clickup_create_chat_view_comment

Post a comment into a legacy ClickUp Chat view by providing the view ID and comment text. Use for conversation-type views only.

Instructions

Post a comment into a Chat view.

Posts to POST /view/{view_id}/comment. This is the legacy Chat-view comment surface (views of type=conversation); the newer, richer Chat API (channels + messages, all v3) lives in tools/chat_messages.py — prefer that module for new Chat integrations, and this tool only when you are already working with a Chat-type view id.

When to Use:

  • To post into an existing Chat view when you already have its view_id.

When NOT to Use:

  • To send a message in a modern Chat channel — use clickup_send_chat_message (tools/chat_messages.py) instead.

Returns: A confirmation string with the new comment's id, hist_id, and timestamp, or an Error ... string on failure.

Examples: params = {"view_id": "105", "comment_text": "Standup notes for today."}

Error Handling: 404 means the view id is wrong or is not a Chat-type view.

Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already indicate it's a write operation (readOnlyHint=false). Description adds concrete return format (id, hist_id, timestamp) and error handling (404 meaning). Does not detail side effects beyond creation.

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?

Front-loaded with main action, then logically organized into endpoint, when to use, returns, example, and error handling. No unnecessary words.

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?

Provides enough context with legacy vs new API distinction, return format, error handling, and example. Could be more explicit about response structure but text description suffices.

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 already provides descriptions for all parameters (100% coverage). Description includes an example but adds no new meaning beyond 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?

Explicitly states it posts a comment into a Chat view and distinguishes from the newer chat message tool (clickup_send_chat_message). Clear verb and resource.

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?

Dedicated 'When to Use' and 'When NOT to Use' sections with explicit alternative tool name and scenario.

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