ideogram_remix

Transform an image with a new prompt while preserving its characteristics. Control original image influence with image_weight (0-100) and add style or character references.

Instructions

Transform an image with a new prompt while preserving characteristics. Control influence with image_weight (0-100); takes the style and character references, style codes, preset, palette and an exact resolution.

TDQS

C2.9/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full behavioral burden. It hints at what inputs are accepted (style/character references, style codes, preset, palette, exact resolution) but says nothing about cost, permissions, latency, rate limits, or what the tool returns. The one genuinely behavioral detail, image_weight influencing fidelity to the source, is thin for a 17-parameter generation tool.

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?

Two tight sentences with the core action front-loaded and the control knob second. The second sentence is a bit of a parameter list, but nothing is padded or redundant in a wasteful way.

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

Completeness2/5

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

For a 17-parameter image-generation tool with no annotations and no output schema, the description is inadequate: it omits how the tool differs from sibling remix/edit tools, does not explain interactions among the style inputs, and says nothing about results or cost despite character references carrying billing implications.

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 the schema already documents every parameter including ranges and mutual exclusions (resolution vs aspect_ratio). The description adds the image_weight (0-100) range, which merely repeats the schema, and otherwise only names a subset of the parameters.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

States a specific verb and resource: transform an image with a new prompt while preserving its characteristics. It reads clearly as an image-to-image remix, but never names or contrasts itself with the closest siblings (ideogram_edit, ideogram_generate), leaving the agent to infer the boundary.

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?

There is no when-to-use guidance, no when-not-to-use, and no mention of alternatives. The only usage-flavored sentence is about tuning image_weight, which is a knob, not a selection criterion between this tool and ideogram_edit or ideogram_generate.

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