getSpaceDocuments

Read-only

List documents from a Polarion project space with filtering, sorting, and pagination options to retrieve exactly the set you need.

Instructions

Returns a list of Documents from a given Project Space. Cardinality: targets the full collection or a batch. For a single item by ID, use getDocument instead.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
sortNoComma-separated list of fields to sort by, in priority order; prefix a field with `-` for descending order (e.g. `-updated,title`).
queryNoPolarion Lucene-style query string to filter results: field:value clauses combined with AND/OR, phrases in quotes. Exact supported field names depend on the resource type being queried.
fieldsNoSparse fieldset selector: an object keyed by resource type (e.g. `workitems`) whose value is a comma-separated list of attribute names to return (e.g. `id,title,status`), reducing payload size. Omit to return the default field set.
includeNoComma-separated list of related resource types to embed in the response (e.g. `author,attachments`) so they don't require a separate follow-up call. Omit to return only the primary resource.
spaceIdYesThe Document Space ID (a folder-like grouping of documents/pages within a project). Use `_default` (no quotes) to address the project's default space.
projectIdYesThe Polarion project ID (its URL segment, e.g. `myproject`), case-sensitive. Required to scope the request to one project; call getProjects to list valid IDs.
page_size_NoMaximum number of items to return in this page (e.g. `100`). Use together with `page[number]` to paginate through a large result set.
page_number_No1-based page number to fetch when the result set is paginated (e.g. `2` for the second page). Combine with `page[size]`; omit to fetch the first page.

TDQS

A4/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare `readOnlyHint: true` and `openWorldHint: true`, covering the read-only nature. The description adds the cardinality note ('targets the full collection or a batch'), which is some extra context. However, it does not elaborate on pagination behavior, default return size, or any side effects—though the schema covers pagination parameters. Given the annotation coverage, this is adequate but not rich.

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 two sentences with no filler. The core purpose and scope are front-loaded in the first sentence, and the alternative is given in the second. Every word contributes to the agent's understanding, making it highly concise and well-structured.

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

Completeness4/5

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

Given the rich input schema (100% parameter coverage) and the presence of an output schema, the description does not need to explain return formats or parameter details. It covers the essential use case (list documents in a space) and the primary alternative (single document by ID). It could mention pagination advice, but that is already documented in the `page_size_` and `page_number_` parameters, so the description is sufficiently complete for the tool's purpose.

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%, meaning every parameter is documented in detail in the input schema (e.g., `spaceId`, `projectId`, `sort`, `query`, `fields`, `include`, `page_size_`, `page_number_`). The tool description does not add any parameter-level guidance beyond the schema, so the baseline score of 3 applies as 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?

The description clearly states the action ('Returns a list of Documents'), the scope ('from a given Project Space'), and the cardinality ('full collection or a batch'). It explicitly distinguishes from `getDocument` by naming the alternative for single-item retrieval, making it easy for an agent to select this tool over the sibling for list operations.

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?

The description provides a clear when-not-to-use instruction by directing agents to `getDocument` for single-item ID lookups. However, it does not mention other list-related siblings like `getAllDocuments` or `getDocuments`, leaving some ambiguity about when this tool is preferred over those. The mention of 'Project Space' hints at scoping but is not explicit about excluding alternatives.

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