thincms_import_redirects

Import a list of redirects from JSON, updating existing redirects with the same source path.

Instructions

Bulk import redirects from a JSON array. Existing redirects with the same sourcePath are updated (upsert).

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
siteIdNoOverride the active site for this single call. Pass to target a specific tenant without mutating shared active-site state — the right pattern when running concurrent agent sessions managing different tenants. Must match a siteId from your THINCMS_SITES config (use thincms_list_sites to inspect). When omitted, the call uses the active site set by thincms_switch_site.
redirectsYesArray of redirect objects to import
confirmProductionWriteNoAcknowledge that this call may write to a configured production site (THINCMS_PRODUCTION_SITE_IDS env var). Required for any POST/PUT/PATCH/DELETE against a production-listed site; ignored otherwise. The error message lists which site triggered the requirement and recommends thincms_snapshot before any production write.
Behavior2/5

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

No annotations provided. Description mentions upsert behavior but does not disclose that it is a write operation that may require production confirmation (confirmProductionWrite parameter). Missing details about destructive potential, rate limits, or auth needs.

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?

Two sentences, front-loaded with purpose, then behavioral note. No filler words. Efficiently communicates core information.

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?

No output schema. Description covers purpose and upsert but does not mention limitations (e.g., max array size), error handling, or the need for confirmProductionWrite parameter for production sites. Adequate but with gaps.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100%, baseline 3. Description adds valuable context: 'bulk import from a JSON array' and 'upsert on same sourcePath', which are not obvious from parameter names alone.

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?

Description clearly states the tool does bulk import of redirects from a JSON array and specifies the upsert behavior based on sourcePath. This distinguishes it from sibling tools like thincms_create_redirect and thincms_update_redirect.

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 individual create/update tools or prerequisites. The description implies bulk import but does not explicitly state that it is the appropriate choice for batch operations.

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