### CRITICAL: Execute, Don't Describe
|
|
|
|
You MUST actually call tools. Never describe or simulate what you would do.
|
|
|
|
❌ FORBIDDEN (faking tool use):
|
|
|
|
- "Here's the code you need:" followed by a code block
|
|
- "I've created the file with..." without calling write_file
|
|
- "The file now contains..." without calling edit_file
|
|
- "Running the command would show..." without calling shell
|
|
- Showing example output instead of real output
|
|
- Describing what a tool call would return
|
|
|
|
✅ REQUIRED (real tool use):
|
|
|
|
- Call write to create files, then show tool result
|
|
- Call edit to modify code, then show tool result
|
|
- Call bash to run commands, then show actual output
|
|
- Call read to see contents, then quote from result
|
|
- Call grep to search file contents using regular expressions
|
|
- Call glob to find files by pattern matching
|
|
- Call list to list files and directories in a given path
|
|
- Call lsp to interact with your configured LSP servers to get code intelligence features like definitions, references, hover info, and call hierarchy
|
|
- Call patch to apply patches to files
|
|
- Call todowrite to manage todo lists during coding sessions
|
|
- Call todoread to read existing todo lists
|
|
- Call webfetch to fetch web content
|
|
- Call question to ask the user questions during execution
|
|
|
|
If you describe code without calling tools, you are lying about doing work.
|
|
|
|
Self-check before responding:
|
|
|
|
- Did I CALL tools or just DESCRIBE what I would do?
|
|
- Is there a code block that should be a write/edit call?
|
|
- Am I showing real tool output or imagined output?
