get_workout_events

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

No annotations are provided, so the description must carry the behavioral disclosure burden. It does reveal that results are paged, filtered by a date, and contain updates/deletes. However, it does not explain pagination mechanics, date format, sorting, or the content of each event, leaving several behavioral aspects undisclosed.

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

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

The description is a single, well-structured sentence that is front-loaded with the key action and resource. It is concise and contains no filler or redundant information.

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

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

With no annotations, no output schema, and zero schema description coverage, the description is insufficiently complete. It does not describe return values, pagination behavior, parameter formats, or the exact nature of workout events, making it inadequate for an agent to fully understand or invoke the tool correctly.

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

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

Schema description coverage is 0% and the description does not explain the parameters (page, since, pageSize). The phrase 'since a given date' hints at the `since` parameter, but no format or semantics are provided, and page/pageSize are entirely undocumented. This leaves the agent without enough information to use parameters correctly.

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

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

The description clearly states the tool retrieves a paged list of workout events (updates or deletes) since a given date, using a specific verb and resource. This distinguishes it from siblings like get_workouts, which likely return workout records rather than change events.

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

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

The description implies usage for retrieving change events rather than full workouts, but it does not explicitly compare with alternatives or state when to choose one over the other. There is clear context but no exclusions or explicit alternative guidance.

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