Destination hub

get_destination
Read-onlyIdempotent

Multi-mountain destination hub (Niseko, Chamonix, Aspen Snowmass umbrella) with a table of member ski areas. Use ONLY when the user names the hub itself — NOT for photo gallery (→ get_resort_photos on a specific mountain slug) and NOT for resort guide cards (→ get_resort_info).

TDQS

A4.5/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already provide readOnlyHint=true and idempotentHint=true; the description adds that it returns 'a table of member ski areas', giving behavioral context beyond the schema/annotations. No contradictions.

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 sentences with zero waste. The first sentence states purpose and examples; the second provides usage guidelines with alternatives. Every sentence earns its place.

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?

The tool has an output schema, so return values need not be explained. The description covers purpose, usage constraints, and sibling differentiation. Complete for a read-only list tool.

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 description coverage is 100% (both slug and limit have descriptions). The description does not add extra meaning beyond the schema, so baseline 3 is appropriate.

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 starts with 'Multi-mountain destination hub' and explicitly lists example hubs, clearly stating the tool's verb (get) and resource (destination hub). It distinguishes from siblings 'get_resort_photos' and 'get_resort_info' by naming exact conditions.

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 tells exactly when to use: 'Use ONLY when the user names the hub itself'. It provides explicit when-not and alternatives: 'NOT for photo gallery (→ get_resort_photos on a specific mountain slug) and NOT for resort guide cards (→ get_resort_info)'.

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