Invoke a plugin action (URL-keyed bridge)

pc_post_plugins_by_plugin_id_actions_by_key

Invoke a specific action on a plugin by its ID and action key. Trigger custom plugin behaviors via a URL-keyed bridge.

Instructions

B3.2/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already provide readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, destructiveHint, and openWorldHint. The description adds 'Authorization class: board,' which is a useful behavioral detail. However, it does not disclose other traits like side effects or response behavior. No contradiction with annotations.

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 extremely concise—two sentences—with no redundant information. It is front-loaded with the action statement. However, it could include more detail without becoming verbose.

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?

Given the tool's complexity (nested objects, two required parameters, many siblings), the description is too sparse. It omits explanation of the action's purpose, parameter usage, and return value, despite an output schema existing (not shown). Incomplete for effective agent use.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters2/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

The input schema has 0% description coverage, meaning parameters are entirely undocumented. The description does not explain what pluginId, key, params, or companyId represent, leaving agents to guess. This is a significant gap.

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 clearly states the verb 'Invoke' and the resource 'plugin action' with the qualifier '(URL-keyed bridge)', which distinguishes it from sibling tools like pc_post_plugins_by_plugin_id_bridge_action. The title and first sentence are consistent and specific.

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?

No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as pc_post_plugins_by_plugin_id_bridge_action or pc_post_plugins_by_plugin_id_data_by_key. The description lacks context for selection among many plugin-related siblings.

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