Create Contact Property

create-contact-property

Create a custom contact property to store additional attributes (e.g., company name, plan tier) on your email contacts.

Instructions

Create a new contact property in Resend. A contact property is a custom attribute (e.g. "company_name", "plan_tier") that can be attached to contacts.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
keyYesThe property key. Max 50 characters, only alphanumeric characters and underscores allowed.
typeYesThe property type: "string" or "number".
fallbackValueNoDefault value when the property is not set for a contact. Must match the specified type.
Behavior2/5

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

No annotations provided, and the description only says 'Create' without disclosing idempotency, what happens if the key already exists, authorization needs, or any side effects. For a mutation tool, this is insufficient.

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 concise sentences, front-loaded with the action and resource, and includes an illustrative example. No unnecessary words.

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?

With 3 parameters, no output schema, and no annotations, the description explains the tool's purpose but lacks behavioral details, usage context, and parameter behavior beyond the schema. Could be more complete.

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%, and the schema already describes each parameter (key, type, fallbackValue) with details. The description does not add extra meaning beyond the schema, meeting the baseline.

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?

Clearly states the verb 'create' and resource 'contact property', and provides an example of what a contact property is (custom attribute), distinguishing it from read/delete sibling tools like 'get-contact-property' and 'remove-contact-property'.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines3/5

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 other contact-related tools, no prerequisites or exclusions. The usage is implied by the tool's nature as a creation action, but explicit context is missing.

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