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

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
sortNoOPTIONAL: 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.
limitNoOPTIONAL: Number of items per page (default: 10, max: 100)
cursorNoOPTIONAL: 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.
networkYesREQUIRED: Network ID from getNetworks (e.g., 'ethereum', 'solana')
sort_byNoOPTIONAL: 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_byNoOPTIONAL: 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_dirNoOPTIONAL: 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.
rationaleYesREQUIRED. 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

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
queryNoEcho of the resolved query and filters the API applied.
resultsYes
next_cursorNoOpaque pagination cursor. Pass back as the `cursor` argument to fetch the next page; null/absent on the last page.
has_next_pageNoTrue 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?

The annotations already establish read-only, non-destructive, idempotent, open-world behavior. The description adds useful context beyond annotations by noting the tool is keyless and by explaining the response envelope: results with has_next_page and next_cursor for pagination. It does not cover rate limits or broader operational 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?

The description is front-loaded with the core purpose and return shape, then usage examples, alternatives, and parameter notes. It is dense and mostly earns its space, though the parameter sentence largely repeats schema content and makes the definition longer than strictly necessary.

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 an 8-parameter, 100%-covered schema with an output schema and rich annotations, the description is complete enough to call the tool correctly. It covers purpose, expected use cases, sibling alternatives, pagination behavior, and key defaults.

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%, so the schema already documents every parameter, including defaults, enums, and aliases. The description summarizes the same parameter facts but does not add meaning beyond the schema, so baseline 3 is appropriate.

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 states a specific verb and resource: get top liquidity pools across a whole network, ranked by 24h volume by default. It also explicitly distinguishes this as the primary chain-wide pool discovery tool versus getDexPools and getNetworkPoolsFilter, so an agent can identify its role without opening siblings.

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?

It gives concrete usage examples such as 'biggest pools on ethereum' and 'top trading pairs on Base', and names alternatives explicitly: use getDexPools to narrow to one exchange and getNetworkPoolsFilter for numeric/time filters. When-to-use and when-to-use-something-else are both clear.

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