calendar.events.import

Imports an existing event as a private copy into a chosen calendar, limited to default event types. Use it to add an event from another source without modifying the original.

Instructions

Imports an event. This operation is used to add a private copy of an existing event to a calendar. Only events with an eventType of default may be imported. Deprecated behavior: If a non-default event is imported, its type will be changed to default and any event-type-specific properties it may have will be dropped [HTTP POST] — creates or triggers a change; refused under --readonly safety profiles. Returns the API's response resource as JSON — request body is a JSON Event object accepting anyoneCanAddSelf, attachments, attendees, attendeesOmitted, birthdayProperties, colorId, conferenceData, created and 36 more fields; pass it via params or whole via body_file Siblings over the same resource: delete, get, insert, instances, list, move, patch, quickAdd, update, watch.

A3.6/5.0

Behavior4/5

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

With no annotations, the description carries the full burden and does well: it declares the write nature ('HTTP POST — creates or triggers a change'), the readonly-profile refusal, and the destructive side effect that a non-default event's type is rewritten and its type-specific properties dropped. It also states the response is the API resource as JSON. Missing only auth/permission requirements.

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

Conciseness3/5

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

The import semantics and the deprecation warning are correctly front-loaded, but the 'accepting anyoneCanAddSelf, attachments, … and 36 more fields' enumeration and the flat sibling name dump add bulk without decision value.

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?

An output schema exists so return values need no explanation, and the description covers the mutation semantics, the input-type constraint, the deprecation consequence, and how to supply the body. Only the permissions/scope needed for the target calendar is unaddressed.

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 baseline is 3. The description adds the body-routing choice (`params` merged vs whole `body_file`) and notes the Event object's breadth, but both facts are already present in the schema's own descriptions, so marginal added value is small.

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

Purpose4/5

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

The description gives a specific verb and resource ('Imports an event') plus the distinguishing scope: it adds a private copy of an existing event to a calendar. That meaningfully separates it from calendar.events.insert, though the sibling insert is only listed by name, not contrasted explicitly.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

Usage is implied through the private-copy semantics and the restriction to eventType 'default', and the safety-profile refusal note tells the agent it will not run read-only. However, the ten sibling tools are dumped as a bare list with no guidance on when to import versus insert, move, or quickAdd.

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