fx_aud_ils

[PAID $0.002 USDC/call, x402, eip155:8453] Official AUD/ILS reference rate: latest European Central Bank fixing (or the official peg when ILS is pegged), with the rate date, the method (direct, cross via EUR or peg-derived) and the source attribution. Deterministic, sourced, no estimate.

A4.1/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

With no annotations, the description carries the full burden and does well: it discloses the paid x402 access model ($0.002 USDC/call on eip155:8453), the authoritative source (ECB), the peg fallback path, the method used (direct, cross via EUR, or peg-derived), and that no estimation occurs. It does not state fixing cadence (daily ECB publication, weekend/holiday gaps) or what happens when no fixing exists, which are the remaining behavioral unknowns.

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?

Two sentences, front-loaded with the price/payment metadata an agent must know before calling, then the resource definition. It is dense but every clause carries information (source, method, fallback, no-estimate guarantee); the second sentence runs long but is not padded.

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?

For a 0-param, no-output-schema lookup, the description covers cost, source, fallback logic, and the key returned fields (rate date, method, source attribution). Missing only freshness/caching semantics and error behavior for non-fixing days, which keeps it short of full completeness.

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 tool takes zero parameters, so the baseline is 4 and there is nothing further the description could add about inputs. The pair is fully baked into the tool identity, which is the correct design for a 0-param endpoint.

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 names the exact resource (AUD/ILS reference rate) and its provenance (ECB fixing, or official peg when ILS is pegged), so the pair and data source are unambiguous. Against a sibling set of hundreds of fx_* pair tools, the explicit currency pair and source statement make it clear which tool this is without opening the schema.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

Usage is only implied: an agent can infer it should call this when it needs an AUD-to-ILS reference rate, and the peg clause hints at the ILS edge case. There is no explicit guidance on when to prefer this over fx_convert, fx_latest, or the cross-pair tools such as fx_aud_eur plus fx_eur_ils, and no stated exclusions.

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