Add a beer to your wishlist

untappd_wishlist_add
Idempotent

Add a beer to your Untappd wishlist by entering its beer ID (bid), with a confirmation step to prevent accidental additions.

Instructions

Add a beer to YOUR Untappd wishlist by its bid. Writes to your account. 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
bidYesUntappd beer id (bid) — from untappd_search_beer
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?

Beyond the annotations, the description clearly discloses the write behavior, the confirmation-first flow, and the two-step fallback with a preview and confirmToken. It also references MCP_CONFIRM_MODE, giving the agent actionable detail about when the actual write occurs.

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 tightly packed sentences: the primary action, the write side-effect, and the confirmation protocol. No filler or repetition; the most important information is front-loaded.

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

Completeness4/5

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

The description covers the essential workflow, including the fallback token mechanism and confirmation requirement. Since there is no output schema, a small gap remains in describing what the final success response looks like, but the tool's behavior is otherwise sufficiently specified.

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

Parameters3/5

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

Schema description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents both bid and confirmToken well. The description adds little param-specific meaning beyond 'by its bid' and the confirmToken fallback behavior, which the schema mostly covers.

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?

The verb 'Add' is specific, and the target resource is clearly 'YOUR Untappd wishlist', with the key input ('by its bid') included. It is readily distinguishable from siblings like untappd_wishlist_remove and untappd_user_wishlist.

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 clear context: this writes to the user's own wishlist and requires confirmation before acting. It does not explicitly name alternatives or exclusion cases, but the 'YOUR' scoping and the confirmation requirement effectively guide selection.

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