tool_register_event

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

No annotations provided; description only mentions automatic polar coordinate assignment. Lacks details on side effects, constraints (e.g., uniqueness), idempotency, or return values, which is insufficient for a mutation tool.

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

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

Description is efficient, front-loaded with purpose and usage, includes examples and parameter list. Well-structured and readable.

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

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

No output schema; description does not explain return value or confirmation of registration. Missing details on duplicate names or error conditions, making it incomplete for real use.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 0%, but description briefly explains each parameter: event_name required, parent_event_id for sub-events, description optional. Adds modest value beyond schema types.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

Description clearly states it registers a new event into an event space with automatic polar coordinate assignment. Examples differentiate it from sibling tools like store_memory or recall.

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

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

Explicitly specifies when to call (new independent event clues) and provides examples. Encourages proactive identification by the agent, but does not mention explicit alternatives or when not to use.

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