UUID v4 generator

util_uuid

Cryptographically random UUID v4s, up to 100 per call, straight from the platform CSPRNG. For idempotency keys, request ids and correlation ids - the ones that must not collide. Flat $0.001 per call, paid over x402 (USDC).

A4.2/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

With no annotations, the description discloses important behavior: randomness comes from the platform CSPRNG and the call has a flat cost paid via x402. It does not state side-effect-free behavior explicitly, but generation is implied.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Three short sentences cover output, use cases, and cost with no redundant or promotional wording. The description is easy to scan and each sentence earns its place.

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?

The tool is simple and the description covers purpose, usage, output nature, and cost. It does not specify exact response shape when count > 1, but 'UUID v4s' with a count parameter makes the return format reasonably inferable.

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?

The schema already fully documents the only parameter, count, including range and default. The description adds no meaningful parameter-level information beyond restating 'up to 100 per call.'

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 clearly identifies the tool as producing cryptographically random UUID v4s, up to 100 per call. It distinguishes this from all sibling utilities by specifying uniqueness-focused use cases.

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?

It explicitly names target use cases: idempotency keys, request ids, and correlation ids that must not collide. It does not explicitly say when not to use it or name an alternative, but the guidance is specific enough.

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