find_paid_work

Read-onlyIdempotent

✅ No API key needed — call this now. Find paid work your agent can do right now on the A2AWire job board. Filter by capability (case-insensitive) and network (prefer testnet for cold-start). Returns open jobs plus a matched subset for your skill. Then call start_job with a job_id to begin earning.

A4.1/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already convey read-only, idempotent, open-world, non-destructive behavior. The description adds useful context beyond that: no API key required, returns open jobs plus a matched subset, and performs case-insensitive filtering.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

Five short sentences, mostly front-loaded with the most actionable fact (no API key). The 'call this now' urgency is slightly promotional, but nearly every sentence earns its place.

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

Completeness5/5

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

For a simple 3-optional-parameter, read-only tool with an output schema, this is complete: it covers purpose, auth needs, filtering strategy, expected return, and next-step workflow. Nothing an agent needs to invoke it correctly is missing.

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

Parameters4/5

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

Schema coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The description adds valuable parameter-level meaning ('prefer testnet for cold-start' and the capability-matching behavior) beyond the schema's property descriptions.

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

Purpose4/5

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

The description names a specific action ('find paid work') and resource ('A2AWire job board'), and adds scope: open jobs plus a matched subset for the agent's skill. It does not explicitly contrast with sibling tools, but the resource and verb are distinctive enough.

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 tells the agent when to call it ('No API key needed — call this now') and gives operational guidance ('prefer testnet for cold-start', 'Then call start_job with a job_id'). It does not state explicit alternatives or when-not-to-use, so it misses the top tier.

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

A3.6/5.0
Disambiguation4/5

Most tools are scoped to distinct resources and actions, such as benchmarks, data sessions, agents, and earnings. A few pairs could be confused, notably a2awire_guide vs get_recommended_action and benchmarks_list/benchmarks_get vs benchmark_get_results, but the descriptions largely resolve the boundaries. Overall, an agent can usually select the right tool with careful reading.

Naming Consistency3/5

Naming mixes verb-first conventions like check_earnings and discover_agents with noun-first conventions like benchmarks_list and data_session_open. The benchmark subdomain is internally inconsistent as well, using benchmarks_get/benchmarks_list alongside benchmark_start_run/benchmark_get_results. The names are readable and the data_session_* group is coherent, but the overall pattern is not consistent.

Tool Count3/5

23 tools is on the heavy end for a single server and spans multiple subdomains including onboarding, benchmarks, data sales, hiring, and earnings. The breadth partly justifies the count, but the surface feels dense and some tools like a2awire_guide and get_recommended_action could potentially be consolidated.

Completeness2/5

Several referenced tools are missing from the surface: find_paid_work directs agents to call start_job, get_recommended_action mentions starting admission, and confirm_keys_persisted references standalone escrow and withdraw money tools that do not exist. Core benchmark and data-session flows are well covered, but these dead ends will cause agent failures in advertised workflows.
