tengu_v3_tape_index_bars

Intraday minute bars for the major index tapes — SPX, NDX, DJI, RUT, VIX — from FIRM's own market-data indices capture. Use for intraday market/vol context around an event (how did SPX and VIX move through the FOMC statement?) or as the benchmark leg next to tengu_v3_tape_bars. Archive begins 2026-05-14; one day or max 5 trading days per call.

A3.9/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It discloses the archive start date (2026-05-14) and per-call range limit (one day or max 5 trading days), which are concrete operational constraints not visible in the schema. However, it does not mention output format, real-time vs. delayed data, or other potential behavioral traits.

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?

The description is two sentences: the first front-loads the resource and purpose, the second provides use cases and key constraints. Every sentence earns its place with no redundancy or filler.

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

Completeness2/5

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

Given six parameters, no output schema, and no annotations, the description is under-specified. It covers core purpose and range limits but omits output bar fields, interval options, and parameter-date semantics. Without an output schema, agents cannot infer the return structure, leaving a significant gap for a data-retrieval tool.

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

Parameters2/5

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

Schema coverage is only 17% (only the required 'index' parameter has a description). The description lists valid index values but does not clarify semantics for start, end, date, limit, or interval. The 'one day or max 5 trading days' constraint hints at date-range behavior but does not explain how these parameters interact or the expected formats.

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 providing intraday minute bars for major index tapes (SPX, NDX, DJI, RUT, VIX) and distinguishes it from the sibling tengu_v3_tape_bars by positioning it as the benchmark leg. The verb 'bars' and explicit index list leave no doubt about the resource.

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?

The description explicitly recommends use for intraday market/vol context around events and as a benchmark leg next to tengu_v3_tape_bars, providing clear context and naming an alternative/companion tool. It does not state explicit 'when not to use' exclusions, but the benchmark-leg mention implies differentiation from individual-stock tape bars.

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

C2.9/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

With 336 tools, there is substantial overlap. Over a dozen health/status tools share nearly identical 'is the system healthy?' descriptions (e.g., tengu_status, tengu_ready, tengu_ml_health, tengu_v3_system_health, tengu_v3_stream_status), and multiple single-ticker analysis (tengu_ml_predict, tengu_copilot_score_ticker, tengu_v3_intel_ml_prediction) and top-picks (tengu_copilot_top_picks, tengu_ml_top_picks, tengu_v3_trade_setups) tools have poorly defined boundaries. Agents would frequently misselect.

Naming Consistency2/5

The server mixes no-version (tengu_crypto), v2 (tengu_v2_drift), v3 (tengu_v3_intel_*), and copilot (tengu_copilot_*) families, and within families there is inconsistent verb/noun ordering (tengu_v3_research_fetch_url vs tengu_v3_news_summary). While subfamilies like tengu_v3_private_markets_* are internally consistent, the overall naming pattern is chaotic and unpredictable.

Tool Count1/5

336 tools is far beyond any reasonable tool set size, even for an all-in-one financial data platform. This extreme count creates choice paralysis, high latency in tool selection, and makes the server effectively unusable for autonomous agents. The calibration guideline marks 50+ as extreme; this is nearly 7x that threshold.

Completeness4/5

The platform covers a vast domain: equity and crypto prices, fundamentals, insider trading, options, news (including crypto and FX), private markets, streaming data, risk metrics, and execution planning. There are minor gaps (no direct multi-ticker comparison tool, no order placement), but the surface is remarkably comprehensive for an analysis-focused server.
