fx_eur_pln

[PAID $0.002 USDC/call, x402, eip155:8453] Official EUR/PLN reference rate: latest European Central Bank fixing (or the official peg when PLN 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 model and price, the upstream source (ECB), the fallback to the official peg when PLN is pegged, that the method is reported back, and that the value is deterministic with no estimation. What it omits is freshness/caching behavior and what happens on payment failure or when no fixing exists for a date.

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?

One dense sentence that front-loads the pricing/transport prefix and then the resource definition; every clause (source, peg fallback, returned fields, no-estimate guarantee) adds information. The bracketed payment metadata is verbose but operationally necessary for a paid endpoint.

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 description correctly enumerates what comes back: the rate, the rate date, the derivation method, and source attribution. It leaves the numeric precision and the mechanics of completing the USDC payment unstated, but an agent has enough to decide and call.

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?

Zero parameters, so the baseline is 4; there is nothing for the description to disambiguate, and it correctly presents the tool as a parameterless lookup.

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 resource and scope: the official EUR/PLN reference rate from the ECB fixing, including what variants exist (peg-derived when PLN is pegged). Because each sibling is a distinct currency pair, naming the pair plus the authoritative source is enough to distinguish it from every other fx_* tool.

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 implied rather than stated: it is the latest fixing, which implicitly excludes historical lookups, but the description never names fx_timeseries (history) or fx_convert (conversion math) as alternatives. An agent must infer the routing from sibling names alone.

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