10ML Perfume Finder

Recommend perfumes

recommend_perfumes

Read-onlyIdempotent

Personal perfume and cologne recommendations from taste: fragrances they love or dislike, notes they like or avoid, plus gender, season, occasion, style and family. Every pick says why (shared notes with a loved perfume, a liked note, fits the season). Use when someone says what they enjoy or avoid and wants suggestions ('I love Delina and vanilla, nothing too sweet, for winter evenings', 'my signature scent is Sauvage, what next'). Not for one-off filters without taste (use search_perfumes), not for a single occasion list (use pick_for_occasion) and not for gifts (use find_gift).

TDQS

A4.5/5.0

Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare this as read-only, idempotent, non-destructive, and closed-world, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds useful recommendation behavior: it explains that picks are taste-driven and that each result includes a reason such as shared notes or season fit, which helps an agent understand output character beyond the annotations.

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 front-loaded with purpose, then output rationale, then usage guidance and exclusions. Despite its density, every sentence contributes to selection or invocation and there is no filler.

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 13 optional parameters, full schema coverage, annotations, and an output schema, the description supplies everything an agent needs: purpose, taste-based logic, example queries, exclusions, and sibling alternatives. No meaningful gap remains.

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%, so all 13 parameters are already documented in the schema. The description groups the key inputs into taste signals, gender, season, occasion, style, and family, but does not add syntax or interpretation details beyond what the schema provides.

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 states a specific verb and resource: personal perfume and cologne recommendations from taste. It also explicitly distinguishes itself from search_perfumes, pick_for_occasion, and find_gift, so an agent can route correctly without opening the schema.

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?

It gives explicit when-to-use language and concrete examples ('I love Delina and vanilla...'), plus explicit when-not-to-use alternatives for one-off filters, single occasion lists, and gifts. Nothing about tool selection is left to inference.

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