getProjectEnumeration

Retrieve a specific enumeration from a Polarion project by providing its context, name, and target type. Returns the list of allowed values for work items, plans, testing, or documents.

Instructions

Returns the specified Enumeration from the Project context.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
projectIdYesThe Project ID.
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.

Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description must carry the full burden. It only states 'returns' but does not disclose permissions, error behavior, or side effects. This is insufficient for a tool with six parameters.

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 extremely concise: a single sentence with no fluff. It is front-loaded and efficient for a simple getter tool.

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 the lack of an output schema, the description should explain the response structure. It does not. Also, with six parameters and nested objects, the description is too brief to be fully informative.

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 baseline is 3. The description adds no additional meaning beyond the schema; it does not clarify parameter interactions or formats.

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 'Enumeration from the Project context', distinguishing it from global enumeration tools. However, it does not explicitly contrast with sibling tools like getGlobalEnumeration.

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 guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as getGlobalEnumeration or patchProjectEnumeration. The description lacks any usage context.

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