Oura Workouts

oura_list_workouts
Read-onlyIdempotent

List workout summaries from Oura within a date range, with options to paginate, filter by time, and control privacy. Provides structured summaries of exercise sessions for activity tracking.

Instructions

List Oura workout summaries. Requires workout scope.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
afterNoOnly return Oura records after this time. Converted to an Oura start_date.
limitNoMaximum number of records returned by this call, kept from the OLDEST end of the window. Oura v2 serves collections oldest-first, has no sort parameter and no page-size parameter, so limit=1 returns the OLDEST record in the window, never the newest. This domain has no latest-record shortcut resource (only daily readiness has one), so to reach the newest record here, narrow the window with after/before until the response comes back with truncated=false and has_more=false: records are oldest-first, so the LAST one is then the newest that exists in that window. The cap is applied locally after fetching and also stops cursor pagination once it is reached; when it dropped records, truncated is true and has_more is true. If truncated is true, raise limit or set all_pages — do not follow a cursor, because next_token is omitted whenever resuming would skip dropped records.
beforeNoOnly return Oura records before this time. Converted to an Oura end_date.
all_pagesNoWhen true, follow the Oura next_token cursor up to max_pages in this one call. Resume later by passing the returned next_token with the same after/before window.
max_pagesNoMaximum upstream Oura pages to fetch in this call when all_pages is true. A runaway guard, not an Oura page index.
next_tokenNoOpaque Oura v2 cursor from a previous collection response. Pass it back unchanged with the same after/before window to resume. Oura has no integer page index and no page-size parameter; do not invent or increment a page number.
privacy_modeNoOptional per-call privacy override. Defaults to OURA_PRIVACY_MODE or structured. raw returns upstream Oura JSON. summary minimizes sensitive health and profile details.
response_formatNomarkdown
explicit_user_intentNoRequired true when privacy_mode=raw (agent escalation of redaction).

Output Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
countYes
recordsYes
endpointYes
has_moreYesTrue when more records exist beyond this response, either upstream (a resumable next_token) or because the limit cap dropped records (truncated). If truncated is true, raise limit or set all_pages; if next_token is present, pass it back.
truncatedYesTrue when the limit cap dropped records that had already been fetched. Raise limit or set all_pages (or narrow after/before) to see them. next_token is omitted in this case so a resume cannot skip those rows.
next_tokenNoOpaque Oura v2 cursor to resume from. Pass this back as input next_token with the same after/before window. Present only when more records exist upstream AND this call did not locally drop fetched records (truncated is false). When truncated is true, next_token is omitted: raise limit or set all_pages instead of following a cursor, which would skip the dropped records. Never increment a page number.
privacy_modeYes
pages_fetchedYes

A3.6/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already establish readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, and non-destructive behavior, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds the auth requirement (workout scope) and that results are summaries, but it does not disclose ordering or pagination behavior in prose; those appear later in parameter descriptions.

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?

The description is two short sentences with no filler. Every word earns its place: the verb-resource statement and the scoping/auth requirement. It is appropriately front-loaded and concise.

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 tool definition is operationally complete because the schema describes pagination, ordering, privacy, and cursor behaviors, and an output schema exists so return values do not need prose explanation. The main gap is the absence of explicit wanneer-to-use guidance among the many sibling tools, but this does not prevent a knowledgeable agent from selecting it correctly.

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 89% and the individual parameter descriptions are very detailed (oldest-first ordering, cursor semantics, limit truncation, privacy modes). The main description adds no parameter-level meaning, so with high schema coverage the appropriate baseline is 3.

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 description starts with a clear verb and resource: 'List Oura workout summaries.' The resource is specific enough to differentiate it from sibling tools like oura_list_sleep and oura_list_daily_activity, and the additional scope requirement narrows its purpose.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

The only usage guidance is the implicit prerequisite 'Requires workout scope.' There is no statement about when to prefer this over sibling list tools, no exclusion criteria, and no mention of alternatives. The agent must infer use from the name.

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