Server Quality Checklist
Latest release: v2.1.0
- Disambiguation5/5
Each tool targets a specific Google service and action (e.g., create, read, update, search, export), with clear names that distinguish between resources like documents, spreadsheets, slides, Gmail, Calendar, and Drive. There is no ambiguity between tools.
Naming Consistency5/5All tools use consistent snake_case naming with a verb-first pattern (e.g., create_document, list_calendar_events, get_spreadsheet_info). The naming convention is uniform across the entire set, making it predictable for an agent.
Tool Count5/5With 30 tools covering multiple Google services (Docs, Sheets, Slides, Gmail, Calendar, Drive, account info), the count is appropriate for a comprehensive Google Workspace integration. Each tool serves a distinct purpose without redundancy.
Completeness3/5The tool set covers core create, read, search, and export operations for most resources but lacks update and delete for documents, presentations, and calendar events. This is a notable gap for full CRUD workflows, though the set is still functional for many use cases.
Average 3.1/5 across 30 of 30 tools scored. Lowest: 1.8/5.

How is the quality score calculated?
The overall quality score combines two components: Tool Definition Quality (70%) and Server Coherence (30%).
Tool Definition Quality measures how well each tool describes itself to AI agents. Every tool is scored 1–5 across six dimensions: Purpose Clarity (25%), Usage Guidelines (20%), Behavioral Transparency (20%), Parameter Semantics (15%), Conciseness & Structure (10%), and Contextual Completeness (10%). The server-level definition quality score is calculated as 60% mean TDQS + 40% minimum TDQS, so a single poorly described tool pulls the score down.
Server Coherence evaluates how well the tools work together as a set, scoring four dimensions equally: Disambiguation (can agents tell tools apart?), Naming Consistency, Tool Count Appropriateness, and Completeness (are there gaps in the tool surface?).
Tiers are derived from the overall score: A (≥3.5), B (≥3.0), C (≥2.0), D (≥1.0), F (<1.0). B and above is considered passing.
Tool Scores
- Behavior1/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description must disclose behavioral traits. It only states 'Search for files', omitting details like return format, pagination, order, required permissions, rate limiting, or side effects.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness2/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is extremely short (one sentence) but lacks essential information. Conciseness is achieved at the cost of completeness, resulting in under-specification.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness1/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given only one parameter and no output schema, the description should provide rich context. It fails to explain the search scope, input format, or output behavior, leaving an AI agent with minimal guidance.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters1/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema has a single 'query' parameter with no description (0% coverage). The description does not explain what the query should contain (e.g., file name, full-text, Google Drive search syntax).
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose3/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description states the tool searches for files in Google Drive, which is a clear verb+resource. However, it does not specify the scope (e.g., all files, specific types) or distinguish from sibling tools like search_documents, search_presentations, which are more targeted.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. Sibling tools exist for searching specific file types (documents, spreadsheets, presentations), but no explicit comparison or usage context is provided.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior1/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description must convey behavioral traits. It only mentions a timezone, but does not disclose that this is a read-only operation, the effect of days_back (e.g., how far to look back), or that max_results caps the returned events. Critical safety and behavior information is missing.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is very brief (two sentences), which is concise but at the expense of necessary information. It is front-loaded with the core action, but the timezone statement could be better integrated or omitted if default.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given no output schema and only two parameters, the description should cover basic behavior: what events are listed (primary calendar?), how days_back interacts with current time, and the effect of max_results. The timezone alone is insufficient for complete understanding.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters1/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 0%, meaning parameters have no descriptions in the schema. The tool description adds no information about the parameters 'max_results' or 'days_back', leaving the agent to infer their meaning from names and defaults alone.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose3/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description states 'List events' which is a verb+resource, but lacks specificity about calendar context. It is clear but not detailed enough to distinguish from hypothetical other event-listing tools. Given sibling tools include only one calendar-related list, it suffices minimally.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, no mention of default calendar or time range behavior. The description does not help with selection criteria.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations exist, so the description must carry the full behavioral burden. It discloses that values must be a JSON 2D array and gives a range example, but does not explain if the operation is idempotent, if it requires authentication, what happens on error, or what the output is (no output schema). The mutation nature is implied but not thoroughly disclosed.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness3/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is very short (two sentences), which is concise but lacks structure. It front-loads the core purpose, but could be organized with clearer sections or bullet points for readability. Every sentence earns its place, but more could be said without becoming verbose.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the complexity of three required parameters, no output schema, and no annotations, the description is incomplete. It does not explain return values, error handling, or the precise effect on the spreadsheet (e.g., appends to the last row). It provides basic intent but not enough for an agent to use it correctly without risk.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
