eventbrite_get_venue

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It only states 'Get details', which implies a read operation, but does not specify if it requires authentication, what happens if the venue_id is invalid, or the type of data returned. This is insufficient for an agent to understand the tool's behavior.

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 sentence with no unnecessary words. It is front-loaded with the verb 'Get' and the resource. However, it sacrifices completeness for brevity, leaving important details unstated. It earns a 4 for conciseness but is on the edge of being too terse.

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?

Given no output schema and no parameter descriptions, the description is incomplete. It does not explain what 'details' entails (e.g., address, capacity, etc.), nor does it cover error handling or prerequisites. A more comprehensive description would improve the agent's ability to use 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%, so the description must add meaning. The description does not explain the purpose of venue_id or api_key beyond their names. For example, it does not clarify that venue_id is the Eventbrite venue ID or that api_key is optional. The agent relies solely on parameter names, which may be ambiguous.

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 gets details for an Eventbrite venue, using the verb 'Get' and the resource 'venue'. It is not a tautology as it adds the word 'details'. However, it does not differentiate from sibling tools like eventbrite_get_event or eventbrite_get_attendees, which are similar in structure but for different resources.

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?

No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives. The description does not mention scenarios where this tool is appropriate or not, nor does it reference siblings such as eventbrite_search_events or eventbrite_get_event. The agent is given no context for selection.

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