Skip or un-skip an upcoming service

crowntown_skip_service

Skip or restore an upcoming compost collection day by providing route and client-location IDs from the services list. Confirmation is required before the change is applied.

Instructions

Skip (or un-skip) an upcoming collection day. Pass the rid + clid from crowntown_list_upcoming_services. Asks the user to confirm first: a confirmation prompt where the client supports one; otherwise the first call returns a preview and a confirmToken, and only a repeat call with that token proceeds (see MCP_CONFIRM_MODE).

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
ridYesRoute id (data-rid) from crowntown_list_upcoming_services.
clidYesClient-location id (data-clid) from crowntown_list_upcoming_services.
actionNo"skip" to skip the day, "unskip" to restore it. Match the action from the upcoming-services list.skip
confirmTokenNoONLY for the two-step confirmation fallback (a client without MCP elicitation). The confirmToken from this same tool's phase-1 "confirmation-required" response, passed back ONLY after the user has seen that preview and explicitly approved it in chat — never on the first call, never invented, never reused. Call again with the same arguments. Ignored when the client supports elicitation.

TDQS

A4.4/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

It clearly discloses the confirmation behavior: a native prompt when supported, otherwise a two-step preview-and-confirmToken flow. This goes well beyond the annotations and is essential for correct invocation.

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

Conciseness5/5

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

Three tight sentences with no filler. The action is front-loaded, and the confirmation flow is summarized efficiently with a pointer to MCP_CONFIRM_MODE.

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

Completeness5/5

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

The description covers the core purpose, required parameters, and the non-obvious confirmation/token behavior. Together with the 100%-covered schema and annotations, an agent has enough to select and invoke the tool correctly.

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

Parameters4/5

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

Schema coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The description adds real value by tying rid/clid to crowntown_list_upcoming_services and summarizing when confirmToken is needed, supplementing the schema's detailed parameter docs.

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

Purpose4/5

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

The description states a specific verb and resource: 'Skip (or un-skip) an upcoming collection day.' This is clear and concrete, though it does not explicitly differentiate the tool from sibling tools such as crowntown_report_missed_pickup.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

The description gives explicit guidance on where to get the required ids ('Pass the rid + clid from crowntown_list_upcoming_services') and explains the confirmation flow. It provides clear context but does not state when-not-to-use or name alternatives.

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