What sch_place_cross_sheet_connector does on Eda Agent
AI agents use sch_place_cross_sheet_connector to create or update resources in Eda Agent, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Eda Agent environment.
Why sch_place_cross_sheet_connector is rated Medium
The tool name suggests it places a cross-sheet connector in a schematic, which is a write operation (creating a new element). However, the description is empty, so confidence is lowered. Based on naming conventions in Altium Designer and sibling tools, 'place' operations create new schematic objects, making this a Write category action.
From the tool's definition Tool name: sch_place_cross_sheet_connector — 'place' implies creating/adding an object to a schematic
