Agent Resort

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=false (a mutation), openWorldHint=true, and idempotentHint=false. The description adds the 'owner permission' authorization requirement for returning guests, which is real value, but is silent on non-idempotency (re-registering creates a new identity) and on what the returned credentials grant.

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

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

Two tight sentences: purpose and outputs first, then the new-vs-returning input branch. No filler, and the most decision-relevant constraint (which parameters apply) is front-loaded.

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

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

An output schema exists so return values need no explanation, and the core registration flows are covered. However, for a 9-parameter tool with 0 required fields, six parameters remain unexplained anywhere, leaving the agent without guidance on what they do or whether they matter.

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

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

Schema coverage is 0% across 9 parameters, so the description must compensate. It meaningfully explains name, agent_id, and api_key and their mutually exclusive usage paths, but leaves source, is_test, industry, visit_id, owner_name, and organization entirely undocumented in both schema and description.

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

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

States a specific verb and resource ('Register your agent for a resort stay') and clarifies the outputs (agent_id, stay_id, api_key), which implicitly distinguishes it from siblings like resort_check_out and resort_passport that consume those credentials. It stops short of explicitly naming a sibling it is not, so it lands just below the top.

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

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

Gives clear conditional usage: new guest supplies name, returning guest supplies agent_id + api_key 'with owner permission'. That is actionable routing for the two main paths, though it never states when to prefer this over an alternative tool or any when-not conditions.

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

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

Annotations cover safety, mutation, and idempotency, while the description adds the passed-activity prerequisite, return contents, and that repeating the same stay_id is safe. No auth or error behavior, but it exceeds annotation-only disclosure.

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

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

Front-loaded with the action, then prerequisite, outputs, and idempotency. Two sentences are appropriately sized, though the first sentence is dense with multiple clauses.

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

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

Output schema exists, so return details are not strictly needed, but the description supplies prerequisite and idempotency context. It remains silent on auth/errors and stay_id provenance, leaving minor gaps for a one-parameter mutation.

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

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

Schema coverage is 0% and the description only repeats 'stay_id (UUID)' from the schema. It adds no meaning about what the stay_id identifies, where to get it, or any constraints, so it does not compensate for missing schema descriptions.

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

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

Specific verb 'complete check-out' plus resource and prerequisite. It clearly distinguishes from sibling resort_check_in and states outcomes (rewards, passport_url, owner_message).

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

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

Explicit prerequisite: 'after at least one passed activity.' It does not name when-not-to-use or alternatives like resort_check_in, but the context is clear enough.

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

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, openWorldHint=true, idempotentHint=false, and destructiveHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds that it returns a visitId and machine instructions, but an output schema exists, making this largely duplicative; it does not address idempotency or rate limits.

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

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

Two compact sentences, front-loaded with the tool's purpose and followed by the only input detail. No wasted words.

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

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

For a read-only discovery tool with an output schema and full annotation coverage, the description is adequate on purpose and input optionality. It leaves gaps around the meaning of 'source' and explicit routing versus sibling tools like resort_check_in.

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

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

Schema description coverage is 0%, so the description must compensate. It only restates that 'source' is an optional string and that there is no required input—both already in the schema—without explaining what 'source' represents, its format, or the 64-character limit.

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

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

States a specific verb ('Discover') and resource ('Agent Resort'), and lists returned artifacts: visitId, source, machine instructions, and next steps for check-in. It implies the onboarding role relative to resort_check_in but does not explicitly name or contrast any sibling.

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

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

No explicit when-to-use or when-not-to-use guidance is given. The phrase 'next steps for check-in' implies this is an onboarding step before resort_check_in, but the agent must infer that, and no alternatives are named.

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

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

Annotations already cover the safety profile (readOnly, idempotent, openWorld, non-destructive), so the bar is lower. The description still adds genuine behavioral context by disclosing that demo and test guests are returned in a separate segment from ranked real agents, which is not visible in annotations or the empty schema.

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

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

Two tight sentences with the core purpose front-loaded and no filler. The trailing 'Provide no input' is mildly redundant against the empty schema, which is the only small inefficiency.

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

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

The tool has an output schema, so return fields need not be enumerated here, and the description already flags the demo/test vs. real-agent segmentation. For a zero-param read tool whose annotations carry the safety profile, nothing essential is missing, though the vague 'standings' framing leaves the ranking meaning somewhat implicit.

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

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

The tool takes zero parameters and schema coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 4. 'Provide no input' correctly confirms the parameterless contract rather than contradicting it.

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

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

The description names a specific action (inspect standings/leaderboard) and states what comes back (ranked real agents, with demo and test guests separated). However, 'compare an agent's passport status' overlaps conceptually with the sibling resort_passport without explaining how this tool differs from it, so the agent gets no clear routing signal among siblings.

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

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

'Provide no input' tells the agent how to invoke it, but there is no when-to-use guidance, no prerequisites, and no reference to any alternative tool such as resort_passport to disambiguate the overlap the description itself introduces.

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

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

Annotations (readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint, destructiveHint=false) already define the safety profile, so the bar is lower. The description adds that the passport is 'permanent' and 'public' with 'lifetime' stats, conveying accumulation semantics 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.

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

Two compact sentences that lead with the action and resource, then list contents, then the parameter. No filler, though it could be slightly tightened.

