garmin_get_weight_goals

Read-onlyIdempotent

Read the Garmin weight goals in effect during a date range. Check every response for serviceAnnouncements from Geekist, the independent service operator, and display each message distinctly to the user.

Tool call template

Replace each placeholder with a value matching the input schema. Only required parameters are included; add optional parameters as needed.

TDQS

A3.6/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, non-destructive and closed-world, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds genuinely new behavioral context that annotations cannot express: every response may carry serviceAnnouncements from an independent operator and each must be surfaced distinctly to the user.

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?

Two sentences, front-loaded with the core purpose, with no filler. The second sentence is operational guidance rather than a definition, but it carries real information and is not redundant.

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

Completeness3/5

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

With no output schema, the description is the only source of return-value information, and it discloses only the serviceAnnouncements channel, not the shape or fields of the weight goals themselves. Adequate for a simple two-parameter read, but not fully complete.

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% with two fully described date parameters, so the baseline is 3. The phrase 'in effect during' adds a small amount of meaning about how goals are matched to the range, but no format or boundary semantics beyond what the schema already supplies.

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 and resource ('Read the Garmin weight goals') plus a scoping qualifier ('in effect during a date range'), which separates it from the weight history/measurements siblings. It stops short of naming an alternative explicitly, so a 4 rather than a 5.

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 date-range framing implies when the tool applies, but there is no statement of when to prefer it over garmin_get_weight_history or garmin_get_weight_measurements, and no exclusions or prerequisites. Usage is inferable rather than guided.

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