Analytics Legends — SAP AI & Analytics MCP Server

Public SAP AI & analytics day-rate aggregate

get_day_rate_benchmark

Read-onlyIdempotent

The PUBLIC day-rate aggregate for SAP AI & analytics freelance work: min/max daily rate by country, specialisation and seniority — daily_rate_min / daily_rate_max (plus daily_rate_median, daily_rate_p10, daily_rate_p90 when the source publishes them), every amount in the row's own currency — with source, source date, confidence and the sample the source states. This is the free aggregate published at analyticslegends.ai/api/market-rates.json, and it is SMALL — a few dozen rows at most, every one of them a secondary source (a published market study or a job-board scan), and sample_size is null on most of them. NO COUNT IS WRITTEN HERE ON PURPOSE: _meta.tranche_total_row_count and the rows themselves are the live measure. A frozen pair stood here until 2026-08-27 — '11 rows on 2026-08-09 … sample_size null on 8 of them' — and the second half was WRONG (7 of 11) while the first was still right, which is the whole argument against writing either. NOTHING IS HELD BACK BEHIND IT: there is no paid counterpart to this aggregate. The community-contribution path exists (public.rate_contributions) but publishes nothing yet — v_community_rate_aggregates and v_rate_index are still empty, because a contributed rate only surfaces once a cell holds enough submissions to be reported without identifying anyone. So whatever percentile a source row happens to carry is served here, free, to everyone. The GB row carries a median, p10 and p90, and its own note says its min/max ARE the 25th and 75th percentiles. What is missing from this answer is missing from THIS aggregate; it is not a paid tier. THIS IS NOT THE ONLY RATE THE PLATFORM PUBLISHES, AND ON THE QUESTIONS THIS MARKET ASKS MOST IT IS THE THINNER ONE. The website carries a rate_band per live radar posting for signed-in subscribers — a panel-inferred P25–P75 band per (seniority × product × region) cell, Eursap n=312 plus the Analytics Legends operator panel. This server does not serve it (find_opportunities.rate_band is null on every row, with or without a key). The grid covers EUROPEAN cells only — DACH, FR/Benelux, UK/IE, Southern EU, Eastern EU, Nordics — and there it prices exactly the cells this small aggregate cannot (Senior Datasphere DACH, Senior BDC DACH), where specialisation:"bdc" here returns nothing. When this tool comes back empty for a country × product: in one of those European regions, say the AGGREGATE holds no row and that subscribers read the platform's band on the posting pages; ANYWHERE ELSE (Americas, APAC, Africa, Middle East) say the platform publishes no rate for that cell at any tier — never that subscribers get one. The two are different instruments: this one is a published market study, that one is an editorial benchmark attached to a live posting. Read _meta.available_countries / available_specialisations / available_seniorities — they are computed from the aggregate on every call — before concluding that a rate is unpublished, and quote each row with its own currency, its confidence and its source date.

Input Schema

Name	Required	Description
`country`	No	ISO-3166-1 alpha-2 country code, e.g. DE, FR, CH.
`seniority`	No	e.g. senior, principal.
`specialisation`	No	A specialisation code, matched exactly. The live list is `_meta.available_specialisations` on every call — no list is kept here, because a written one went stale. Codes are NOT evenly spread across countries: read the rows a country filter returns. A code this aggregate does not hold (bdc, joule) returns 0 rows and the available codes; it never widens to a neighbouring band. 0 rows here is an absence in THIS aggregate only — see the tool description for what the website's subscriber band covers and where no rate exists at any tier.

TDQS

A3.7/5.0

Behavior3/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations already declare readOnly, idempotent, openWorld and non-destructive, so safety is covered. The description genuinely adds beyond that: the dataset is small (a few dozen rows), every row is a secondary source, `sample_size` is often null, each amount is in the row's own `currency`, and `_meta.available_*` is recomputed per call. Offset against this, the paragraph about a 'frozen pair' that stood until 2026-08-27 is changelog noise that consumes attention without informing a call.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness2/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Purpose is front-loaded, but the text runs to roughly 500 words for a three-parameter read tool and includes internal meta-commentary (the stale '11 rows on 2026-08-09 … sample_size null on 8 of them' correction, 'NO COUNT IS WRITTEN HERE ON PURPOSE') that does not help an agent invoke the tool. Several sentences repeat the same point about the aggregate not being a paid tier.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

An output schema exists, so return-field explanations are unnecessary, and the description still covers what an agent needs to interpret results: per-row currency, confidence, source date, empty-result meaning, and the coverage boundary against the subscriber band. It is more than complete; the remaining deficiency is editorial discipline, not missing information.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents all three optional parameters, making 3 the baseline. The description reinforces empty-result semantics and warns that codes are unevenly spread across countries, but that guidance is already largely present in the `specialisation` schema description, so it adds little net meaning.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The opening sentence gives a specific verb+resource: a public day-rate aggregate returning min/max daily rate by country, specialisation and seniority, with named fields. It also explicitly distinguishes itself from the sibling/instrument it is not (`find_opportunities.rate_band` on live postings), so an agent can route between them without opening either schema.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

It names the alternatives and the conditions that select them: community aggregates (v_community_rate_aggregates, v_rate_index) publish nothing yet, and the subscriber rate_band exists only on European radar postings. It even prescribes behaviour when results are empty (say the aggregate holds no row in European regions; say no rate exists at any tier elsewhere). The one gap is that the 'use this tool when a user asks about day rates' framing is implied rather than stated.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
