evite_add_guest

Add guests to an Evite event draft guest list; confirmation is required, and no emails are sent until the event is sent.

Instructions

Add guests to an event's draft (un-sent) guest list. Nothing is emailed until you evite_send. 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). NB: guests only persist on a finalized (sent/sending) event, not a bare new draft.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
guestsYesGuests to add to the draft (un-sent) list.
event_idYesEvite event id (event_id from evite_list_events).
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.

A4.8/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Adds substantial behavior beyond annotations (which only declare readOnlyHint=false, openWorldHint=true, destructiveHint=false): the confirmation gate, the confirmToken two-step fallback with reuse prohibition, and the critical caveat that guests only persist on a finalized event, not a bare draft. This is high-value disclosure an agent could not derive from schemas or annotations.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

Front-loaded with the core action and the no-email guarantee, then progressively discloses the confirmation protocol and persistence caveat. Dense but every clause earns its place; the 'NB' and 'MCP_CONFIRM_MODE' references are slightly jargon-heavy.

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?

Covers action, side effects, confirmation protocol, token lifecycle, and a persistence footgun – everything needed to call this mutation safely. No output schema exists, but the important response semantics (preview/confirmToken in phase 1) are described inline.

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 baseline is 3, but the description adds real semantics for confirmToken (fallback-only, never invented, never on first call, ignored under elicitation) that the schema description only partially covers. The 'guests' semantics ('draft/un-sent list') are also reinforced.

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

Purpose5/5

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

Specific verb (add) + resource (guests) + scope (a draft, un-sent guest list) that clearly distinguishes it from evite_update_guest, evite_remove_guest, and evite_send. An agent can route correctly without opening the schema.

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

Usage Guidelines5/5

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

Explicitly states when nothing is emailed ('until you evite_send') and gives the full confirmation flow, including the two-phase fallback when elicitation is unsupported. This is exactly the when/when-not/alternatives guidance the dimension asks for.

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