Reset proxy gateway or list password

regenerate_proxy_password
Destructive

Rotate a shared proxy gateway password or a chosen list login; previous credentials stop working immediately. Update any affected client connections afterwards to restore access.

Instructions

Rotate a shared proxy's gateway password (the gateway shown by get_proxy_status), or with list_id the login of one list. The old password stops working immediately - update every client using it. Rotating the gateway leaves list logins unchanged, and the other way round.

TDQS

A4.7/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Adds critical behavior beyond the annotations: the old password stops working immediately, every client must be updated, and rotating one credential type leaves the other unchanged. These details are exactly what an agent needs to avoid breaking integrations, especially given the destructiveHint annotation.

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?

Three tight sentences with no wasted words. The core action and scope are front-loaded, followed by the immediate-impact warning and the scope relationship between gateway and list rotations.

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?

The description covers the action, the two possible targets, the immediate impact, and the mutual exclusivity of gateway versus list rotation. Output schema exists, so return values need not be documented, and annotations already cover the destructive mutation profile.

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%, so the baseline is 3, but the description adds meaningful context: proxy_id refers to the gateway shown by get_proxy_status, and list_id selects a list login instead of the gateway password. This clarifies the optional parameter's effect beyond the schema's own description.

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?

States a specific verb (Rotate) and resource (shared proxy's gateway password or a list login), and distinguishes the two behaviors via list_id. It also names get_proxy_status, helping the agent identify the affected gateway target.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

Clearly explains the conditional use of list_id to rotate a list login instead of the gateway password, and clarifies the reciprocal scope of each rotation. It does not explicitly state when not to use the tool or contrast it with sibling tools like rotate_proxy_ip, but the usage context is otherwise clear.

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