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

No annotations are provided, so the description must disclose behavior; it clearly states the 0.1% Quietwork partner fee, Velora's 15% share, and that no other Velora fee applies. It frames the operation as a quote rather than execution, though it does not mention auth, rate limits, or quote expiration.

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

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

The description is a single front-loaded sentence with relevant fee and comparison details rather than fluff. Parenthetical density is high, but every element earns its place.

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

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

An output schema exists, so return values need not be explained, and the description covers purpose, chains, fee, and sibling comparison. However, with no annotations and 0% schema description coverage, it does not fully compensate for missing call-level details such as token format.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 0%, and the description does not explain the amount string format or tokenIn/tokenOut address format. It only adds the same-chain constraint and repeats the chain enum, leaving all four required parameters largely undocumented beyond their names.

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

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

States a specific verb ('quote') and resource ('same-chain swap via Velora Market'), lists supported chains, and discloses fee terms. It also distinguishes itself from swap_quote and KyberSwap, so an agent can identify it 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.

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

Explicitly advises comparing with swap_quote and notes Velora is often better than KyberSwap on some pairs, giving clear usage context. It stops short of stating when not to use it or any prerequisites such as quote expiry.

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