Zambo

Live Price

live_price

Read-onlyIdempotent

Real-time cryptocurrency price lookup for supported coins. Uses CoinGecko first, Coinbase as a secondary no-key provider, then the most recent cached verified value with its age if both live providers are unavailable. Returns live USD price, 24-hour percentage change, and market capitalization when verified. AER-1 receipt, verifiable offline.

Input Schema

Name	Required	Description	Default
`_ref`	No	Optional handover referral ID from your install link.
`coin`	No	Alias for symbol. Accepts the same coin ticker or name, for example BTC.
`symbol`	No	Coin ticker or name - BTC, ETH, SOL, DOGE, BNB, XRP, MATIC, AVAX, ADA, LINK, DOT, UNI, ATOM, NEAR, APT, OP, ARB, SUI, PEPE, WIF, BONK, TON, TRX, LTC, SHIB. Case-insensitive.
`_zambo_key`	No	Optional opaque Zambo access capability. Never place it in a URL or public log.
`_session_id`	No	Optional stable bot-job ID. Reuse it across calls to bind a Day Pass and keep the job ledger together.
`_caller_label`	No	Optional caller label recorded as a caller-reported claim in the receipt.	zambo-starter
`_caller_handle`	No	Opaque anonymous continuity handle returned during initialize. Reuse it across MCP sessions; it is not payment authorization.
`_continuity_ai_label`	No	Optional self-reported AI client label for the private continuity timeline. Zambo does not independently verify the client.

A4.3/5.0

Behavior5/5

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

Goes well beyond the readOnly/idempotent annotations by disclosing the fallback resolution order, that cached values are returned with their age when live providers fail, and that an offline-verifiable AER-1 receipt accompanies the result. That is exactly the behavioral context an agent needs to interpret freshness.

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?

Front-loaded with the core purpose followed by the fallback chain, with no wasted words. The trailing 'AER-1 receipt, verifiable offline' fragment is slightly terse/jargon-heavy but still carries useful information.

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-value detail is optional, and the description still names the key fields (USD price, 24h change, market cap). It is essentially complete for a zero-required-parameter lookup, though it could clarify the symbol-vs-coin alias relationship relied on by callers.

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 the symbol/coin alias and the optional metadata fields (_ref, _zambo_key, _session_id, etc.) are already documented. The description adds nothing about which parameters drive the lookup, so the baseline of 3 applies.

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 verb and resource ('Real-time cryptocurrency price lookup for supported coins') and enumerates provider sources. No sibling tool covers price lookups, and the description makes the tool's domain unmistakable at a glance.

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?

Explains the provider priority chain (CoinGecko, then Coinbase, then cached value with age), which tells the agent when results may be stale. It does not explicitly state when to prefer an alternative or what to do if all sources fail, but no sibling performs this function.

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