  2. First observed

TDQS

C2.4/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=false, destructiveHint=false, and openWorldHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds only the 'no deletes' note and says nothing about whether creation is immediate, what happens on duplicate names, whether dueDate/interval fields are optional in practice, or what the output schema returns.

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?

Two short sentences with no filler, and the core action is front-loaded. However, the second sentence about deletes is somewhat tangential to a creation tool and consumes space that could have described the parameters.

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

Completeness2/5

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

With 9 parameters, 4 required, low schema coverage, and minimal annotations, the description is far too thin for an agent to call this correctly — particularly around intervalType/intervalValue vs. dueDate semantics. The output schema existing relieves the need to describe returns, but parameter behavior and validation remain unaddressed.

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

Parameters1/5

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

Schema description coverage is only 22% across 9 parameters, so the description must compensate — and it does not. It never explains vehicleId, name, category, intervalType, intervalValue, reminderDaysBefore, or the relationship between doneDate and dueDate. The schema documents only doneDate and dueDate, leaving most params undocumented anywhere.

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?

States a specific verb (creates) and resource (TuneWorks maintenance reminder or service item), which is clearer than the bare title. It does not explicitly distinguish itself from siblings like update_maintenance, complete_maintenance, or archive_maintenance, but the 'creates' verb does most of the work.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

The only usage signal is the negative 'Deletes are not supported,' which faintly gestures at archive_maintenance but never names it or any alternative. There is no guidance on when to create a reminder vs. a service item, or how this differs from update_maintenance or complete_maintenance.

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