  4. First observed

TDQS

A3.8/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare read-only, idempotent, and non-destructive behavior. The description adds that results include address, capacity, and geolocation, but this is likely covered by the output schema. No additional behavior like pagination details or rate limits is disclosed.

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

Conciseness5/5

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

A single, efficient sentence that is front-loaded with the action and resource. No filler or redundant phrasing. Clearly communicates the tool's purpose and key output.

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?

The tool is simple with 100% schema coverage and an output schema, so the description is largely sufficient. However, it doesn't explicitly differentiate from the sibling 'venue' tool, which could lead to confusion. Otherwise, it's complete for a search/read operation.

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 all 7 parameters are already described in the schema. The description just lists some of these parameters (name, city, state, country, postal code) without adding extra meaning beyond what the schema provides. 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 clearly states the tool's function: searching SeatGeek venues by multiple criteria. It specifies the verb 'Search', the resource 'venues', and the output (details including address, capacity, geolocation). The plural 'venues' naturally distinguishes it from the sibling 'venue' tool.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

The description implies usage for finding venues by location/name but doesn't explicitly discuss when to use this over the singular 'venue' tool or other search alternatives. No exclusions or alternative instructions are provided.

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