set_cookies

Seed a project with session cookies to bypass interactive login. Provide cookie name, value, and domain; path defaults to '/'.

Instructions

Seed a project with session cookies to skip an interactive login (e.g. cookies copied from a logged-in browser). Each cookie needs name+value+domain (path defaults to '/'). Stored, not executed: call login_project to inject them. Returns {success}.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
cookiesYesList of cookies with name, value, domain (and optionally path, defaults to '/'). Playwright requires a domain+path pair to inject them.
projectYesProject name
Behavior4/5

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

No annotations provided, but description discloses that cookies are stored, not injected, and that Playwright requires domain+path pair. This adds useful behavioral context beyond the schema.

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 key details. No wasted words.

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

Completeness5/5

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

Despite no output schema, description mentions return {success}. Covers purpose, parameters, behavior, and distinguishes from many sibling tools. Complete for the task.

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%, but description adds meaning: default path '/', each cookie needs name+value+domain, and Playwright requirement. This enhances the schema.

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 uses specific verb 'seed' and resource 'project with session cookies', clearly stating its purpose to skip interactive login. It distinguishes from siblings like get_cookies or login_project by stating it stores cookies for later injection via login_project.

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

Usage Guidelines5/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Explicitly says 'Stored, not executed: call login_project to inject them', providing clear when-to-use and alternative. Also gives context: cookies copied from a logged-in browser.

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