With 0% schema description coverage, the description must add meaning. It explains 'values' as a JSON 2D array and gives a hint about 'range' (e.g., 'Sheet1!A1'), but does not clarify 'spreadsheet_id' at all. The added value is partial and insufficient for full parameter understanding.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states 'Append rows to a spreadsheet', which is a specific verb+resource. It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like 'batch_update_spreadsheet' or 'update_spreadsheet' by indicating addition rather than modification. However, the mention of 'Range' could be slightly confusing as it might imply starting cell rather than the typical append-after-last-row behavior.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. There is no mention of prerequisites, limitations, or when-not-to-use. The implied usage is for adding new rows, but without contrasting with siblings like 'batch_update_spreadsheet' (which can also append), the guidance is minimal.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description carries the full burden. It provides some behavioral info (0-based index, points as units) but omits crucial details like whether text is appended, position behavior, or authentication needs.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Two sentences, front-loaded with the action. No fluff, but could add more value without sacrificing conciseness.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given 7 parameters, no output schema, and no annotations, the description is incomplete. It lacks return value info, error scenarios, and details on how to position text boxes correctly.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 0%. The description adds meaning for slide_index (0-based) and coordinates (points), but does not explain presentation_id, text, width, height, or the effect of defaults. Insufficient for 7 parameters.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states 'Add a text box to a slide', which is a specific verb+resource. It adds coordinate and indexing details but does not differentiate from sibling tools like 'add_slide' or 'delete_slide', though those are distinct actions.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool or when to avoid it. No mention of alternatives or prerequisites. The description only states what it does, not when it's appropriate.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided, and the description only states the action without disclosing behavioral traits such as required permissions, whether the operation is reversible, rate limits, or error handling. Minimal disclosure for a mutation tool.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single sentence, which is concise and front-loaded. However, it is slightly under-specified but still earns a high score for being efficient.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool has no output schema and no annotations, the description should provide more context about return values, error conditions, or prerequisites. The current description is too minimal to be fully complete.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters1/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 0% meaning the schema provides no descriptions for parameters. The description adds no meaning to the parameters beyond their existence; it does not explain what document_id or text values are valid or how they should be formatted.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description clearly states the specific action (append text) and resource (Google Docs document), and it distinguishes from siblings like add_text_to_slide and append_to_spreadsheet by specifying the target resource and location.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like add_text_to_slide or when not to use it. The description implies usage but does not provide explicit context or exclusions.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. It fails to disclose side effects (e.g., creation in default drive), error handling, or required permissions. Very minimal behavioral info.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Single sentence, zero waste. Efficiently communicates the core action.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given simple schema and no output schema or annotations, description is too minimal. Does not specify return value, location, or any constraints, leaving the agent underinformed.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema has one parameter 'title' with no description (0% coverage). Description adds no meaning beyond the parameter name, leaving the agent to infer its purpose.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description states 'Create a new Google Slides presentation', which is a specific verb+resource. However, it does not differentiate from sibling tools like create_document or create_spreadsheet, which share similar wording and purpose.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool vs alternatives such as create_document or create_spreadsheet. Lacks context on prerequisites or typical use cases.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description must fully convey behavioral traits. It only states 'Create a new Google Sheets spreadsheet' without disclosing side effects (e.g., where the spreadsheet is stored, permissions required, rate limits, or return behavior). This minimal information provides insufficient transparency for an agent to assess operational impact.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single, concise sentence that directly states the tool's primary function. It avoids unnecessary words and is front-loaded with the key action and resource. While it could be expanded slightly, it remains efficient given the tool's simplicity.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool has 2 parameters (one required) and no output schema or annotations, the description should at least explain parameter behavior and return value. It only says 'Create a new Google Sheets spreadsheet', omitting what the spreadsheet is named with, default sheet name behavior, and any output confirmation. This lack of completeness leaves significant gaps for correct invocation.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters1/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 0%, so the description must compensate by explaining the parameters. However, the description does not mention the 'title' or 'sheet_name' parameters at all, providing no additional meaning beyond the schema field names. The agent lacks guidance on how to set these values correctly.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the verb 'Create' and the resource 'a new Google Sheets spreadsheet', which directly distinguishes it from sibling tools like 'update_spreadsheet', 'read_spreadsheet', and 'append_to_spreadsheet'. The resource type is specific to Google Sheets, avoiding ambiguity.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does 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 such as 'create_document', 'update_spreadsheet', or 'batch_update_spreadsheet'. The description does not mention prerequisites, context, or exclusion criteria, leaving the agent to infer usage from the name alone.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
The description discloses the required date-time format and timezone ('VN Time'), which is a behavioral detail. However, without annotations, it fails to mention other behaviors like event creation limits, recurrence, or error handling.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is very concise (two sentences) and front-loaded with the purpose. However, it could be more informative without expanding much.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given no output schema and low schema description coverage, the description is incomplete. It does not specify return values, error scenarios, or prerequisites like authentication, leaving the agent with gaps.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
