A2A-capable music control agent for the Cider Apple Music client.
Vesper has 5 tools with minimal parameter documentation and weak descriptions. Four tools (play, pause, next, previous) have empty input schemas and trivial descriptions (10-15 chars), violating the 20-char minimum for description scoring. The 'ask' tool has a single parameter with a description, but lacks output schema documentation. No error handling guidance, no parameter constraints, and no indication of what these tools return. Tool names are verb-based (good), but descriptions are too terse to guide LLM selection. Structured output is enabled, but the actual response structure is not documented anywhere in the visible code.
Handle a natural-language music request.
Skip to the next track or session-selected track.
Pause playback.
Resume playback.
Go to the previous track.
Four tools (play, pause, next, previous) have empty input schemas ({}).
Descriptions for play, pause, next, previous are 10-15 characters. These are too terse to guide LLM selection.
No output schema documented for any tool. LLMs cannot plan downstream calls or extract required fields without knowing what each tool returns.
No error handling guidance. Tools raise CiderValidationError for empty text in 'ask', but no recovery hints or error classification provided to guide LLM retry logic.
