get_availability

Read-onlyIdempotent

Answers 'can I get tickets for this event?' for one event: refreshed from the live source at call time, returning current availability and starting price. max_price is a hard gate — the event is reported only if its starting price is at or below it (otherwise availability:null with a note); quantity is informational context only, not a reservation. Use get_event when you need the event's full record, get_deals to browse by budget instead. Note: the catalog API does not expose section-level price bands, so only totals and the starting price are returned.

Tool call template

TDQS

A4.8/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already cover the safety profile (readOnly, idempotent, openWorld, non-destructive), and the description adds real behavior beyond them: data is refreshed from the live source at call time, max_price acts as a hard gate, quantity does not reserve anything, and a gated miss returns availability:null with a note. The closing caveat that section-level price bands are unavailable sets return expectations.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

Front-loaded with the core question and answer, then constraints, then alternatives, then the API limitation. It is dense but every sentence carries information; the middle clause mildly duplicates the schema's max_price and quantity descriptions, which keeps it from a 5.

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?

With no output schema and readOnly annotations, the description carries the return-value burden itself: it names the fields returned (current availability and starting price), the gated null case, and the catalog limitation on band-level pricing. Nothing needed to call this correctly is missing.

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

Parameters4/5

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

Schema coverage is 100%, so the field meanings are already documented and the description largely restates the max_price gate and quantity-is-informational semantics. It does add one thing the schema lacks: the concrete failure shape (availability:null with a note) when the gate excludes the event, which is useful invocation context.

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 opens with the exact question the tool answers ('can I get tickets for this event?') and scopes it to one event, with a specific verb and resource. It explicitly distinguishes itself from siblings by naming get_event (full record) and get_deals (browse by budget), so an agent can select it without inspecting other schemas.

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 routing rules: use get_event for the full record, get_deals to browse by budget. It also states the condition under which max_price suppresses the result, so the agent knows when a null response is expected rather than an error.

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