Search Siima travel eSIM plans

search_esim_plans

Search prepaid travel eSIM data plans by destination country (ISO 3166-1 alpha-2, e.g. "JP"), region (e.g. "Europe"), minimum data in GB, maximum total price, or plan duration in days. Plans come in three coverage types: "country" (one country), "regional" (a named multi-country area such as "Europe+" or "South East Asia"), and "global" (worldwide). A country filter matches every plan that covers it, of any coverage type — so searching country="FR" returns France-only plans alongside the Europe and worldwide plans that include France. For a trip through several countries, filter coverage_type="regional" or "global" to get one eSIM for the whole route; for a single-country trip a "country" plan is usually cheapest. Returned price is the final amount the customer pays at checkout (all fees included), in the requested currency. To buy: call create_checkout_link with the plan id, give the returned URL to the user. They confirm their email with a 6-digit code and pay there; nothing is ordered until they do. After payment they are emailed a link to their eSIM; opening it on their phone gives a one-tap install, the QR code and manual codes. No account needed.

TDQS

A4.6/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

No annotations exist, so the description carries the full burden and does so well: it explains the semantics of the country filter (matches any coverage type that includes it, with a concrete FR example), states that price is the final checkout total with all fees, and describes the downstream purchase flow, email verification, and eSIM delivery. This is far beyond what the schema provides.

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?

Filter semantics are front-loaded and structured logically, then the purchase flow is appended. The purchase-flow portion (email code, link, one-tap install, QR) is useful but somewhat beyond what a search tool needs, making it slightly longer than strictly required.

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?

For a 9-parameter, 0-required filter tool with no output schema, the description covers filter semantics, coverage-type behavior, price meaning, and the hand-off to purchasing. Nothing an agent needs to select and invoke this correctly is missing; only the result shape is unstated, which is a minor gap for a search tool.

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%, so the baseline is 3. The description adds genuine meaning for the country/coverage_type/coverage filters (cross-type matching, the three coverage categories), but duplicates the currency and price semantics already documented in the schema, so it does not exceed the baseline.

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?

Specific verb+resource ("search prepaid travel eSIM data plans") with the full set of filter dimensions enumerated. It also clearly distinguishes itself from siblings by naming the purchase path (create_checkout_link) and the region-name lookup (implied via schema reference to list_regions).

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

Usage Guidelines5/5

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

Explicitly tells the agent which filter to choose for a multi-country trip (coverage_type="regional"/"global") versus a single-country trip ("country" plan is cheapest), and routes purchasing to create_checkout_link with the plan id. Both when-to-use guidance and the alternative tool are named.

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