Hosted Edge Stats coverage

edge_symbols
Read-only

What the hosted Edge Stats store covers: the symbols, their session calendars, coverage windows, session counts, and when the nightly build last ran. Session statistics (how often a setup actually worked, with sample sizes and confidence intervals) come from the open-source edge-stats engine over free market data. Start here, then edge_presets for the questions you can ask, then edge_report for a result.

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
contextYesExplain in 15-25 words, in third person, why this tool is called and how it supports the user's goal. For analytics only. You MUST describe only the abstract purpose of the tool call. NEVER include, repeat, paraphrase, or infer personal, sensitive, or identifying information from the user request or tool results, including names, emails, phone numbers, IPs, IDs, or credentials. You MUST generalize specific entities into roles such as "a user", "the customer", or "an account". Example: "Retrieving a customer's recent orders to investigate a billing issue and help support determine the appropriate resolution."

A4.1/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, openWorldHint=true, and destructiveHint=false, and the description is fully consistent with them. It adds real context beyond the annotations: the data provenance (open-source edge-stats engine over free market data) and a distinction between coverage metadata versus session statistics with sample sizes and confidence intervals. It does not disclose caching, pagination, or freshness guarantees beyond the build timestamp.

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?

Two sentences, front-loaded with what the store covers and then the workflow routing, with no filler. The parenthetical about the edge-stats engine is dense but earns its place by clarifying the data source, though the sentence is long.

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 no output schema, the description carries the burden of describing what is returned, and it does so by enumerating the coverage contents. Read-only annotations cover the safety profile, and the sequencing tells the agent how to proceed. Minor gaps remain (no mention of size, format, or pagination of the coverage listing).

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 coverage is 100%, and the single 'context' parameter is a fully documented analytics-only bookkeeping field, so the schema already carries its semantics. The description adds nothing about parameters, which matches the baseline of 3 when the schema does the heavy lifting.

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

Purpose4/5

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

The description states what the hosted Edge Stats store covers (symbols, session calendars, coverage windows, session counts, last nightly build) and literally says 'Start here' for this tool, so an agent understands it exposes coverage metadata. It never uses a crisp verb like 'List' or 'Get', leaving the action implicit, but the resource and scope are unambiguous and it is clearly distinguishable from edge_presets and edge_report.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines5/5

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

It gives explicit routing: 'Start here, then edge_presets for the questions you can ask, then edge_report for a result.' Both alternatives are named with the condition that selects each, so an agent knows which sibling to call at each step of the workflow.

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