With 0% schema parameter coverage, the description must compensate. It only hints at the time format for start_time and end_time but does not explain summary, description, or that description is optional. Lacks sufficient meaning for an agent.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the verb 'Create' and resource 'calendar event', indicating the tool's purpose. However, it does not differentiate from sibling tools like list_calendar_events or provide context on which calendar is used.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives (e.g., list_calendar_events for reading). The description lacks any usage context or prerequisites.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It does not mention side effects (e.g., where the document is saved), required permissions, error handling, or quotas. The agent is left unaware of important behavioral traits beyond the basic creation action.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single, front-loaded sentence of 9 words—efficient and to the point. However, it omits important information like return value or usage context, making it slightly too brief for full clarity.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given no output schema and no annotations, the description lacks completeness: it does not specify the return value (e.g., document ID or URL), error cases, or operational behavior like default creation location. For a simple creation tool, the description is minimal but misses elements essential for effective agent use.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does 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. It clarifies that body_text is optional and its role as initial content, but the title parameter is only described by its name. The description partially compensates but does not fully explain the parameters' expected values or constraints.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly identifies the tool's action ('Create a new Google Docs document') and specifies 'with optional initial text,' distinguishing it from sibling tools like create_spreadsheet or create_presentation. However, it does not explicitly differentiate from append_to_document, which is a related but distinct operation.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as append_to_document or create_presentation. There are no usage conditions, prerequisites, or explicit when/not-to-use instructions.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are present, so the description must fully disclose behavior. It only states that it lists folders, but does not mention whether the listing is recursive, if trashed items are included, required permissions, or any side effects. This is insufficient for a mutation-free list operation with no annotations.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is extremely concise with two sentences, no wasted words, and the core action is front-loaded. It earns its space.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a list tool with one parameter and no output schema, the description is incomplete. It does not explain the output format, pagination, recursion, or filtering. Given the many sibling tools, more context on when this tool is appropriate (e.g., flat vs recursive) would improve completeness.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The schema has one parameter parent_id with default 'root' and no description. The description adds context by noting that 'root' is for the main folder, but does not explain other possible values or the effect of the parameter. Schema description coverage is 0%, so the description adds some value but is minimal.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states it lists all folders in Google Drive, which is a specific verb+resource. It mentions parent_id with 'root' for main folder, providing context. However, it does not explicitly differentiate from sibling tools like search_drive or get_document, but the action is distinct enough.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description gives a hint about parent_id default but does not specify when to use this tool versus alternatives like search_drive. No when-not or explicit guidance for usage scenarios is provided.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior3/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
The description discloses a notable behavioral trait: it manually constructs MIME to keep Unicode subjects readable, deviating from RFC-compliant encoding. However, it omits other important behaviors such as authentication needs, error handling, and whether it supports HTML bodies or attachments. Without annotations, the description carries full burden but is incomplete.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is short (two sentences) and front-loaded with the core purpose. The second sentence is a technical note that, while relevant to behavior, could be more concise or separated into a behavioral section. No fluff, but the note adds complexity.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given no output schema, no annotations, and minimal parameter info, the description is incomplete. It lacks details on success/error outcomes, prerequisites (e.g., authenticated Gmail), and the fact that 'to' is a single string. The behavioral note is valuable but does not compensate for missing context.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
With 0% schema description coverage, the description must explain parameters. It only indirectly mentions 'subject' in the note about Unicode subjects, but does not describe 'to' or 'body' at all. 'Simple email' is vague and does not clarify parameter types or constraints.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose4/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states 'Send a simple email via Gmail', which specifies the verb (send), resource (simple email), and service (Gmail). It distinguishes itself from sibling tools by being the only email-sending tool.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, nor does it mention limitations such as no attachments, single recipient only, or required authentication. The note about MIME construction is about internal behavior, not usage context.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided. Description only states action but does not disclose edge cases (e.g., duplicate sheet name), required permissions, or side effects.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Single sentence with no wasted words. Front-loaded with action and resource.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
No output schema; description lacks return value, error behavior, and behavior on success/failure. Incomplete for an AI agent to use effectively.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 0%. Description does not elaborate on parameter formats, restrictions, or how they are used. Parameter names are self-explanatory but no added value.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description clearly states action (add), resource (new sheet/tab), and context (to existing spreadsheet). Distinguishes from siblings like create_spreadsheet.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use, when not to use, or alternatives. Missing prerequisites like spreadsheet existence or sheet name uniqueness.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations exist, so the description must carry the full burden. It states 'clear all values' implying mutation, but does not disclose destructive nature, permission requirements, or impact on formulas/formatting.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Two sentences with no wasted words. Very concise, but could add more value without becoming verbose.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple tool with 2 parameters and no output schema, the description covers basic purpose and range format. However, it lacks usage guidance and behavioral details, making it minimally adequate.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters2/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 0%. The description adds a range format example ('Sheet1!A1:D10') but does not explain the spreadsheet_id parameter beyond its name, leaving half the parameters undocumented.