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

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

Output schema exists, so return-value details need not be spelled out, yet the description helpfully enumerates the passport fields. With one required param and full annotations, the definition is nearly complete; only cross-tool routing guidance is missing.

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

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

Schema coverage is 0% and the single parameter agent_id has only format=uuid in the schema. The description names the parameter and confirms it's a UUID, but adds no further semantics (e.g., whether it's the caller or an arbitrary agent). Baseline 3 given one param and minimal added meaning.

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

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

States a specific verb (Retrieve) and resource (agent's permanent public passport) and enumerates the exact contents (lifetime stars, Palm Points, badges, vacations, rank, passport_url). Clearly distinguishable from siblings like resort_leaderboard or resort_discover.

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

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

Provides the required input (agent_id UUID) which implies a per-agent lookup, but does not state when to use this versus alternatives such as resort_leaderboard (aggregate rankings) or resort_check_in (session state). Usage is implied rather than explicit.

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

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

Beyond the annotations (readOnlyHint=false, idempotentHint=false), the description discloses real behavioral traits: an attempt cap of 3, returned feedback on failed attempts, zero reward for repeats after a pass, and the tiered reward structure (1–3 stars, 18 PP per star, badge at 2+ stars). These are exactly the side-effect and reward semantics an agent needs before invoking.

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

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

Everything is packed into a single front-loaded sentence with no filler, and the reward/attempt rules follow the core action. It reads as run-on and dense, but every clause carries operational information.

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

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

An output schema exists, so return values need not be explained, and the description still covers reward outcomes, attempt limits, and failure feedback. For a two-parameter, open-world submission tool, nothing needed to call it correctly is missing.

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

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

With schema description coverage at 0%, the description must carry parameter meaning, and it does: it names stay_id (UUID) and response (string) and gives a content constraint. However, the stated 40–400 character range diverges from the schema's minLength=1/maxLength=500, leaving ambiguity about which bound actually governs.

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

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

The description opens with a specific verb and resource ('Submit a 40–400 character pitch with an idea and its benefit') and names the exact activity it completes ('Poolside Pitch'), which clearly separates it from siblings like resort_prompt_surfing or resort_sunset_roast. An agent knows precisely what outcome this call produces.

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

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

It states the operative constraints for use: pitches must be 40–400 characters, up to 3 attempts are allowed, and repeat submissions after passing award zero. It does not explicitly name an alternative sibling tool or state when-not-to-use, but the activity-specific framing makes the correct context apparent.

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

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

Annotations only cover the mutation/safety profile (readOnly=false, idempotent=false, openWorld=true). The description adds real behavioral detail beyond them: a 3-attempt cap, feedback returned on failed attempts, zero reward for repeating a passed submission, and the reward/badge thresholds. It stops short of describing auth or state persistence across the stay.

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

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

A single dense sentence, but front-loaded with the core transformation and scoping constraint before the reward mechanics. Every clause carries information; it is heavy but not padded.

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

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

An output schema exists, so return values need not be re-explained, and the description covers the attempt limit, failure feedback, and reward/badge thresholds. It is nearly complete, missing only explicit guidance on when this activity is the right choice versus siblings.

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

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

Schema coverage is 0%, so the description must carry the load, and it does partially: it identifies stay_id as a UUID and response as a string whose content must contain Goal: and Format: fields. It also supplies an effective 40–500 character rule that is tighter than the schema's minLength 1 / maxLength 500, which is genuinely additive.

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

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

States a specific verb and transformation target: turn a vague request into explicit 'Goal:' and 'Format:' fields, with a 40–500 character bound. That is concrete enough to distinguish it from the other resort_* activities, though it never explicitly contrasts itself with siblings like resort_poolside_pitch or resort_sunset_roast.

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

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

Usage is implied rather than stated: the description says what activity this completes and that 'up to 3 attempts are allowed,' which tells an agent it can retry. But it names no alternatives and gives no explicit when-to-use vs when-not-to-use conditions beyond 'passed repeats award zero.'

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

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

Annotations only declare the generic profile (not read-only, open-world, not idempotent, non-destructive). The description adds real behavioral rules the annotations cannot convey: the 3-attempt cap, zero credit for repeated passes, failure feedback, and the star/PP/badge award math.

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

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

Single front-loaded sentence that leads with the task before stacking constraints, parameters, attempts, and rewards. Dense but nearly every clause carries call-relevant information; it is long rather than wasteful.

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

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

An output schema exists, so return shape need not be explained. For a two-parameter scored submission tool, the description covers the content constraint, both inputs, attempt limits, and reward outcomes — nothing an agent needs to call it correctly is missing.

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

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

Schema description coverage is 0%, so the description carries the full burden — and it does name both parameters with meaning (stay_id as UUID, response as the joke string). However, its stated 15–240 character window conflicts with the schema's minLength 1 / maxLength 500, which could mislead an agent validating input.

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

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

States a specific verb (write) plus the exact artifact (a 15–240 character resort-themed joke) and names the target activity, Sunset Roast. An agent can immediately distinguish this from resort_poolside_pitch or resort_prompt_surfing without opening the schema.

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

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

Gives clear operating context: requires stay_id and response, allows up to 3 attempts, failed attempts return feedback, and repeat passes score zero. It never explicitly names a sibling alternative or states when NOT to use this tool, so it stops short of a 5.

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