Where things stand

status
Read-only

Start here, every session. Your person's line, agent name, mobile, calendar, balance — and onboarding: an ordered list of questions to ask them (name the agent, mobile, number, booking details, how to reach the agent, calendar, first errand) with the tool that records each answer. Walk the steps in order, one question at a time, before the first call.

A4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and openWorldHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds valuable context about what is returned and the onboarding workflow, though it does not detail data freshness or authentication requirements.

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 front-loaded with the key directive ('Start here, every session') and packs necessary detail into two sentences. The parenthetical list of onboarding questions is long but earns its place by clarifying the workflow.

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?

For a zero-parameter, read-only status tool with no output schema, the description adequately covers what is returned and how to use the onboarding steps. It could be slightly more complete by clarifying the 'person's line' term or mapping questions to specific sibling tools.

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

Parameters4/5

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

The tool has zero parameters, so the baseline is 4. The description correctly focuses on the tool's output and workflow rather than parameter details, which is appropriate.

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?

The description specifies that the tool returns a status snapshot (person's line, agent name, mobile, calendar, balance) plus an onboarding checklist with ordered questions and recording tools. It is more specific than the bare name 'status', but it does not explicitly distinguish itself from sibling tools like my_details or credits that return overlapping subsets.

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 gives explicit session-start guidance ('Start here, every session') and procedural instructions for onboarding ('Walk the steps in order, one question at a time, before the first call'). It lacks when-not-to-use conditions or named alternatives, but the when-to-use context is strong.

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