Polarion MCP Server

markProject

Registers an existing repository folder as a Polarion project to re-attach existing project data; runs as an asynchronous job, so poll the returned job until it finishes.

Instructions

Registers an existing repository folder as a Polarion project (the inverse of unmarkProject): requestBody names the repository location, the new projectId, its trackerPrefix, and optionally a templateId. Runs as an asynchronous job and returns a jobs resource; poll getJob until it finishes. Use it to re-attach project data that already exists in the repository; to create a brand-new project use createProject. 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

Name	Required	Description	Default
`dry_run`	No	If true, validates the request and returns the exact request that would be sent to Polarion — with the Authorization header redacted and any binary payload summarized by byte length — without actually sending it.
`requestBody`	Yes	Create project parameters.

Output Schema

Name	Required	Description	Default
`data`	No

TDQS

A4.6/5.0

Behavior5/5

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

Goes well beyond the annotations by disclosing asynchronous execution and the required polling loop via getJob, and adds nuance to the non-idempotency annotation ('depends on the specific action; treat it as not guaranteed idempotent'). It also explains the dry_run preview semantics and that results arrive as both text and structured content, which annotations and schema alone do not convey.

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 inverse relationship, then layered with usage routing, job behavior, and the dry_run tip. Dense but every clause carries information; the trailing sentences on dry_run output formatting run slightly long.

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?

Given a nested requestBody, an output schema, and rich annotations, the description covers everything an agent needs: the async job pattern, polling target, non-idempotency caveat, dry_run validation path, and the sibling alternative for the create case.

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 coverage is 100%, so both the top-level dry_run and each nested requestBody field are already documented. The description restates the fields (location, projectId, trackerPrefix, optional templateId) without adding format, constraints, or validation rules beyond the schema.

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+resource (registers an existing repository folder as a Polarion project), names its inverse (unmarkProject), and enumerates the key request fields. It explicitly distinguishes itself from createProject, so an agent can select it without consulting either schema.

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 when-to-use ('re-attach project data that already exists in the repository') and when-not ('to create a brand-new project use createProject'), plus a recommended two-step workflow (dry_run first). No inference required.

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