Check EU AI Act Implementation Deadlines

euaiact_check_deadlines
Read-onlyIdempotent

Check EU AI Act implementation deadlines with days remaining, next milestone, and optional Digital Omnibus status. Filter by compliance area or view only upcoming deadlines.

Instructions

Returns key implementation milestones and deadlines for the EU AI Act with days remaining, a next_milestone shortcut, and a summary of the Digital Omnibus. The milestone timeline always reflects the operative law. Set include_pending_omnibus: true to also receive the structured Digital Omnibus pack (each item source-status labelled; its status and enacted fields carry the current legislative state). Use only_upcoming: true to drop past milestones.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
areaNoOptional filter by compliance area (e.g. 'GPAI', 'high-risk', 'prohibited')
only_upcomingNoIf true, return only milestones that have not yet come into effect.
include_pending_omnibusNoIf true, also return the structured Digital Omnibus pack with per-item source-status labels. OFF by default: the milestone timeline always reflects the operative law only. Check the pack's `status` and `enacted` fields for its current legislative state; non-enacted content must not be treated as current law.

TDQS

A4.3/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnly=true, idempotent=true, and openWorld=false, giving the agent safety confidence. The description goes further by disclosing versioning behavior ('always reflects the operative law'), the source-status labeling of the omnibus pack, and the crucial legal caution that 'non-enacted content must not be treated as current law.' This is exactly the kind of consequential behavior (legislative state accuracy) an agent needs disclosed.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

Two sentences, zero filler, front-loaded with the core purpose. The second sentence is dense, but the density reflects the legal nuance being communicated. Code-formatted parameters and a well-placed 'important' caution after the parameter description make it scannable. The density is justified by the high-stakes legal context.

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?

For a compliance-relevant legal tool, the description covers versioning ('operative law'), pending-legislation safety, and parameter default behavior, even addressing how an output schema exists. Minor gaps like timezone for 'days remaining' or error behavior are not material enough to detract from what is otherwise a complete picture.

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

Parameters4/5

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

With 100% schema coverage, baseline is 3. The description adds value by clarifying the default behavior ('OFF by default: the milestone timeline always reflects the operative law only') and connecting the `include_pending_omnibus` output to its `status` and `enacted` fields, which helps the agent reason about conditional response validation.

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 opens with 'Returns key implementation milestones and deadlines for the EU AI Act with days remaining, a `next_milestone` shortcut, and a summary of the Digital Omnibus' — a specific verb+resource+scope statement that clearly distinguishes it from siblings like euaiact_get_obligations or euaiact_calculate_penalty. The mention of the `next_milestone` shortcut and the Digital Omnibus summary adds distinctive detail beyond a generic 'check deadlines' description.

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?

The description implies when to use the tool — for operative-law-accurate milestone lookups — but never explicitly names alternatives or states when NOT to use it. The phrase 'The milestone timeline always reflects the operative law' gives clear context for trust boundaries, but there's no cross-reference to siblings like 'use get_obligations for obligations' or 'use answer_question for interpretive questions.'

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