Instructions

Download exercise data in FIT format. FIT (Flexible and Interoperable Data Transfer) is a standard format used by fitness devices and apps.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
exerciseIdYesThe exercise ID to download. Required.
Behavior2/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description must disclose behavioral traits. It only states the format and download intent, but does not mention that it is a read-only operation, required permissions, or error handling. This leaves significant gaps for an agent.

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 concise with two sentences, no wasted words, and the first sentence clearly communicates the tool's primary action. However, it could be slightly more informative without sacrificing brevity.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness3/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Given the simple parameter schema and lack of output schema, the description covers the basic purpose and format. However, it lacks details about the response format (e.g., binary file), potential errors, and comparison with sibling format tools, making it adequate but not fully complete.

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% for the single parameter, including its requirement. The description adds no additional meaning beyond what the schema already provides, so baseline score of 3 is appropriate.

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 verb 'Download', the resource 'exercise data', and the format 'FIT'. This distinguishes it from sibling tools like get_exercise_tcx and get_exercise_gpx, which download in other formats.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

The description provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like get_exercise_tcx or get_exercise_gpx. The format mention implies usage, but explicit context or exclusions are missing.

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