stablecoin_flows

Read-onlyIdempotent

Get current stablecoin supply & 24h net flows — USDT, USDC, DAI from DefiLlama (use stablecoin_history for daily time-series) — Current stablecoin circulating supply plus 24h net change (positive = expansion/inflow, negative = contraction/outflow) for USDT, USDC, DAI, and other major stablecoins, sourced from DefiLlama stablecoins.llama.fi. Use this endpoint for the current snapshot; use /api/public/stablecoin-history for daily time-series data (up to 180 days); use /api/public/stablecoin-monthly for long-term monthly trends. Cached ~30min.

A4.6/5.0

Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already cover readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, and destructiveHint, so the description only needs to add non-obvious context. It adds the 24h net-change sign semantics (positive = expansion/inflow, negative = contraction/outflow), the DefiLlama source, and a ~30-minute cache indicator, all valuable beyond the annotations.

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?

The description is front-loaded with the core action and data scope, then routes to sibling tools and ends with cache freshness. There is minor redundancy in mentioning USDT/USDC/DAI twice and DefiLlama twice, but the structure remains efficient and scannable.

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?

Given that the tool has zero parameters, an output schema exists to describe the return shape, and annotations handle the safety profile, the description fully covers what an agent needs: data scope, source, snapshot semantics, sibling routing, and cache behavior. Nothing essential 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?

There are no parameters, so the input schema already covers 100% and there is nothing parameter-specific to document. The baseline of 4 for zero-parameter tools applies; the description still adds useful scope by naming the stablecoin set included.

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 clearly states a specific verb ('Get'), a concrete resource ('current stablecoin supply & 24h net flows'), and the covered stablecoins (USDT, USDC, DAI). It also names the sibling alternatives, stablecoin_history and stablecoin_monthly, making the current-snapshot purpose unmistakable.

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

Usage Guidelines5/5

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

Explicitly says 'Use this endpoint for the current snapshot' and routes the agent to /api/public/stablecoin-history for daily time-series and stablecoin_monthly for monthly trends. This gives clear when-to-use versus alternative guidance with no ambiguity.

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