Update space

update_space
Idempotent

Edit a space's name or slug with idempotent updates. Changing slug updates the URL path, leaving existing links intact.

Instructions

Patch a space's name and/or slug (editor+); idempotent — pass only the field(s) you want to change. Changing the slug updates the space's URL path (existing page ids and links still resolve). To create a space use create_space, to read it use get_space, to remove it use delete_space.

Behavior5/5

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

Describes idempotency and permission level (editor+), and clarifies that slug change does not break existing links. All behavioral traits beyond annotations are covered.

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?

Two concise sentences, no unnecessary words. Front-loads key action and idempotency.

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?

Given the tool's complexity (3 params, no enums, output schema present), description covers all necessary aspects: action, parameters, side effects, alternatives.

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 coverage is 100% with good descriptions. Description merely rephrases the schema's info about omitting fields; adds marginal value.

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 it patches a space's name and/or slug, with correct verb and resource. Explicitly distinguishes from sibling tools (create_space, get_space, delete_space).

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?

Explicitly tells when to use each sibling tool (create, read, delete) and explains behavior of slug change (URL updates, links resolve).

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