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states 'Clear all values in a range' with a specific verb and resource. It distinguishes from sibling tools like read_spreadsheet or append_to_spreadsheet by focusing on clearing values.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does 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. There is no mention of prerequisites, limitations, or when not to use it.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description must disclose behavioral traits but only states the basic action. It does not mention what happens if the label already exists, required permissions, authentication needs, side effects, or the return value. This is insufficient for safe invocation.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single sentence, highly concise and front-loaded. It wastes no words and states the core purpose. However, it could be slightly expanded with essential details without losing conciseness, preventing a perfect score.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness2/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a tool with no output schema and no annotations, the description should provide context on success responses, error conditions, and lifecycle. It only states the action, leaving the agent uninformed about what the tool returns or how to handle failures.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters3/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 0% (no parameter descriptions), so the description must compensate. It implies that the 'name' parameter is the label's name, which provides minimal semantics. However, it does not specify format requirements, uniqueness, or character restrictions, so it only partially compensates.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the specific action ('create') and resource ('label in Gmail'), distinctly separating it from sibling tools like 'list_gmail_labels' which reads labels rather than creating them.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does 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, nor any preconditions or exclusions. The description does not mention that 'list_gmail_labels' could be used to check for existing labels before creating, or that duplicate names might cause errors.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior2/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. It does not disclose side effects like shifting of subsequent slide indices, error behavior for invalid index, or whether the operation is reversible.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness4/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
One clear, efficient sentence with no wasted words. However, it could be slightly expanded with minimal additional context without losing conciseness.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple update tool with no output schema and 0% schema coverage, the description explains parameter formats but lacks details on behavior (e.g., partial updates, return value) and does not discuss spreadsheet_id. Adequate but not comprehensive.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 0%, but description adds meaning for `values` (JSON 2D array example) and `range` (example 'Sheet1!A1'). This compensates for empty schema descriptions. However, `spreadsheet_id` is not elaborated beyond its name.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description clearly states 'Update cells in a spreadsheet' with a specific verb and resource. It distinguishes from siblings like read_spreadsheet, clear_spreadsheet_range, batch_update_spreadsheet, which have different scopes.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool vs alternatives such as batch_update_spreadsheet or append_to_spreadsheet. No exclusions or contextual recommendations provided.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior4/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, the description appropriately conveys that this is a read-only operation (listing). However, it does not mention return format, pagination behavior, or authentication requirements. The simplicity of the tool mitigates the need for extensive disclosure, but some detail on output would improve transparency.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
A single, clear sentence with no extraneous words. It is optimally concise and front-loaded for quick understanding.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness3/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's simplicity (no parameters, no output schema, no annotations), the description is functional but lacks details about the structure of returned data (e.g., label IDs, names, types). An agent would benefit from knowing what fields are included in the output, especially since no output schema is provided.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Input schema has no parameters, so the description has no burden to explain parameter semantics. Schema coverage is trivially 100%. Baseline for 0 parameters is 4, and the description adds no contradicting information.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description clearly states the verb 'List' and resource 'all user labels in Gmail'. It succinctly defines the tool's purpose and naturally distinguishes from siblings like 'create_gmail_label' which creates rather than lists.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines2/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No usage guidance is provided. Does not mention when to use this tool versus alternatives, such as before creating a label to check existing ones, nor any conditions or prerequisites.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
- Behavior4/5
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided, so the description is the sole behavioral disclosure. It states the tool is read-only and returns the email address. It does not mention authentication requirements or potential errors, but for a simple info retrieval, this is largely sufficient.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Conciseness5/5Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single, concise sentence that immediately conveys the tool's purpose. It is front-loaded and contains no unnecessary words or redundancy.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Completeness4/5Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool has no parameters and no output schema, the description adequately explains the function. It could explicitly mention the return type (a string), but the phrase 'Get the email address' strongly implies the result. The tool is simple enough that this level of detail is sufficient.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Parameters4/5Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
No parameters exist in the schema, and the description adds no parameter details. With zero parameters, the baseline score is 4, and the description does not need to elaborate further.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Purpose5/5Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Clearly states the tool retrieves the email address of the currently authenticated Google account. The verb 'Get' specifies the action, and 'email address' defines the resource. This distinguishes it from sibling tools that operate on documents, spreadsheets, and calendar events.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Usage Guidelines3/5Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. However, since it has no parameters and is focused solely on account info, its usage context is implied. A score of 3 reflects the lack of explicit when/when-not instructions.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
