List appointments

list_appointments
Read-onlyIdempotent

Scheduler appointments in a date range, with staff, job, times and notes. Returns the Scheduler's job appointments that fall between from and to (both days included, at most 31 days), each with its job, customer, staff member, start and end (ISO 8601 with the company's UTC offset), notes and status (accepted, unconfirmed, declined, cancelled). staff keeps only those people, by full name.

A3.9/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnly, idempotent, non-destructive, and closed-world, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds genuine value beyond that: it discloses the inclusive date bounds, the 31-day ceiling, the status vocabulary, the ISO 8601 timestamps expressed in the company's UTC offset, and that the staff filter is a name-based whitelist.

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?

Two sentences, no filler, with the resource and scope front-loaded in the first sentence and the return shape in the second. The opening fragment ('Scheduler appointments in a date range...') is slightly telegraphic, and the second sentence is dense, but nothing is wasted.

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?

There is no output schema, so the description carries the return contract itself and does so thoroughly: job, customer, staff member, start/end with timezone, notes, and enumerated status. Combined with the disclosed 31-day bound, an agent has everything needed to call this correctly.

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, but the description adds semantics the schema lacks: both endpoints are inclusive ('both days included') and the staff parameter keeps only the named people by full name. This clarifies range and filter behavior beyond the terse schema descriptions.

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

Purpose4/5

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

The description names a specific verb (list/return) and resource (Scheduler job appointments) with clear scope: a date range with an optional staff filter. It implicitly separates itself from schedule_appointment (creation) by describing a read/list operation with filtering, though it never names the sibling explicitly.

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: the 31-day range cap and the staff filter suggest when the tool fits, but there is no explicit 'use this when...' guidance and no mention of alternatives such as get_job or schedule_appointment. An agent must infer the boundary conditions.

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