compose

Generate a full music pattern by specifying a genre. The pattern is written and played automatically; tempo and key are optional.

Instructions

Generate, write, and play a complete pattern in one step. Auto-initializes browser if needed.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
styleYesGenre: techno, house, dnb, ambient, trap, jungle, jazz, experimental
tempoNoBPM (default: genre-appropriate)
keyNoMusical key (default: C)
auto_playNoStart playback immediately (default: true)
get_feedbackNoGet AI feedback on the generated pattern (default: false)
Behavior2/5

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

No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. It discloses auto-initialization of browser, but fails to clarify what 'write' means (overwrite or append), side effects on existing patterns, or whether a session is required. For a mutation tool, this is insufficient.

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 action. Every word earns its place with no waste.

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?

Despite having 5 parameters and no output schema, the description is minimal. It does not explain the overall effect (e.g., replaces current pattern, creates new), does not mention auto_play behavior despite parameter, and lacks context on what 'write' entails. More information is needed for a high-level tool.

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?

Input schema has 100% description coverage, so baseline is 3. The description adds no additional meaning to parameters beyond what the schema already provides.

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 it generates, writes, and plays a complete pattern in one step, with a specific verb and resource. It distinguishes from sibling tools like generate_bassline or generate_drums which are more specific.

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?

Implies use for quick full pattern creation, but no explicit guidance on when to use versus alternatives like generating individual components. Does not mention when not to use or prerequisites.

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