transform_node

Apply position, rotation, and scale to a Godot scene node with a single command.

Instructions

Apply a combined transform (position, rotation, scale) to a node in a scene.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
scaleNo2D: "Vector2(2,2)" or "2,2" | 3D: "Vector3(1,1,1)" or "1,1,1"
positionNo2D: "Vector2(100,200)" or shorthand "100,200" | 3D: "Vector3(0,5,0)" or shorthand "0,5,0"
rotationNo2D: float radians e.g. "1.57" | 3D: "Vector3(0,1.57,0)" or shorthand "0,1.57,0"
node_pathYesNode path (e.g. "Player" or "Main/Player")
scene_pathYesPath to .tscn file (relative to project root)
Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description must disclose behavioral traits. It only states the basic action without saying whether the transform is absolute or relative, whether it modifies the scene file, or any side effects. This is insufficient for a mutation tool.

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, efficient and front-loaded. No waste.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness3/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

The description is functionally clear but lacks usage guidance and behavioral details about how the transform is applied. Given the schema fully documents parameters, it's minimally complete but could benefit from notes on alternatives and side effects.

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 descriptions cover all parameters with formats and examples, so the baseline is 3. The description's mention of 'combined transform' adds slight context that all three properties can be set together, but doesn't add substantial 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?

Clearly states the verb 'Apply' and resource 'combined transform (position, rotation, scale) to a node in a scene.' It distinguishes itself from single-property siblings like set_node_position/rotation/scale by emphasizing 'combined.'

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 such as set_node_position, set_node_rotation, or set_node_scale. No mention of prerequisites or exclusions.

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