Start secure checkout

start_checkout
Read-onlyIdempotent

Hand the customer to the IbiPoint shop to buy one plan. Returns buy_url (the product page where they tap Buy now and pay securely — card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, with an optional discount code) plus the plan name and price in the customer's bucket or currency. No account needed; the eSIM is emailed right after payment. There is no in-chat order tracking.

  3. First observed

TDQS

A3.9/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already cover the safety profile (readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true, openWorldHint=true, destructiveHint=false), and the description does not contradict them — it clarifies that the actual purchase happens off-platform at the returned URL. It adds real context beyond annotations: accepted payment methods (card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal), optional discount code, no-account requirement, eSIM emailed post-payment, and the absence of in-chat order tracking.

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 action and return value in the first clause, then supporting detail. The sentences are dense and purposeful, though the trailing 'There is no in-chat order tracking' is a slightly loose add-on rather than a load-bearing constraint.

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

Completeness4/5

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

With an output schema present, the description needn't enumerate return fields, yet it still names buy_url and the price/plan-name fields, which is enough orientation. Combined with full schema coverage and annotations, an agent has what it needs; only explicit sibling routing is missing.

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 the baseline is 3. The description reinforces the bucket/currency effect on returned prices and mentions the returned total_for_days for Unlimited Flex, but it adds no syntax, defaults, or edge cases that the parameter descriptions don't already carry.

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?

States a specific verb and resource ('Hand the customer to the IbiPoint shop to buy one plan') and immediately names what it produces ('Returns buy_url ... plus the plan name and price'). No sibling could be confused for this: search_esim_plans, recommend_plan, and get_plan_details are all pre-purchase lookups, while this is the single checkout hand-off.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

Usage is implied rather than stated: 'Hand the customer to the IbiPoint shop to buy one plan' tells the agent this is the purchase step, but there is no explicit when-to-use rule, no prerequisite ordering relative to recommend_plan or get_plan_details, and no alternative named. 'No account needed' and 'no in-chat order tracking' hint at scope but don't route the agent.

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