Compare homes side by side

compare_properties
Read-onlyIdempotent

Compares 2 to 5 homes in one call: size, the amenities guests choose by, review counts, each home's own check-in time, deposit and pet policy, and with dates, availability and the stay total for each, for a guest deciding between specific homes. Each home carries accommodation_type and bathroom_sharing: a private room or shared room is not an entire home. Without dates no price is returned.

TDQS

A4.4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnly, idempotent, openWorld and non-destructive, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds non-obvious behavioral facts: the 2–5 home bound, the date-gated price behavior, and the caveat that a private/shared room is not an entire home. These are genuine additions 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.

Conciseness4/5

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

Front-loaded with the core action and scope, then qualifications. Dense but nearly every clause carries information (the type caveat and the date/price rule both matter). Slightly clause-heavy in the middle enumeration, but no filler sentences.

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?

For a read-only comparison tool with an output schema, an agent has everything needed: scope limits, required vs optional dates, what gets priced, and the property-type caveat. Return-value detail is rightly left to the output schema.

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 baseline is 3. The description goes beyond the schema by surfacing a cross-parameter dependency (check_in + check_out required for any price) and by explaining the accommodation_type/bathroom_sharing implications, which the schema does not capture.

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 (compares) and resource (2 to 5 homes) and enumerates exactly what is compared — size, amenities, review counts, check-in time, deposit, pet policy, and, with dates, availability and stay total. This clearly separates it from siblings like get_property_details (single home) and search_properties (find homes).

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

Gives an explicit audience/context — 'for a guest deciding between specific homes' — and a conditional rule ('without dates no price is returned') that tells the agent when price data appears. It does not explicitly name get_live_quote as the alternative for pricing, so the when-not guidance is incomplete.

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