Create Test Manager Folder

tm.create_folder

Creates a new folder within a project to organize test cases. Requires the project ID and optionally a parent folder ID for nesting.

Instructions

Creates a new folder inside a LambdaTest Test Manager project, to organize test cases. Requires the project's ID; optionally nest it under an existing folder by passing that folder's ID as parent_id, otherwise it's created at the project's root. Use this before adding test cases that need a home. Do not use this to update or move an existing folder, and do not call it speculatively - creating a folder is a real, persistent action.

Behavior3/5

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

With no annotations, the description carries the full burden. It discloses that creating is a real, persistent action, but does not mention authentication requirements, rate limits, or what is returned. For a mutation tool, more detail on side effects would be beneficial.

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 concise with 3 sentences that front-load the core action, then add usage context and warnings. Every sentence adds value without redundancy.

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?

For a simple creation tool with no output schema and no annotations, the description covers the main purpose and usage context. However, it lacks mention of return values, error conditions, or idempotency, which would improve completeness.

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 0%, so the description must provide meaning. It explains project_id and parent_id, but the required name parameter and the optional description parameter are not described. This provides partial but incomplete coverage.

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 explicitly states it creates a new folder in a LambdaTest Test Manager project, specifies required project_id and optional nesting via parent_id, and distinguishes from updating or moving folders. It also contrasts with sibling tool tm.create_testRunFolder by focusing on test case folders.

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?

Clear guidance to use before adding test cases, with explicit warnings against speculative calls and against using it for update/move. However, it doesn't directly compare with the very similar sibling tm.create_testRunFolder, which could cause confusion.

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