ztw_list_ip_destination_groups

Read-only

List IP destination groups in Zscaler Zero Trust Workload (ZTW), with optional filters by group type or JMESPath query.

Instructions

List ZTW IP destination groups.

Use exclude_type to omit a group type (e.g. exclude DSTN_FQDN). Read-only.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
queryNoOptional JMESPath expression applied to the results after the API call, for client-side filtering and projection. Field names are exactly what the Zscaler API returns. Examples: "[?enabled==`true`]", "[*].{name: name, id: id}", "length(@)". Omit to get the full records.
exclude_typeNo
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, so read-only nature is covered. Description redundantly states 'Read-only' but adds no additional behavioral traits beyond what annotations provide.

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?

Extremely concise, front-loaded with purpose. Two sentences with no unnecessary words.

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?

Lacks return format, pagination, or limits. For a simple list tool with no output schema, description is adequate but not comprehensive.

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 covers query parameter (50% coverage), but description adds meaning for exclude_type by providing a usage example (e.g., 'DSTN_FQDN'), which is absent from schema. Adds value beyond schema.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

Clear verb and resource: 'List ZTW IP destination groups.' Distinguishes from siblings by name, but no explicit differentiation in description from similar tools like ztw_list_ip_destination_groups_lite.

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 when-to-use or when-not-to-use guidance. Only mentions optional parameter exclude_type. Does not compare to alternative tools or provide context for selection.

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