tiendanube_clear_cart

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

With no annotations, the description carries full burden but only says 'remove all items'. It does not disclose whether applied coupons or shipping are affected, if the cart is deleted or just emptied, or any required permissions. This leaves significant behavioral uncertainty.

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?

The description is extremely concise, using a single line that packs the purpose clearly. However, it sacrifices completeness for brevity, which prevents a perfect score.

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?

Given the simplicity of the tool and the lack of output schema, the description is insufficient. It does not clarify which parameter is required (both are optional in schema), nor does it explain the outcome beyond 'remove all items'. More context on idempotency or side effects would improve completeness.

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 description coverage is 100% (both parameters have descriptions in the schema). The description adds no additional meaning beyond what the schema already provides, meeting the baseline for moderate coverage.

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?

The description explicitly states 'Remove all items from the cart', using a specific verb and resource that clearly distinguishes it from siblings like 'tiendanube_remove_cart_item' (single item removal) and 'tiendanube_add_cart_item'.

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?

The description implies use for emptying the entire cart, but does not provide explicit guidance on when to use it versus alternatives like 'tiendanube_remove_cart_item' for selective removal. No exclusions or prerequisites are mentioned.

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