Get investment holdings

well_get_investment_holdings
Read-only

Get the live holdings/positions (what's currently held and its value) for a connected Plaid investment account — brokerage, IRA, 401k, etc.

WORKFLOW:

  1. well_list_connectors() → pick the ENABLED Plaid connector (connection_status: "enabled") and read its workspace_connector_id directly off the row.

  2. well_get_investment_holdings({ workspace_connector_id }) → the current holdings, fetched fresh from Plaid on every call (never stored/stale data).

Only works on Plaid connectors that support the investments product — not the MCP-transport connector-tool-passthrough tools (well_list_connector_tools / well_invoke_connector_tool), and not for investment transactions (buy/sell/dividend/fee), which are queryable as ordinary rows via well_query_records on the transactions root instead.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
workspace_idNoTarget workspace. This read reports one workspace's own data. Omit it and the token's primary workspace answers, which may not be the one you mean; the result names the workspace that did.
conversation_idNoThe conversation id returned by the previous Well result, in its meta under well/conversation_id, in its structuredContent, or in its JSON text block. Pass it back on every call in the same conversation, including a call a card makes, so the chosen workspace and the earlier answers still apply. It decides the conversation on its own: nothing the host states about the session replaces it. Omit it only on the first call of a conversation.
workspace_connector_idYesThe connected Plaid provider's workspace_connector_id (from well_list_connectors).

Output Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
errorNo
successYes
holdingsNo
conversation_idNoThe conversation this result belongs to. Pass it back as the conversation_id argument on every later Well call in the same conversation.
resolved_workspaceNoThe workspace that answered, when the caller named none and the token authorizes several.
conversation_id_noteNoPresent only when the server opened a fresh lane, stating that no choice recorded earlier was read.
conversation_id_sourceNoWhere the conversation id came from: the host's own request meta, the caller's argument, or a fresh lane the server opened.

TDQS

A4.9/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already mark the tool read-only and non-destructive, and the description adds the valuable behavioral guarantee that holdings are 'fetched fresh from Plaid on every call (never stored/stale data).' It also discloses the product constraint (only Plaid connectors supporting the investments product) and what the tool is not for, with no contradiction to annotations.

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 front-loaded with the core purpose, then uses a labeled WORKFLOW and explicit exclusions. Every sentence earns its place; the length is justified by the routing decisions an agent must make and there is no filler or repetition.

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

Completeness5/5

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

Given the annotations, a full output schema, and detailed parameter descriptions, the description supplies the essential missing workflow glue: how to obtain the workspace_connector_id, which sibling tools are not the right ones, and where to go for investment transactions. Nothing critical is missing for correct invocation.

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 schema already documents all three parameters in detail (100% coverage), so the baseline is 3. The description adds extra operational meaning beyond the schema by telling the agent to pick the connector with connection_status 'enabled' and to read workspace_connector_id 'directly off the row,' which is useful parameter-filling guidance not present in the schema.

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 opens with a concrete verb and resource: 'Get the live holdings/positions (what's currently held and its value) for a connected Plaid investment account.' It also differentiates itself from connector passthrough tools and investment-transaction queries, so an agent can distinguish it from siblings like well_list_connector_tools and well_query_records.

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?

The WORKFLOW section gives an explicit two-step recipe: call well_list_connectors, select only the ENABLED Plaid connector, read workspace_connector_id, then call this tool. It further states exclusions ('not the MCP-transport connector-tool-passthrough tools', 'not for investment transactions') and names well_query_records for transactions, making when-to-use and when-not-to-use unambiguous.

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