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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, non-destructive, and closed-world, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds the Dubai timezone frame and the 7/14-day default and cap, but says nothing about auth needs, rate limits, or what an empty result means. Useful but modest added context.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

A single dense sentence with the core concept front-loaded and constraints trailing in a parenthetical. Nothing is wasted, though the stacked em-dashes and parenthetical make it slightly harder to parse than a clean two-clause sentence.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

An output schema exists, so return values need no explanation, and there are only two simple optional parameters. The description supplies the window semantics, defaults, and maximum an agent needs to call it correctly.

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

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

Schema coverage is 50% — 'date' is documented but 'days' carries only type/default/min/max with no prose. The description restates the defaults and cap ('default today in Dubai, 7 days, max 14'), which mirrors rather than enriches the schema, so it lands at the baseline for partial coverage.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

States a specific resource — the night-by-night programme of Dubai Table signature nights and venue nights — with a clear time scope, so an agent can tell it is a discovery/listing tool. It does not explicitly contrast with siblings like list_venues or check_availability, but the content domain is distinct enough to be unambiguous.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The description gives a window definition ('next N days from a date') but no when-to-use guidance, no exclusions, and no named alternative. An agent browsing for events vs. checking availability or listing venues gets no routing help from the text.

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