toggle_automation

Idempotent

Activate or pause one automation workflow.

This is consequential in one direction: ACTIVATING starts enrolling contacts, which means real emails begin going out on the workflow's schedule without further confirmation. Pausing stops new enrolments. Read the workflow with get_automation first so you know what activating will actually send.

Contacts already part-way through a paused workflow are held rather than dropped, so pausing is not a cancellation. Safe to repeat. Requires an API key.

A5/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

The description discloses significant side effects beyond the annotations: activating sends real emails without further confirmation, pausing holds contacts (not drops), and it is safe to repeat. This goes well beyond the idempotentHint and provides critical context about the tool's impact.

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?

The description is concise yet comprehensive. Each sentence conveys essential information about purpose, consequences, usage advice, and safety, without redundancy. The structure logically flows from action to impact to recommendation.

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 consequential nature, the description covers all necessary context: what it does, why it's consequential, how to use it safely (read first), and the precise behavior on pause. It even addresses idempotency and authentication. No gaps are apparent.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters5/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

While the schema already describes automation_id and active, the description adds semantic depth: active=true activates and starts enrollments, active=false pauses and holds contacts. It also clarifies the behavior for contacts already in progress, which is not evident from the schema alone.

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 the tool's action: 'Activate or pause one automation workflow.' It uses a specific verb and resource, and the effect (starting/stopping enrollments) is unambiguous, distinguishing it from read or list operations.

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?

The description provides strong usage guidance: it advises reading the workflow with get_automation first, explains the consequences of each action, and clarifies that pausing holds contacts rather than cancelling. This helps an agent decide when to use this tool versus alternatives like get_automation or other mutating actions.

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

A3.7/5.0
Disambiguation3/5

Most tools are cleanly separated by resource and action, and the descriptions do a good job of cross-referencing related tools. However, there are several close clusters—get_analytics vs generate_report, get_deliverability_score vs run_deliverability_audit, check_dmarc vs verify_domain, and list_emails vs list_inbox_conversations vs get_email—that could cause an agent to pick the wrong one. The detailed descriptions reduce but do not eliminate this ambiguity.

Naming Consistency5/5

Tool names follow a consistent snake_case verb_noun pattern throughout: create_, get_, list_, send_, toggle_, and so on. Even multi-word actions like select_ab_test_winner and categorize_inbox_emails stay uniform. The only slight deviation is the bare verb upgrade, but it is readable and does not break the overall pattern.

Tool Count2/5

54 tools is far beyond the typical well-scoped MCP surface and lands heavily in the 'too many' range. While the domain is broad, many tools could be consolidated—multiple analytics/reporting tools, several deliverability checks, and separate email/inbox listing tools create redundancy. The sheer number increases selection overhead and makes the toolset harder for an agent to navigate reliably.

Completeness3/5

The core email marketing lifecycle is represented: domains, contacts, campaigns, templates, automations, sends, and analytics all have main operations. However, there are notable gaps—no update/delete for campaigns, templates, forms, or automations; no create/update/delete for forms; no sandbox enable/disable; and no way to install marketplace items. These are workable gaps but would cause failures for agents trying to perform full lifecycle management.
