Read-onlyIdempotent

Screen every recorded pair at once: funding_band and oi_band against each pair's own recorded days (record high, top 5%, top 25%, typical, bottom 25%, bottom 5%, record low), a minimum whale-flow multiple, and unusual-only.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
limitNoRows to return (usually up to 50; more is clamped and said).
cursorNoNext page: the cursor from the previous answer.
detailNobrief (default): the answer, key numbers and top rows. full: every row, paged with cursor.
compactNotrue: one line per coin.
oi_bandNoOpen interest band(s).
funding_bandNoFunding band(s), e.g. "top 5%".
unusual_onlyNoOnly coins with unusual whale activity now.
whale_mult_minNoMinimum whale flow as a multiple of the coin's own average.

Output Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
as_ofNoData time, ISO.
caveatNoA real limit, when non-null.
cursorNoNext page (detail full).
delayedNoSet when not live.
summaryNoThe answer in one sentence.
as_of_msNoData time, Unix ms.
availableNoFalse: no data; note says why.
truncatedNoRows held back; see trimmed.
next_toolsNoFollow-up calls {tool,args,why}.
access_noteNoWhat this connection could not return.

TDQS

A4.6/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already mark this as read-only and idempotent.te, lowering the bar. The description adds meaningful behavioral context by stating that bands are evaluated 'against each pair's own recorded days' and by listing the exact band thresholds. This helps the agent understand that results are relative per pair, not global.

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

Conciseness5/5

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

The description is a single, front-loaded sentence: 'Screen every recorded pair at once' followed by a compact list of criteria. No filler or redundant phrases. The band list is dense but necessary, and each element 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?

With an output schema present, the description doesn't need to cover return shapes. It fully explains the screening logic, the key parameter semantics, and the tool's scope. Pagination and output-detail parameters are already documented in the schema, so an agent has everything needed to call this tool correctly.

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

Parameters5/5

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

Although schema coverage is 100%, the description adds crucial meaning beyond the schema: it explains that funding_band and oi_band are interpreted relative to each pair's own recorded days, and it clearly maps 'minimum whale-flow multiple' to whale_mult_min and 'unusual-only' to unusual_only. This resolves ambiguity that the bare schema leaves.

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 description opens with a specific verb and resource: 'Screen every recorded pair at once.' It then enumerates the screening criteria (funding_band, oi_band, whale-flow multiple, unusual-only), making it unmistakable what the tool does. This distinguishes it clearly from siblings like coin_brief or watchlist_brief, which target narrower scopes.

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?

The phrase 'every recorded pair at once' makes the tool's use case explicit: whole-market screening rather than single-coin or watchlist inspection. It doesn't name alternative tools or list exclusion conditions, but the context is clear enough for an agent to decide when to invoke it.

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