Smarandache Sum

smarandache_sum
Read-onlyIdempotent

The sum of S(k) from 1 through n. Through 1 it is 1, through 6 it is 18, through 10 it is 40, and through 12 it is 55. n runs from 1 to 5000. Price: $0.001 USDC per successful call (x402, Solana). Same tool over HTTPS: POST https://scorptech.it.com/api/x402/v1/smarandache-sum

A3.6/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already cover the read-only, idempotent, non-destructive profile, and the description adds genuinely new context: the call is metered at $0.001 USDC per successful call via x402 on Solana, and an equivalent HTTPS endpoint is exposed. It does not describe error or refund behavior beyond the 'per successful call' phrasing.

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 operation and sample values, followed by the domain and payment terms; no filler sentences. The endpoint URL is on the long side but is real invocation-relevant information.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

With no output schema, the sample results effectively communicate the return value, and the input domain plus payment model are disclosed. The main gap is that the underlying sequence S(k) is never defined, leaving the agent reliant on sibling context.

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?

The single parameter has 0% schema description coverage, so the description carries the load. It restates the 1–5000 bound and anchors the parameter with four worked inputs and their outputs (1→1, 6→18, 10→40, 12→55), which is more informative than the bare min/max in the schema.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

States a concrete operation (sum of S(k) from 1 through n) with worked values that confirm the cumulative nature of the output. It does not define what S(k) is or contrast itself with nearby siblings like `smarandache`, `smarandache_least`, or `smarandache_quot`, though the name-plus-sum phrasing is reasonably discriminating.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

There is no statement of when to use this versus `smarandache` (single value), `smarandache_gap`, or other family members. An agent must infer the distinction from the names alone.

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