Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
The annotations already declare read-only and non-destructive behavior. The description adds value by enumerating the response fields (description, signature dishes, address, hours, phone, happy hour, reservation platform, awards, website, Instagram) and indicating a comprehensive retrieval. It does not cover error cases but that is acceptable given the simple read-only nature.
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, well-structured sentence that front-loads the action and resource. The list of returned fields is informative without being verbose. Every phrase contributes to understanding the tool's purpose and output.
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 the tool's simplicity (one parameter), the existing annotations, and the presence of an output schema, the description provides sufficient context for an agent to select and invoke it correctly. It clearly states the input source and the nature of the returned data.
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?
The schema already provides a thorough description of the `id` parameter, including its source (from search) and an example format. The description reiterates this source but adds no new semantic detail. Since schema coverage is 100%, a baseline score of 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 uses a specific verb ('Get') and resource ('full Dim Hour record'), and clearly states the input source (id from search). It lists the contained fields, making the purpose unambiguous. However, it does not explicitly differentiate itself from the sibling tool 'get_venue', so it misses the top score.
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 a clear workflow: first call `search` to obtain an id, then use this tool to fetch the full record. This provides useful context for when to use it. It does not explicitly mention alternatives or when not to use it, so it stops short of giving full exclusions.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
Add one secure layer between your agents and this server.
fetch and get_venue both describe retrieving the full record for a venue, differing only in an extra long-form story for Iconic 50 venues, making their boundaries unclear. Similarly, search and search_venues both search the same catalog with overlapping descriptions, leaving an agent unsure which to call.
The list_* tools are consistently verb_noun, but search and search_venues repeat the same action with different names, and fetch breaks the otherwise intuitive get_* pattern. The naming is readable but not systematic.
Seven tools is a reasonable count for a venue-discovery server, but redundancy between fetch/get_venue and search/search_venues inflates the set and makes it feel less tight than the domain requires.
The surface covers searching, retrieving details, browsing curated lists, and listing new venues across cities, so core discovery workflows are supported. Minor gaps exist around filtering/sharing list results, but agents can generally complete end-to-end tasks.
