get_market_sentiment
Read-onlyIdempotent

Multi-source market sentiment in one read: the crypto Fear & Greed index, CoinMarketCap’s variant, the traditional-market (CNN) Fear & Greed, and the Altcoin Season index. Useful for framing any "how is the market feeling" question.

TDQS

A4.4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint and destructiveHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds a genuinely useful behavioral fact: this is a single aggregate read that consolidates four separate sources ("multi-source ... in one read"), telling the agent it need not make four calls. Missing only freshness/coverage caveats.

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?

Two sentences, front-loaded with the substance (what is aggregated), then the use case. No filler, no restating of the tool name or title.

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?

An output schema exists, so return-value shape need not be explained, and the zero-param schema is trivially complete. The description covers scope and use case; only the data's source frequency/staleness is unaddressed, which is minor for a sentiment read.

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?

The tool takes zero parameters, so there is nothing to document; baseline 4 applies. No misleading parameter hints are present.

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 (market sentiment) and enumerates exactly which indices are aggregated: crypto Fear & Greed, CoinMarketCap's variant, CNN traditional-market Fear & Greed, and Altcoin Season. That enumeration distinguishes it cleanly from data-pull siblings like get_social_hype or scan_market without the agent needing to open a schema.

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 a concrete triggering situation — "how is the market feeling" questions — which is clear usage context. It stops short of naming an alternative tool or stating exclusions, so it is context without explicit routing.

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