Read-onlyIdempotent

Flight status and airport delays, live: by airport code, FAA ground stops and delay programs with average and max delay (US), live departure and arrival boards with gates and status (Norway), current METAR and TAF weather (any ICAO airport) and aircraft overhead; by callsign, the aircraft's live position, altitude and speed. Input: airport (IATA or ICAO) or callsign; optional flight, direction, hours_ahead. $0.25 per call. Returns: query{}, airport{iata, icao, name, city, country, lat, lon}, delays{status, ground_stop, ground_delay, closure, arrival_delay, departure_delay, runways, notices}, board{departures[], arrivals[], attribution}, weather{metar, taf, flight_category...}, aircraft[], aircraft_scope, coverage{}, attribution[], sections_failed[], notes[], checked_at.

A4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare the safe read-only, idempotent, open-world profile, so the bar is lower. The description adds genuinely useful traits beyond them: a per-call cost ($0.25), a partial-failure surface (sections_failed[], coverage, notes, attribution) implying results can be incomplete, and case-sensitive localized human strings. That is meaningful operational context.

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

Conciseness3/5

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

It is well front-loaded with the core purpose and inputs. However, the long trailing enumeration of every return field duplicates the output schema (which exists), making it denser than necessary; that redundancy dilutes the concise structure.

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?

With an output schema present, the description need not explain return values, yet it adds the essentials an agent needs: the two input modes, cost, and the partial-failure/coverage model. Coverage is strong, with only the absence of sibling routing keeping it from a 5.

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 coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents all six parameters with examples and constraints. The description only recaps the input names (airport, callsign, flight, direction, hours_ahead) and adds the IATA/ICAO and mutually-exclusive hints already present in the schema, so baseline 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?

The description states a specific verb+resource (live flight/airport status) and clearly enumerates what each input mode returns: airport code gives FAA delays, boards, METAR/TAF and overhead aircraft; callsign gives live position, altitude and speed. An agent can distinguish the two operating modes and the tool's domain 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.

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

It implies usage clearly by framing the two mutually-exclusive input paths ('by airport code... by callsign...'), which routes the agent to the right parameter. It stops short of naming when-not or pointing to a sibling (e.g. maps_weather for general weather), so it is clear context but lacks explicit alternatives.

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