Polarion MCP Server

postPageRelationships

Create rich page relationships in Polarion by providing the page, relationship name, and target resources. Preview the exact request with dry_run before making changes.

Instructions

Creates a list of Rich Page Relationships. Effect: creates a new resource on each call — calling it again with the same input creates a duplicate; it is not idempotent. Tip: set dry_run: true first to preview the exact request Polarion would receive, without changing anything. On tools with a typed output schema, this preview is returned as an error-flagged result since it is not real tool output -- read the text content regardless of that flag.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
dry_runNoIf 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.
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.
pageNameYesThe Rich Page's ID/name within its space — its stable identifier, not its display title.
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.
requestBodyYesThe Relationship body.
relationshipIdYesThe relationship's name as it appears under `relationships` in the owning resource (e.g. `assignee`, `author`, `watches`, `linkedWorkItems`), not an ID of an individual link entry.

TDQS

A4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

The description explicitly states the tool is not idempotent, reinforcing the idempotentHint=false annotation, and adds the dry_run preview behavior including the error-flagged result nuance. This goes beyond the annotations by explaining how to test without side effects, which is valuable for a create operation.

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?

The description is fairly concise with three sentences: purpose, effect, and tip. The tip is somewhat verbose but contains essential information about dry_run and the error-flagged preview. It is front-loaded with the purpose, and the structure is logical. Could be slightly tightened but overall efficient.

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

Completeness3/5

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

There is no output schema, and the description does not explain the success response or typical errors. It does mention the dry_run preview behavior, which is a form of context, but it lacks details on what a successful call returns or any prerequisites beyond the schema. Given the complexity (nested requestBody, oneOf), more context could be added, but it is not critically incomplete.

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 all parameters are documented in the schema. The tool description adds no extra parameter semantics beyond the schema. The requestBody description is minimal ('The Relationship body.'), but the schema's oneOf structure provides some detail. Baseline 3 is appropriate since the schema carries the parameter meaning.

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 tool creates a list of Rich Page Relationships, using a specific verb and resource. It distinguishes from sibling tools like getPageRelationships, patchPageRelationships, and deletePageRelationships by focusing on the create action, and it's unambiguous which resource type it targets.

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 purpose and resource are clear, so an agent can infer when to use it (for creating page relationships). However, it doesn't explicitly contrast with postPlanRelationships or postWorkItemRelationships, though the resource name makes it obvious. The dry_run tip provides guidance on safe usage but not on selecting this over alternatives.

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