getGlobalEnumeration

Retrieve a global enumeration from Polarion by specifying its context, name, and target type. Filter returned fields and include related entities as needed.

Instructions

Returns the specified Enumeration from the Global context.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
enumContextYesThe Enumeration context. (Allowed values are '~', 'plans', 'testing' and 'documents'. Use '~' for Work Item or general enumerations.)
enumNameYesThe Enumeration Name.
targetTypeYesThe Enumeration target type. (Use '~' when there is no specific type for the enumeration.)
fieldsNoFilter returned resource fields. See <a href="https://docs.sw.siemens.com/en-US/doc/230235217/PL20231017526942799.polarion_help_sc.xid2134849/xid2134871" target="_blank">REST API User Guide</a> for details.
includeNoInclude related entities. See <a href="https://docs.sw.siemens.com/en-US/doc/230235217/PL20231017526942799.polarion_help_sc.xid2134849/xid2134871" target="_blank">REST API User Guide</a> for details.
Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, and the description only states that it returns an enumeration, without disclosing behavioral traits like read-only nature, required permissions, or side effects. The description carries the full burden but is minimal.

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?

The description is a single concise sentence that effectively communicates the core purpose without unnecessary words.

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

Completeness2/5

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

Given 5 parameters (3 required, 2 optional with nested objects), no output schema, and many sibling tools, the description is too minimal. It does not explain the return format, the meaning of enumeration, or how parameters interact, leaving the agent underinformed.

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 description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents parameters. The description adds no additional meaning beyond the schema, justifying a baseline score of 3.

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?

The description clearly states the verb 'Returns' and the resource 'specified Enumeration from the Global context', but does not distinguish this tool from sibling enumeration-related tools like getProjectEnumeration.

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 usage guidance or when-not-to-use information is provided. The description does not indicate when to prefer this over alternatives such as getProjectEnumeration or getCurrentEnumerationOptionsForDocument.

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