WerkCV – Dutch CV check

Check a CV (Dutch conventions)

check_cv
Read-onlyIdempotent

Grade a CV (cv, curriculum vitae, résumé) for the Dutch job market: 0-100 score plus a 1-10 grade, the three fixes to make first with the exact lines they refer to, and ATS readability. Use when the user asks 'is my CV good', 'check my CV', 'beoordeel mijn cv' or pastes a CV. Free, no AI, nothing stored. Remove BSN, ID and bank numbers first. The result includes nextStep, a suggested follow-up (usually open_in_editor).

Tool call template

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

  2. First observed

TDQS

A4.2/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnly, idempotent, non-destructive and closed-world, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds non-obvious context: 'Free, no AI, nothing stored' and the prereq 'Remove BSN, ID and bank numbers first', which is real behavioral guidance an agent would not otherwise have. It also foreshadows the nextStep/open_in_editor follow-up.

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?

Front-loaded with purpose, then triggers, then caveats and follow-up; every clause carries information. The trigger-phrase enumeration is slightly padded but directly supports tool selection, so it earns its space.

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?

With an output schema present, the description needn't enumerate return fields, yet it still previews the key ones (score, grade, three fixes, ATS) and flags nextStep. Annotations cover safety and the schema covers parameters, leaving no material gap for correct invocation.

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 both cv_text (200-25,000 chars) and the locale enum are already fully documented in the schema. The description's mention of Dutch-market grading lightly implies locale behavior and repeats the PII-removal warning, but adds no format/syntax detail beyond the schema. 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?

States a specific verb (grade) plus resource (CV) with concrete outputs: a 0-100 score, a 1-10 grade, three prioritized fixes with referenced lines, and ATS readability. The Dutch-market scope and the synonym list (cv, curriculum vitae, résumé) make it clearly distinguishable from match_vacancy and open_in_editor.

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?

Gives explicit trigger conditions, including literal user phrasings ('is my CV good', 'beoordeel mijn cv') and the paste-a-CV case, which is genuinely useful for routing. It stops short of stating when NOT to use it (e.g. use match_vacancy to compare against a job posting), so the alternative selection is only implied.

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