dismiss-calendar-event-reminder

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

Annotations already indicate destructiveHint=true. The description adds that the reminder 'won't re-fire' and that no request body is needed, which is useful. However, it does not detail side effects, permissions, or response behavior beyond what annotations provide.

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 succinct: two clear sentences plus a tip. Every sentence adds value without redundancy.

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?

The description covers the core action and mentions related tools for finding reminders. For a simple mutation with one required parameter, it is fairly complete. It lacks detail on the exact response (e.g., success status) but is adequate given the simpler nature.

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 100%, so baseline is 3. The description adds no extra meaning about parameters (eventId, includeHeaders, excludeResponse) beyond their schema definitions.

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 clearly states the action ('dismiss') and the resource ('reminder that has been triggered for an event'). It distinguishes from sibling 'snooze-calendar-event-reminder' by specifying it dismisses so the reminder won't re-fire.

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 advises pairing with 'list-calendar-events' or 'get-schedule' to find active reminders, and notes that no request body is required. This provides clear context for when to use the tool, though it does not explicitly contrast with the snooze sibling.

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