get_session_context

Read-only

At the start of an ordering conversation, load the user's default address, dietary and budget preferences, and local time to streamline ordering.

Instructions

Load the user's ordering context: default delivery address, saved dietary/budget preferences, and current local time. Call once at the start of an ordering conversation.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
intentYesOne short goal line, e.g. 'Help the user order food'. No user verbatim or personal specifics.
Behavior4/5

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

Discloses that the tool loads address, preferences, and local time, adding context beyond the annotations (readOnlyHint, openWorldHint, destructiveHint) which already indicate safe read-only behavior. No contradictions.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Two sentences: first delivers the core purpose, second gives usage guidance. No unnecessary words.

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 simple context-loading tool with one parameter and annotations providing safety profile, the description adequately explains what the tool returns and when to call it.

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 covers the single parameter 'intent' completely (100%), so the description adds no additional parameter meaning beyond the schema.

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 clearly states the tool loads the user's ordering context including default delivery address, dietary/budget preferences, and local time, which is a distinct resource from sibling tools that handle search, cart, or order management.

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?

Explicitly says 'Call once at the start of an ordering conversation', giving clear context for when to use, though it does not mention scenarios where it should not be used or provide alternatives.

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