Weight Converter

converters_weight_converter

Convert between weight and mass units: metric tons, kilograms, grams, milligrams, pounds, ounces and stones with exact international definitions. Use this when an agent needs to kilograms, pounds, ounces and more. x402 price $0.01/call (USDC, eip155:8453).

B3.4/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the burden. It usefully discloses a per-call x402 price ($0.01 USDC on eip155:8453) and claims 'exact international definitions', but says nothing about output precision, rounding, or return format for a numeric conversion.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness3/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The first sentence is well-formed and front-loaded, but the second is an incomplete/broken sentence ('needs to kilograms, pounds, ounces and more') that wastes space, and the pricing sentence is appended awkwardly. There is real editorial waste.

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?

For a simple three-parameter converter with full enum coverage and no output schema, the description covers scope, units, and cost adequately. It is nearly complete, lacking only output/precision notes that a caller of a numeric converter might want.

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% and both from/to enums are fully documented, so the schema already does the heavy lifting. The description merely restates the unit list and adds no syntax or semantics beyond what the enum already provides; baseline 3.

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+resource ('Convert between weight and mass units') and enumerates the exact unit set (t, kg, g, mg, lb, oz, st), which cleanly separates it from the length, volume, and temperature converter siblings. An agent can pick this tool without opening the schema.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

The only usage sentence is garbled and incomplete ('Use this when an agent needs to kilograms, pounds, ounces and more'), which conveys no real when-to-use condition and no alternatives. There is no guidance on when another converter (e.g. length or volume) would be the right pick.

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