list_booking_services

List a venue's services — what it offers, with price and duration. Pass place_slug (from search_places) to list the services of a specific VENUE — a salon, clinic or studio listed in this directory; that is what you want in almost every case, and it is the only form whose serviceId works with create_booking. Omitting place_slug lists the directory site's own services instead, which most sites do not have. Returns name, description, price, duration in minutes, and bookableViaMcp. Services are listed for EVERY venue, including those with no online booking system — check bookableViaMcp: when it is false, id is null and you cannot book through create_booking, so point the user at bookingUrl or the venue's page instead.

A4.5/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries full burden. It discloses that services are listed for EVERY venue, including those without online booking, and explains the significance of bookableViaMcp. It does not mention auth or rate limits, but as a list tool, this is acceptable.

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?

The description is concise with 4 sentences, front-loading the main purpose and then providing essential details. Each sentence adds value, though it could be slightly more terse.

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?

Given no output schema, the description compensates by listing returned fields (name, description, price, duration, bookableViaMcp) and explaining edge cases. It is complete for a simple list tool.

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

Parameters5/5

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

Schema coverage is 100%, and the description adds substantial meaning to the single parameter place_slug, explaining its effect (venue services vs directory services) and strongly recommending it. This goes beyond the schema's description.

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 clearly states the tool lists a venue's services with price and duration, distinguishing between using place_slug (for a venue) vs omitting it (for directory's own services). It also mentions what is returned and the key field bookableViaMcp, making the purpose unambiguous.

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?

The description explicitly advises when to use place_slug (almost every case) and when to omit it (directory services, rare). It also warns about venues without online booking and advises checking bookableViaMcp. It doesn't directly compare to siblings but provides clear usage context.

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

A4.1/5.0
Disambiguation5/5

Each tool targets a distinct domain action, with clear boundaries between similar operations (e.g., create_booking vs request_reservation vs reserve_event_tickets). Descriptions provide enough context to avoid confusion.

Naming Consistency5/5

All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern in snake_case, e.g., create_booking, get_availability, list_events. No mixing of styles or ambiguous verbs.

Tool Count4/5

28 tools is slightly above average but appropriate for a multi-feature neighborhood directory covering bookings, events, movies, menus, forms, etc. Each tool serves a distinct purpose, justifying the count.

Completeness4/5

The tool set covers most expected operations for a directory site: search, details, reviews, booking, events, menus, blog, FAQ, forms, etc. Minor gaps like cancellation or user booking history are acceptable given the domain scope.
