Single tool with a basic but incomplete definition. The tool is explicitly registered with name, description, and schema, but lacks critical details: parameter descriptions are minimal, output schema is undocumented, error handling is absent, and the implementation exposes no guidance for LLM recovery. The description is generic (22 chars, at minimum threshold). The input schema is present but the 'city' parameter description is bare ('City name', 9 chars, below recommended 50-200 char range for LLM clarity). No output schema is documented; LLMs cannot predict return structure. Error handling returns unstructured text rather than structured errors with recovery guidance. No mention of what happens on API failures (timeouts, invalid responses, quota limits). The tool violates several critical patterns: response-shaper (no documented output), recovery-guide (no error guidance), tool-description (param description too brief).
Tool to fetch the weather of a city
Parameter description is too brief ('City name', 9 chars). LLMs need 50 - 200 char descriptions explaining what values are valid, format constraints, and when to use the parameter.
Output schema is not documented. The tool returns JSON.stringify(weatherData) as unstructured text. LLMs cannot predict the response fields (temperature, precipitation, etc.), forcing them to parse free text and risking errors.
No error handling or recovery guidance. If the geocoding API returns 0 results, the code returns a bare text message. If the weather API fails (timeout, 500 error, quota exceeded), the error propagates unstructured. LLMs receive no instruction on what to do next.
Tool description (22 chars) is at the minimum threshold and lacks context. It does not explain when to use the tool, what it returns, or why an LLM should call it.

No input validation or constraint documentation. The 'city' parameter accepts any string; LLMs may pass empty strings, very long strings, or special characters that break the geocoding API.
API calls have no timeout guards. If the Open-Meteo API hangs, the tool blocks indefinitely. No retry logic or circuit breaker.
