evite_send

Destructive

Send invitations to an event's ready-to-send draft guests; requires confirmation before emails go out.

Instructions

Send the invitation to the ready-to-send (draft) guests of an event ("Send now"). THIS EMAILS GUESTS. If a call fails or times out it may still have sent — check evite_list_guests (delivery status) before calling again. 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
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.

TDQS

A4.6/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare destructiveHint=true and openWorldHint=true, but the description goes further by disclosing that real guests are emailed (irreversible external effect), that a timeout may still have sent the invitation (non-idempotency), and that a confirmation gate applies. It does not cover rate limits or per-invitee partial-failure behavior, which keeps this short of a 5.

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 action and the caps-lock warning, and every clause carries information; nothing is filler. It is dense to the point of being hard to scan, with nested parentheticals in the confirmation sentence, so it falls short of a model two-sentence structure.

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?

For a destructive, no-output-schema, one-required-param tool, the description covers the safety gate, the retry hazard, the recovery tool, and the confirmation-token protocol. An agent has everything it needs to call this correctly and to avoid double-sending.

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 description coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3, and the description earns an extra point by framing confirmToken as a phase-2-only artifact tied to the preview and MCP_CONFIRM_MODE, which is context the schema field alone does not convey. event_id semantics are left entirely to the schema.

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?

States a specific verb and resource ('Send the invitation to the ready-to-send (draft) guests of an event') and scopes it to draft/ready-to-send guests, which cleanly separates it from siblings like evite_send_message, evite_broadcast and evite_rsvp. An agent can identify the tool 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?

Gives explicit pre-call conditions (user confirmation first), an explicit failure path ('If a call fails or times out... check evite_list_guests before calling again'), and names the alternative tool to consult. It also states what the token-based path is for versus clients with elicitation support.

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