Log minimum workout

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

No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. It only states what is logged (walking, sit-to-stand, push-up) but does not disclose behavioral traits like potential side effects, required environment variables, or that the tool creates a workout entry. Hidden requirements like env vars are not mentioned.

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?

Two concise sentences that front-load the purpose. No wasted words.

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?

Adequately describes the core function but lacks important context: it does not mention that environment variables must be set for the default exercise IDs, nor does it describe the return value or success behavior. Given no output schema and 8 parameters with 50% schema coverage, more detail would be beneficial.

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 50%, so baseline is 3. Description adds value by explaining that exercise IDs can be passed as parameters or set via environment variables, which clarifies the purpose of those parameters. Also lists the three default exercises.

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?

Description clearly states the tool logs a default minimum workout consisting of walking, chair sit-to-stand, and wall push-up. It distinguishes from sibling tools like ryot_log_workout (general logging) and ryot_log_walk (just walking).

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?

Implied usage for quickly logging a minimal workout, but no explicit guidance on when to use this versus alternatives like ryot_log_workout or ryot_create_minimum_routine_template. No exclusion criteria or prerequisites mentioned.

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