Invite contacts

lemonvite_invite_contacts
Destructive

Use this when the user wants people from their Lemonvite contact list added to an invitation's guest list, e.g. "find Alice in my contacts and invite her". Find contact_ids with lemonvite_search_contacts first; this tool takes the saved name, email and phone from the contact, so never retype them. Up to 50 contacts per call. It behaves like lemonvite_add_guests: already-invited contacts fail alone, the guest_limit applies, and published phone overages return payment_required for the whole call with none of its guests saved. Explain the credit cost and new phone allowance. If needed: Buy the creditsToBuy shortfall with lemonvite_start_checkout without event_id. Then retry with authorized_credits after explicit host confirmation. On a published invitation the added contacts are invited immediately. Contacts with a phone number require host_confirms_sms_consent=true, meaning the host confirmed they agreed to receive SMS about this event.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
event_idYesLemonvite event_id returned by lemonvite_create_invitation or lemonvite_list_invitations. Identifies the event to act on; not a guest invitation_id or RSVP URL.
contact_idsYes1–50 contact_ids returned by lemonvite_search_contacts. Each becomes a guest on this invitation.
authorized_creditsNoMaximum shared account credits the host explicitly agreed to spend across this entire request. Default 0: return payment_required without spending. Explain the credits used and the increased phone allowance, and obtain confirmation before setting this.
host_confirms_sms_consentNoSet true only when the host confirms these contacts agreed to receive SMS about this event. Required when any contact has a phone number.

A4.8/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Far exceeds the annotations (destructiveHint/idempotentHint/readOnlyHint). It discloses per-item failure semantics ('already-invited contacts fail alone'), the guest_limit interaction, and atomic whole-call failure on published phone overages ('none of its guests saved'), plus immediate-invite behavior on published invitations and the credit/SMS-consent obligations.

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-loads the trigger and example, then layers workflow, limits, and failure modes. It is dense and runs long, but nearly every sentence carries operational information an agent needs; only the credit-flow block is slightly verbose.

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 an output schema present and full schema coverage, the description fully covers the gaps that structure cannot: sibling routing, the contact-vs-guest distinction, limits, partial/atomic failure behavior, and the credit and SMS-consent preconditions. Nothing needed to invoke it 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 already 100%, so the schema documents each field. The description still adds meaning by explaining that the tool pulls the saved name/email/phone from the contact rather than the caller supplying them, and clarifies the credit-confirmation semantics tied to authorized_credits and host_confirms_sms_consent.

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 (invite/add) and resource (contacts from the Lemonvite contact list into an invitation's guest list), with a concrete example utterance. It explicitly distinguishes itself from siblings by contrasting with lemonvite_search_contacts (used to find ids) and by likening behavior to lemonvite_add_guests.

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?

Gives an explicit trigger ('when the user wants people from their contact list added'), a precondition workflow (find contact_ids with lemonvite_search_contacts first), the correct alternative behavior (never retype name/email/phone), and the follow-up repair path (buy credits with lemonvite_start_checkout, then retry) with the confirmation gate spelled out.

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