kaspa_tx_status
Mempool status of a Kaspa transaction. Absent from mempool means accepted-or-unknown — confirm acceptance by checking one of its outputs with kaspa_utxos. Paid (~$0.00015).

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations, description carries full burden. It discloses paid nature, and the ambiguity of 'accepted-or-unknown'. However, it does not specify the return format or error handling, so slightly incomplete.
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?
Two sentences, front-loaded with purpose, no wasted words.
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?
Lacks output description; agent doesn't know what the tool returns (e.g., boolean, status string). For a status check, this is a notable gap, especially with no output schema.
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?
Only one required parameter (txid), self-explanatory. Description does not add detail about format or constraints, but with schema coverage 0%, baseline is 3, and no additional value is provided.
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?
The description clearly states it checks the mempool status of a Kaspa transaction, distinguishes from confirmation by pointing to kaspa_utxos, and includes cost information.
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 tells when to use (check mempool), what absence means, and suggests using kaspa_utxos for confirmation, providing clear guidance on when to switch tools.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
