CoinRithm Agent Trading

Get OHLCV candles

get_candles
Read-only

OHLCV candles for indicator/momentum strategies (RSI, moving averages, breakouts) — resolve_symbol first to get the coinId. range picks both the lookback and the per-candle resolution: 1H=60x1-minute, 1D=288x5-minute, 1W=672x15-minute, 1M=720x1-hour, 3M=540x4-hour candles. Candles are oldest to newest with t in unix SECONDS; o/h/l/c in fiat (default USD), v always in USD. These are sampled composite-price bars, not venue trade candles. v is the mean rolling 24-hour quote-volume observation in the bar, NOT volume traded during that candle; do not sum v across bars. Paper trading only (virtual mUSD). Fills follow paper_execution_v1 with a disclosed execution cost; see executionModel in quote/trade results.

TDQS

A4.8/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Goes well beyond the readOnly/openWorld annotations by disclosing that these are sampled composite-price bars rather than venue trade candles, that v is a rolling 24-hour quote-volume observation not per-candle traded volume (with an explicit "do not sum v" warning), and that the environment is paper trading only under paper_execution_v1. These are exactly the non-obvious traits an agent would otherwise get wrong.

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?

Dense but front-loaded: purpose first, then the range table, then units/semantics, then the caveats that would cause silent errors. Every sentence carries distinct, load-bearing information and there is no filler.

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 tool with an output schema already defined, the description covers everything the agent needs: interpretation of the returned fields, the volume trap, and the paper-trading execution context. Nothing material is left unstated.

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 schema only hints at the range mapping ("1D = 288 five-minute candles"). The description supplies the full range→lookback/resolution table and clarifies units (t in unix SECONDS, o/h/l/c in fiat, v in USD), which is meaningful added semantics over the raw schema.

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?

States a specific verb+resource ("OHLCV candles") and immediately scopes it to indicator/momentum strategies (RSI, moving averages, breakouts), which distinguishes it from get_market_context and get_crypto_movers. It also names resolve_symbol as the dependency for coinId, so an agent can route correctly without opening another 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?

Gives clear usage context (indicator/momentum strategies) and an explicit prerequisite ("resolve_symbol first to get the coinId"). It does not, however, name alternative data tools or state when NOT to use this, so it stops short of full when/when-not/alternatives guidance.

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