Wardrobe Connect: Find clothes that match a description

wardrobeconnect_find_clothes
Read-onlyIdempotent

Wardrobe Connect. Find clothes that match a short description of one item, such as "black pleated wide-leg trousers" or "cream cable-knit jumper". Takes only the item description and, if wanted, a size, a price limit, the condition and a country; it needs nothing else from the conversation. Returns eBay listings in the Clothing, Shoes and Accessories category, closest matches first and then cheapest first, plus search links for other shops and a Facebook Marketplace search phrase. Listings must match the colour, fabric and kind of garment named, and men's or women's if given; kids' items only when asked for. Adult, fetish and costume listings are never shown, repeat listings of the same item count once, and listings far below the typical price for the search (usually bait or junk) are left out.

Input Schema

TDQS

A4.4/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already cover safety (readOnly, idempotent, non-destructive, open world), yet the description goes well beyond them: result ranking (closest match then cheapest), sources returned (eBay plus other-shop links and a Facebook Marketplace phrase), match requirements (colour/fabric/garment, men's vs women's, kids only on request), and exclusion rules (adult/fetish/costume never shown, duplicates collapsed, below-market bait listings removed).

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 tool identity and worked examples before the operational detail, and most clauses (ranking, exclusions, dedupe) carry real decision value. It is long and slightly repetitive about colour/fabric/garment matching, which costs it the top mark.

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-value burden — and it does, describing ranking order, the eBay source, the supplementary links and the Facebook Marketplace phrase. Combined with annotation coverage of safety and the 100%-documented input schema, 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.

Parameters3/5

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

Schema description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents each parameter including enums and the size-conversion and condition-normalisation behaviour. The description restates the optional fields (size, price limit, condition, country) without adding syntax or format detail beyond the schema, so the baseline of 3 applies.

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 (find) and resource (clothes matching a short description of one item), and the example queries make the scope concrete. Implicitly distinguishes itself from the sibling wardrobeconnect_find_clothes_by_image, which takes an image rather than text.

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?

Explicitly says it needs only the item description plus optional size, price, condition and country, and that it "needs nothing else from the conversation" — useful anti-pattern guidance against dumping chat context. It never names the image-based sibling as the alternative path, so the when-to-use-vs-alternative dimension is only implied.

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