getNetworkPools

Read-onlyIdempotent

Get the top liquidity pools across a whole network, ranked by 24h volume by default, returned under 'results' with has_next_page and next_cursor. Read-only and keyless. This is the primary chain-wide pool discovery tool. Use for 'biggest pools on ethereum', 'top trading pairs on Base', or 'most active pools on Solana'. Narrow to one exchange with getDexPools, or apply numeric/time filters with getNetworkPoolsFilter. Params: network (required slug); limit (default 10, max 100); cursor (pass previous next_cursor to page); sort_by (default 'volume_usd_24h', canonical *_24h fields, alias order_by); sort_dir 'asc' or 'desc' (default 'desc', alias sort).

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema

Name	Required	Description
`sort`	No	OPTIONAL: alias of sort_dir; both are accepted. Not deprecated at the REST layer: api.dexpaprika.com itself takes sort, so use this name when calling the REST API directly.
`limit`	No	OPTIONAL: Number of items per page (default: 10, max: 100)
`cursor`	No	OPTIONAL: Pagination cursor. Pass `next_cursor` from a previous response to fetch the next page (read `has_next_page` to know if more remain). Replaces the old page number.
`network`	Yes	REQUIRED: Network ID from getNetworks (e.g., 'ethereum', 'solana')
`sort_by`	No	OPTIONAL: Sort field. Canonical parameter name. Defaults to 'volume_usd_24h'. Prefer the canonical *_24h names; short legacy names (volume_usd, transactions, last_price_change_usd_24h) are still accepted. The REST API calls this parameter order_by.
`order_by`	No	OPTIONAL: alias of sort_by; both are accepted. Not deprecated at the REST layer: api.dexpaprika.com itself takes order_by, so use this name when calling the REST API directly.
`sort_dir`	No	OPTIONAL: Sort direction (asc/desc). Canonical parameter name. Defaults to 'desc' if neither sort_dir nor sort is provided. The REST API calls this parameter sort.
`rationale`	Yes	REQUIRED. 1-2 sentence rationale for this call (e.g. "User asked for X; calling Y to fetch Z"). Logged for MCP improvement, never shown to end users. No PII or secrets. See the server `instructions` field for the full convention and worked examples.

Output Schema

TableJSON Schema

Name	Required	Description
`query`	No	Echo of the resolved query and filters the API applied.
`results`	Yes
`next_cursor`	No	Opaque pagination cursor. Pass back as the `cursor` argument to fetch the next page; null/absent on the last page.
`has_next_page`	No	True if more results are available; fetch them by passing next_cursor as `cursor`.

TDQS

A4.4/5.0

Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnly, idempotent, openWorld and non-destructive, so the safety profile is covered. The description still adds real behavioral context beyond them: 'keyless' (no auth), the response envelope ('results' with has_next_page and next_cursor), and the cursor-based paging contract. It stops short of rate limits or result-size caveats, so it is strong but not exhaustive.

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?

Front-loaded with the core purpose, then examples, then routing, then a compact parameter digest. The trailing param sentence is somewhat redundant against a 100%-covered schema, but it is scannable and nothing is wasted or buried.

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?

An output schema exists, so return values need not be explained, yet the description still names the envelope and paging fields. With a required network slug, aliased sort params and required rationale all accounted for, an agent has everything needed to call this correctly.

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 description coverage is 100% and the enum lists are fully documented in the schema, so the baseline is 3. The description restates defaults (limit 10/max 100, sort_dir desc), the alias pairs (sort/order_by) and cursor paging, but adds little syntax or format meaning that the schema does not already carry.

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 ('Get the top liquidity pools across a whole network') plus the default ranking ('24h volume'), and explicitly positions itself as 'the primary chain-wide pool discovery tool'. It names the siblings it is not (getDexPools for single-exchange, getNetworkPoolsFilter for numeric/time filters), so an agent can route without opening any schema.

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?

Gives concrete trigger phrases ('biggest pools on ethereum', 'top trading pairs on Base', 'most active pools on Solana') and names two alternatives with the exact condition that selects each. Both when-to-use and when-to-use-something-else are covered.

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