Tool Schema Design | Agent Skills Atlas

About this skill

Design and validate model-facing tool definitions with clear names, action-oriented descriptions, bounded JSON Schema parameters, explicit side effects, safe defaults, idempotency, errors, and realistic tests. Use when creating function-calling tools, MCP tools, agent actions, structured tool inputs, or when a model selects the wrong tool, invents arguments, or causes unsafe side effects.
