Submit an ENQUIRY to human providers (two steps; not a purchase)

submit_enquiry

Submits an enquiry to Transport Statement Cost — NOT a purchase, NOT a guaranteed quote. Step 1: call with the answers (keyed by field key from enquiry_fields) and consent=true; it validates and returns a summary, the consent line and a confirmation token — show the person the summary and the consent line. Step 2: only if the person agrees, call again with the same answers, consent=true and the confirmation token; the enquiry is then submitted, and the person receives an email with a link they must click before any provider sees it. Consent means the person has read and agreed to: "Send my contact details to up to three transport planning consultants, chosen by Transport Statement Cost, who'll contact me directly. I'll be emailed each firm's name as my details go to it, and can stop any more firms getting them."

TDQS

A4.4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

With no annotations, the description carries the behavioral burden and discloses the important traits: step 1 validates and returns a summary, consent line, and token; step 2 submits the enquiry and triggers an email-link verification before providers see it. It does not cover failure modes, token expiry, or authentication details, so it is strong but not exhaustive.

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 critical distinction that this is not a purchase and is structured clearly as Step 1 and Step 2. It repeats the full consent text already present in the schema, which is somewhat duplicative, but that repetition supports the instruction to show the consent line.

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?

Given the two-step flow, consent gate, and email verification, the description covers what an agent needs: what step 1 returns, when step 2 is allowed, what submission triggers, and the exact consent meaning. With no output schema or annotations, it is complete enough for correct invocation.

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?

Schema coverage is 100%, so the schema already defines all three parameters; the description adds workflow meaning by explaining that answers are keyed from enquiry_fields, consent must reflect the person's agreement, and confirmation is the step-1 token used only after approval. This is meaningful beyond the schema, though it does not elaborate on answer key formats.

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 states a specific verb and resource: it submits an enquiry to Transport Statement Cost, and it explicitly distinguishes the action from a purchase or guaranteed quote. It also ties the answers to field keys from the sibling tool enquiry_fields, so the tool's role in the flow is unmistakable.

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?

The description gives an explicit two-step usage protocol: call first with answers and consent=true, then call again only after the person agrees and with the confirmation token. It does not name enquiry_describe or other sibling tools as alternatives, so it falls short of full when/when-not/alternatives guidance.

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