get_lifestyle_logging_data

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

No annotations are present, and the description only states that it returns data. It does not disclose potential side effects, read-only nature, rate limits, or authentication requirements, placing full burden on the description which remains minimal.

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 concise, using two short sentences plus an Args section. No redundant information or filler is present; it is straight to the point.

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 term 'lifestyle logging data' is vague and does not specify what types of metrics are included (e.g., stress, sleep, steps). Given the many closely related sibling tools, more context is needed to fully understand what this tool returns and how it differs.

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?

The only parameter (date) is described with a specific format (YYYY-MM-DD), which adds meaningful detail beyond the schema's basic type/title. This helps the agent pass a correctly formatted value.

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 ('Get') and the resource ('lifestyle logging data') with a date parameter. It is distinguishable from siblings like get_steps_data or get_sleep_data, though it does not explicitly name an alternative.

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?

No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus other get_* tools. It only explains the date parameter but does not mention conditions or scenarios where this tool is appropriate.

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