Implementation Reference

  • Handler function for 'add_to_suppression' tool. It makes a POST request to '/api/suppression' endpoint with the emails and reason (default 'MANUAL'), and returns the API response as text.
    case 'add_to_suppression': {
      const result = await apiRequest('/api/suppression', {
        method: 'POST',
        body: JSON.stringify({
          emails: args?.emails,
          reason: args?.reason || 'MANUAL',
        }),
      });
      return {
        content: [{ type: 'text' as const, text: JSON.stringify(result, null, 2) }],
      };
    }
  • Tool schema definition including name, description, and inputSchema with required 'emails' array and optional 'reason' enum.
      name: 'add_to_suppression',
      description: 'Add email addresses to the suppression list',
      inputSchema: {

          emails: {

Behavior2/5

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries full burden for behavioral disclosure. It mentions adding to a suppression list (implying a write/mutation operation) but doesn't address critical aspects like permissions needed, whether the action is reversible, rate limits, or what happens if emails are already suppressed. This leaves significant gaps for an agent.

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 a single, efficient sentence that directly states the tool's function without unnecessary words. It's appropriately sized and front-loaded, making it easy for an agent to parse quickly.

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

Completeness2/5

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

For a mutation tool with no annotations and no output schema, the description is insufficient. It lacks information about behavioral traits (e.g., idempotency, error handling), expected outcomes, or how this tool relates to siblings like 'list_suppression'. The agent would need to guess about many operational aspects.

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 fully documents both parameters (emails array and reason enum). The description doesn't add any parameter-specific context beyond what's in the schema, such as format requirements for emails or implications of different reason values, meeting the baseline for high schema coverage.

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 clearly states the action ('Add') and target resource ('email addresses to the suppression list'), making the purpose immediately understandable. However, it doesn't differentiate from sibling tools like 'list_suppression' or explain what a suppression list is, preventing a perfect score.

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?

No guidance is provided about when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'list_suppression' or 'list_emails', nor about prerequisites such as whether emails must be verified first. The description only states what it does, not when it should be used.

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