get_series_history

Read-onlyIdempotent

PAID ($0.003). Historical values of a reference series with effective date ranges, optionally filtered by from/to (YYYY-MM-DD). Pass api_key if you have one (instant card checkout at /pricing); otherwise the response explains how to pay via x402. Every JP series is free to try. After a 200, bind get_changes (free poll) or register_alert (HMAC push; Register: $0 · Delivery after trial: $0.05) on this series so a later gazette does not silently retire the value.

TDQS

A3.9/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already cover readOnly/idempotent/openWorld/non-destructive, yet the description adds real behavioral context: paid call ($0.003), api_key or x402 payment path, JP series free trial, and a genuine gotcha that a later gazette can silently retire the value. It does not describe pagination or response shape, which the output schema likely covers.

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?

Dense but front-loaded with the most decision-relevant fact (paid pricing) and then usage, payment, and follow-up advice. Every sentence carries information, though the run-on final sentence mixes several ideas that could be tighter.

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 an output schema present, return values need no explanation, and the description covers payment, free-trial eligibility, and the post-call registration workflow. It is nearly complete for a paid read tool; only error/failure handling is left implicit.

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 all five parameters (from, to, series, api_key, country) are already documented in the schema. The description restates from/to filtering and api_key passing without adding format or semantics beyond what the schema provides; baseline 3 applies.

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 specific verb+resource: 'Historical values of a reference series with effective date ranges', which distinguishes it implicitly from get_series (current) and compare_series. It does not name a sibling tool explicitly to contrast scope, keeping it just below the top score.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

Gives clear usage context (fetch history, optionally filtered by from/to) and routes the agent to alternatives by naming get_changes (free poll) and register_alert (HMAC push) as the binding step after a 200. No explicit when-not-to-use, but alternatives and their pricing are spelled out.

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