tp_reorder_workouts

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

With no annotations, the description must disclose behavioral traits. It only says 'reorder', indicating a mutation, but doesn't mention reversibility, required permissions, or behavior with invalid IDs. Minimal disclosure for a mutating operation.

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, front-loaded sentence with no unnecessary words. It efficiently communicates the core function.

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?

For a simple tool, the description is incomplete: it doesn't explain how the 'day' is determined, prerequisites, or how this tool relates to sibling workout tools. The ambiguity around 'given day' leaves a gap in understanding.

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 100%, providing descriptions for both athlete and workout_ids. The description adds no significant parameter nuance beyond the ambiguous 'given day', which isn't a parameter. Baseline 3 is appropriate.

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 action (reorder) and resource (workouts) with a scope ('on a given day'). It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like tp_create_workout or tp_delete_workout by specifying a reorder operation.

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 reordering workouts, but gives no explicit guidance on when to use it versus alternatives, nor prerequisites (e.g., all workouts must belong to the same day). The 'given day' context is vague and not represented in the schema.

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