create-security-suppression

Create a suppression rule to mute security signals that match a specified detection rule, fine-tuning monitoring without noise.

Instructions

Create a security monitoring suppression rule to suppress signals matching a query

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
nameYesName of the suppression rule
ruleQueryYesRule query — detection rules matching this query will have signals suppressed. Same syntax as search bar
descriptionNoDescription of the suppression rule
enabledNoWhether the suppression rule is enabled (default true)
suppressionQueryNoSuppression query — signals matching this query are suppressed
dataExclusionQueryNoData exclusion query — input events matching this are excluded from detection
expirationDateNoISO 8601 expiration date — after this date, suppression stops
Behavior2/5

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

Annotations show readOnlyHint=false (mutation) and openWorldHint=true. The description does not add behavioral details beyond creation; no mention of side effects, permissions, or lifecycle.

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?

Single sentence with front-loaded verb and resource. 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?

For a 7-parameter tool with full schema descriptions and no output schema, the description adequately captures the core function. Could expand on subtle distinctions between query fields, but not required.

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 description coverage is 100%, so parameter meanings are already explicit. The description adds no additional context beyond what the schema provides, earning a baseline of 3.

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 'Create' and the resource 'security monitoring suppression rule', with the specific purpose 'to suppress signals matching a query'. This distinguishes it from sibling tools like delete-security-suppression and list-security-suppressions.

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 on when to use this tool versus alternatives (e.g., other create tools). It does not specify prerequisites, when not to use, or trade-offs.

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