List workflow methods

list_workflows
Read-only

Lists seven Clipwright workflow methods and their current availability, including which use native executors and which remain execution-blocked.

Instructions

List seven workflow methods and their current availability. Free and read-only. Five methods use native executors; website-proof-demo and kinetic-launch remain execution_blocked. Availability is not account-specific permission to buy.

TDQS

A3.8/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already cover the safety profile (readOnlyHint=true, destructiveHint=false), yet the description adds substantive context: the exact cardinality (seven), that five use native executors, that website-proof-demo and kinetic-launch are execution_blocked, and that availability is not purchase permission. What it omits is only how the result is shaped, which is minor for a static enumeration.

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?

Short and front-loaded: the resource comes first, then cost/safety, then the executor and blocked-state details. 'Free and read-only' partially restates the annotations, a small redundancy, but no sentence is padding.

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

Completeness4/5

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

With no parameters and no output schema, the description carries the burden of telling the agent what the response contains, and it does so by naming the seven-item scope, the executor split, and two blocked entries. A brief note on the fields returned (e.g. method name plus availability flag) would close the remaining gap.

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?

The tool takes zero parameters, so there is nothing for the description to disambiguate and the baseline applies. The text correctly spends no words on inputs.

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 (List) and resource (seven workflow methods plus their current availability), so the agent knows exactly what comes back. It does not explicitly contrast itself with siblings such as get_workflow or prepare_workflow_plan, so the boundary is inferable rather than stated.

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?

The 'Free and read-only' line and the execution_blocked note imply this is a cheap discovery call to run before planning or quoting a workflow. No explicit when-to-use/when-not guidance or named alternative is given, so the agent must infer the placement from the sibling list.

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