Agent readability score
Can an LLM agent pick the right tool here — names, descriptions and parameter clarity are assessed.
Agent readability score
Strengths
- Tool names are generally clear and action-oriented (e.g., 'create_webhook', 'verify_otp').
- Descriptions provide contextual usage scenarios (e.g., 'check credits before bulk send').
Weaknesses
- Some parameter definitions are ambiguous (e.g., 'enabled: false' in 'create_webhook' lacks explicit type declaration).
- Overlapping tools ('send_sms' vs 'send_sms_list') may confuse agents about use cases.
- Incomplete descriptions (e.g., 'send_sms' cuts off mid-sentence).
send_sms— Description abruptly cuts off, missing critical context about P2P limitationssend_sms_list— Overlaps with 'send_sms' in P2P messaging use casesetup_sms8— Parameter 'api_key' lacks explicit type declaration in input schema
