Get in-progress daily games

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

No annotations provided, so description must disclose behavior. It only states the tool returns current games, omitting details on response format, ordering, or effect of onlyMyTurn parameter. Lacks transparency for a read operation.

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?

Single sentence, very concise. However, over-conciseness leads to missing critical information. Could be restructured to front-load key details while maintaining brevity.

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 no output schema, no annotations, and two parameters, the description is insufficient. Does not explain return structure, pagination, or how onlyMyTurn modifies results. Incomplete for effective tool usage.

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 has 0% description coverage for parameters. Description only implies the username parameter via 'a player', but does not explain the onlyMyTurn parameter at all. Fails to compensate for missing schema descriptions.

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?

States it returns 'daily (correspondence) games a player currently has in progress', clearly indicating verb and resource. Distinguishes from sibling tools like get_game_archives (historical) and get_games_by_month (monthly archives). However, 'daily games' could be more explicitly defined.

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 on when to use this tool versus alternatives like get_games_by_month or get_game_archives. Does not mention that this is for current games only, nor explain the onlyMyTurn filter's role.

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