Set an event alarm

set_event_alarm
Destructive

Sets an alarm for an event from its page, on Luma, Partiful, Eventbrite, Sweatpals, Posh or any site that publishes its event: LFG reads the event's name, start time, place, picture and description, and the alarm rings that long before it starts. For a moment on the clock with no event page, use a time alarm. The picture becomes its wallpaper, the event page its button link, and the description its note unless a note is given. A link whose start time cannot be read, or an event too soon for the chosen lead, returns an error. Returns the alarm and its link.

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
linkYesThe link to the event's page.
noteNoA note from the person about the alarm, in their words, shown under its trigger on the alarm's page and in the Daily drop. Up to 500 characters; an empty note clears it.
vibeNoThe feel of the alarm in a few words, and the kind of background and colour if the person named them: "fun poppy anime", "calm", "a simple bell", "hype for a token launch", "ocean waves, purple", "neon and chaotic". LFG picks a sound and a look from its library to match: a live, moving wallpaper when one fits, otherwise a drawn one. Wallpaper words given here replace the look's words; a colour given here makes it a plain gradient in that colour.
placeNoWhere the event is, with its town, when the person said it or the page shows it: "The Midway, San Francisco". The brief at the ring carries the forecast there. Left out, the venue the page names is looked up.
reachNoWho can join: private (only the person), friends (people on its list, or with its link), public (anyone; listed in Discover).private
soundNoThe shelf of our library closest to the sound they asked for, read for what they mean: lo-fi or study beats is music/chill, "make it a vibe" might be music/chill, music/rnb or music/beats, hype me up is voices/hype_man, yelling at me is voices/drill_sergeant. "own" for one of their own uploads ("my song"). "soundcloud" when they asked for SoundCloud, or no shelf is close: a genre we have no shelf for (k-pop, drum and bass), or an artist or a song by name; put what to look for in song_search, and they play SoundCloud songs and tap one. Leave it out when they said nothing about the sound. A song from Apple Music, or a song or voiceover made for them: leave this out, make the alarm, and say they get it in the alarm's Studio, under its sound, after Arm it. Never say you will make one. The wallpaper follows the song unless one is asked for.
themeNoA theme or holiday: the alarm gets a song in its moods, a new alarm a title written for it, and a wallpaper dealt for it for variety, one of the theme's pictures, a GIF, a live wallpaper or a gradient. A vibe given as well shapes that ("cozy", "degen"); wallpaper words or a title given are kept. One of: birthday (Birthday), love (Love), night_out (Night out), shopping (Shopping), winter (Winter), christmas (Christmas), hanukkah (Hanukkah), diwali (Diwali), halloween (Halloween), thanksgiving (Thanksgiving), friendsgiving (Friendsgiving), new_years (New Year's Eve).
titleNoShort name for the alarm. When absent, the event's name. Up to 60 characters; it reads best under about 25.
sourceNoThe event in another app this alarm is for, such as a meeting in the person's calendar. With the same source again, the person's existing alarm for it is changed (its time and title) instead of a second one being made.
surpriseNoFor a friends alarm: keep it a surprise. People who join see a curtain instead of its title, picture, sound and note until it rings. Free on every plan.
link_modeNoFor a friends alarm, what its link does: open (anyone who opens the link rides along, the default) or approve (anyone else with the link asks first and the person says yes or no). Invited people walk straight in either way.
time_zoneYesThe person's IANA time zone, "America/New_York".
add_groupsNoFor a friends alarm: names of the person's friend groups whose members to let in, "Family". Members get a notification.
add_peopleNoFor a friends alarm: up to 20 people to let in, as usernames of the person's LFG friends or as email addresses. Friends get a notification; an email address with no LFG account gets an invitation. Any other username is refused.
gif_searchNo2 to 5 plain words to search GIFs with, written for this alarm, "solana pump celebration", "sleepy cat monday": used if the look dealt is a GIF, which has no words of its own. Fill it whenever you make an alarm.
look_wordsNoShort words of your own for the wallpaper, written for this alarm, "SOL TO THE MOON", "EXAM DAY", "BEACH BY 6": used if the look dealt is a live wallpaper or a gradient, in place of its own words. 2 to 4 words. Unlike wallpaper_words, the look is still dealt. Fill it whenever you make an alarm.
button_linkNo
ring_beforeNoHow long before the start the alarm rings.1_hour
song_searchNoWith "soundcloud": what to look for there, in their words, "k-pop", "fred again".
upload_nameNoWith "own": the name they gave the upload, "my dog picture". Left out, one of theirs is used.
words_colorNoColour of the words as hex, any colour, "#D7FF00".
hide_triggerNoNeeded with surprise, true or false: whether to also keep back when and why it rings, so people who join only know that it will. A surprise is not made until it is given.
snooze_timesNoHow many times it can be snoozed: 3, 10 or unlimited.
silent_snoozeNotrue to snooze without the spoken roast LFG plays by default.
snooze_minutesNoMinutes each snooze lasts: 5, 10, 15, 30 or 60.
wallpaper_kindNoOnly when they named a kind: a gradient, a live (moving) wallpaper, a gif or meme, or "own" for one of their own uploads ("my wallpaper", "the picture I uploaded"). Left out, LFG deals one of every kind in turn.
send_beacons_toNoA webhook the person got from the other side (a Discord channel's hook, a Zapier catch hook, their own agent's address): every beacon on this alarm is POSTed there as JSON, signed with the alarm's horn token. Public https only. An empty string stops it.
wallpaper_colorNoWallpaper background colour as hex, any colour, "#5B2BFF".
wallpaper_wordsNoWords drawn on the wallpaper, "WAKE UP"; a line break starts a new line. Up to 40 characters; it looks best as 1 to 4 short words, since the words are drawn as large as the square allows.
people_confirmedNoWhether the person has confirmed the people and groups being added. Nobody is added or told without it.

TDQS

A4.1/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare this is a non-idempotent, destructive, open-world write, so the bar is lower; the description still adds real behavior by explaining what is auto-derived (picture becomes wallpaper, page becomes button link, description becomes note unless one is given). It also discloses two failure modes — an unreadable start time and an event too soon for the chosen lead both error — which annotations cannot express. It stops short of describing what "destructive" means in practice or what happens when an alarm already exists for that event.

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 action and source, then the alternative, then derived fields, then error cases, then the return value — a sensible order with no filler. The opening sentence is dense with colon-chained clauses across five site names, which makes it slightly harder to parse than a shorter split would be.

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?

For a 30-parameter tool with nested objects, the description covers the core happy path, two error conditions, and the return shape (valuable since there is no output schema). The social features — reach, surprise, adding people, beacons — are left entirely to the schema, which is acceptable given 97% coverage but leaves the description silent on a major slice of what this tool can do.

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 97%, so the schema already documents all 30 parameters in depth; the baseline of 3 applies. The description's only genuine additions are the note defaulting rule and that "the alarm rings that long before it starts" for the lead time, both of which are useful but marginal against such thorough field descriptions.

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?

"Sets an alarm for an event from its page" states a specific verb and resource, then names the supported sources (Luma, Partiful, Eventbrite, Sweatpals, Posh, any publishing site) and what LFG extracts from that page. The scope boundary against set_time_alarm is drawn in the same breath, so an agent can distinguish the two without inspecting either schema.

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 when-not and the alternative: "For a moment on the clock with no event page, use a time alarm." That is a clear routing rule with a stated condition. It does not address the other alarm siblings (lottery, price, trader, watch), though those are distinguished by resource name and would rarely be confused with an event page.

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