result), the safety posture, and a validation escape hatch. Nothing needed to invoke it correctly is missing, and return-value details are correctly left to the output schema.

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 `requestBody`, `jobId`, `scope` formats, and `params` are already documented. The description still adds operational meaning to `dry_run` by recommending it as a validation step before sending, though it does not elaborate on how `requestBody.jobId`/`scope` values are discovered beyond what the schema says.

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 and resource ('Starts a Polarion asynchronous job and returns its `jobs` resource') and immediately clarifies the semantics of the response (accepted, not finished). It also distinguishes itself from the read/poll siblings (`getJob`, `getJobLogContent`) and from the blocking alternative (`run_job_and_wait`).

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 an explicit follow-up workflow (poll `getJob`, then `getJobLogContent`/`getJobResultFileContent` after completion), names the alternative `run_job_and_wait` with the condition that selects it ('bounded polling and a log tail'), and prescribes a dry-run-first practice. An agent has a complete decision path.

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