Tools

Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions

NameDescription
opentable_list_reservationsA

List the authenticated user's OpenTable reservations. Defaults to upcoming; pass scope="past" or scope="all" to broaden. Each entry includes the security_token needed to cancel or modify.

opentable_find_slotsA

List available reservation slots at a specific OpenTable restaurant for a date + party size. Returns each slot's reservation_token (use it with opentable_book — tokens expire quickly, book promptly). Slots may be attributes=['default'|'bar'|'highTop'|'outdoor'] and type=Standard|Experience|POP. You can pass a slot's reservation_token + slot_hash straight to opentable_book without a separate opentable_get_restaurant call — book auto-resolves the dining area. (OpenTable's availability response carries only the seating category, not the numeric dining-area id, so that id is resolved at book time from the booking-details page.) If this errors with "operation ... not yet observed on this tab", open any OpenTable restaurant page in your browser once (the graphql bridge needs to see the page's own availability query fire first), then retry.

opentable_book_previewA

Preview an OpenTable booking BEFORE committing. Fetches the /booking/details SSR page and the slot-lock to surface: the cancellation policy (including any credit-card no-show fee), the saved payment card that would be charged/held, and a short-lived booking_token that opentable_book consumes. REQUIRED for CC-required slots — opentable_book refuses to commit without the token. Safe to call for standard slots too (the token skips a redundant re-lock in book). Holds the slot for ~60-90s; preview → book should happen within a minute. For Listing-type restaurants (Le Bernardin, etc.) this tool can't fetch a slot at all — callers should check opentable_get_restaurant.bookable first and surface the restaurant's phone/URL instead. For Experience-mandatory slots (find_slots returned booking_type=experience_mandatory), pass experience_id from the slot's experience_ids to route through the Experience slot-lock.

opentable_modify_previewA

Preview a MODIFICATION to an existing OpenTable reservation. Takes the existing reservation's identity (restaurant_id + confirmation_number + security_token from opentable_list_reservations or the original opentable_book result) plus the NEW slot args (from a fresh opentable_find_slots call) and returns the new cancellation_policy, CC re-hold details, and a modify_token that opentable_modify consumes. Mirrors opentable_book_preview, but the /booking/details URL includes confirmationNumber + securityToken + isModify=true so OpenTable's SSR returns the modify state. dining_area_id is OPTIONAL — omitted, it's auto-resolved from the booking-details page like book_preview does. REQUIRED before opentable_modify — no shortcut path. For Listing-type restaurants the modify can't proceed (no slot picker); check opentable_get_restaurant.bookable first.

opentable_bookA

Book an OpenTable reservation. Requires a fresh slot_hash + reservation_token from opentable_find_slots (tokens expire within minutes — call find_slots just before book). dining_area_id is OPTIONAL: when omitted it's auto-resolved to the default dining area from OpenTable's booking-details page, so find_slots → book works without a separate opentable_get_restaurant call. For CC-required slots (prime-time at busy restaurants), opentable_book refuses without a booking_token from opentable_book_preview — the preview step surfaces the cancellation policy and the saved card that would be held. Auto-fetches the user's profile (name/email/phone) from /user/dining-dashboard. Returns confirmation_number + security_token; save both — they're required to cancel. For Listing-type restaurants there's no slot to lock — callers should check opentable_get_restaurant.bookable first and surface the restaurant's phone/URL instead. Without confirm:true this returns a dry-run and makes NO booking; re-run with confirm:true to commit.

opentable_modifyA

Modify an existing OpenTable reservation in place. Requires the existing reservation's identity (restaurant_id + confirmation_number + security_token) plus a fresh modify_token from opentable_modify_preview — preview is mandatory because the new slot's cancellation policy / CC re-hold can differ from the original. Submits /dapi/booking/make-reservation with isModify: true + the existing confirmation_number + security_token; OpenTable preserves confirmation_number across modifies but may regenerate reservation_id and security_token. dining_area_id is OPTIONAL — the modify_token already carries the area opentable_modify_preview resolved; pass it only to restate it (mismatch is refused). Returns the same shape as opentable_book plus was_modified: true so the agent can phrase the user confirmation accurately. For Listing-type restaurants there's no slot to lock — agents should check opentable_get_restaurant.bookable first. Without confirm:true this returns a dry-run and makes NO change to the reservation; re-run with confirm:true to submit the modification.

opentable_cancelA

Cancel an OpenTable reservation. Requires restaurant_id, confirmation_number, and security_token — all three come from opentable_list_reservations or opentable_book. Without confirm:true this returns a dry-run and takes NO cancellation action; re-run with confirm:true to cancel the reservation.

opentable_get_profileA

Get the authenticated OpenTable user's profile: name, email, phones, loyalty points and tier, home metro, member-since date. Payment and credit-card details are never exposed.

opentable_list_favoritesB

List the user's saved restaurants from OpenTable (Saved Restaurants list). Returns each entry's id, name, cuisine, neighborhood, price band, rating, and OpenTable URL.

opentable_add_favoriteB

Add a restaurant to the user's Saved Restaurants list.

opentable_remove_favoriteB

Remove a restaurant from the user's Saved Restaurants list.

opentable_search_restaurantsA

Search OpenTable for restaurants. Returns matching restaurants with cuisine, neighborhood, price band, rating, description, and URL. Does NOT include bookable slot tokens — use opentable_find_slots for a specific venue to check availability.

opentable_get_restaurantA

Get full details for a single OpenTable restaurant: cuisine, price band, description, address, hours, phone, payment options, features, rating/review count, and availability_token (used internally when booking). Accepts the numeric restaurant_id, a slug, a path, or the full URL from opentable_search_restaurants — passing the search result's "url" verbatim always resolves, including legacy venues served at /{slug} instead of /r/{slug}.

opentable_healthcheckA

Round-trips a small public www.opentable.com URL (/robots.txt) through the fetchproxy bridge and returns diagnostics: the bridge's role (host/peer/null), port, version, the extension link (linked / pair pending / not attached / never answered), the elapsed round-trip time, and a plain-English hint distinguishing 'bridge never came up' from 'extension not connected' from 'real www.opentable.com-side problem'. Read-only, no auth required. Call this when a real tool fails and you want to know which hop broke.

TDQS

A4.2/5.0

Scored across 14 tools

Disambiguation5/5

Each tool targets a distinct resource and action: profile, favorites, restaurant search/details, slots, previews, booking actions, and health checks. The preview/book and modify_preview/modify pairs are clearly separated by descriptions and token flow, so an agent should not confuse them.

Naming Consistency4/5

The tool names are almost uniformly `opentable_verb_noun` and easy to predict, with clear patterns like add/remove/list for favorites and book/modify/cancel for reservations. The minor exception is `opentable_healthcheck`, which is a noun rather than a verb-noun action, and `book`, `modify`, and `cancel` omit explicit objects.

Tool Count5/5

Fourteen tools is well within a reasonable scope and each tool earns its place in the OpenTable domain. The count covers search, restaurant details, favorites, availability, booking, modification, cancellation, and diagnostics without feeling bloated.

Completeness5/5

The reservation lifecycle is fully covered: list, preview, book, modify, and cancel, with previews handling required tokens and edge cases. Favorites have list/add/remove, restaurants have search/detail, and profile retrieval plus healthcheck round out the surface with no obvious dead ends.
