A user conducted an experiment to test the effectiveness of providing tool schemas to ClaudeAI. The user found that even when full JSON schemas for their code-indexing server were included in the prompt, ClaudeAI used the tool infrequently. When the schemas were drastically reduced in size, the tool usage remained similarly low, suggesting that the presence of schemas in the prompt did not significantly increase the agent's utilization of the tool. The user also noted that the tool was rarely called in sessions where it had already been used, indicating it quickly drifted out of the agent's active working set. AI
IMPACT Suggests that current LLM agents may not effectively leverage detailed tool definitions, impacting the design of agentic systems.
