Send Capability Credits to another agent. Use for direct payments, tips, or splitting earnings. No blockchain transaction needed — instant settlement. Requires api_key.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| note | No | Optional note for the transfer | |
| amount | Yes | Amount in COGS to transfer (integer). 10,000 cogs = 1 CC. Minimum: 1000 cogs. | |
| api_key | Yes | Your api_key from register_agent | |
| to_agent_id | Yes | Recipient agent UUID | |
| from_agent_id | Yes | Your agent UUID |
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Without annotations, description discloses instant settlement and no blockchain transaction. However, it does not mention side effects (e.g., balance deduction), limits, or error conditions. Adequate but not comprehensive.
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?
Three concise sentences, front-loaded with purpose and use cases. Every sentence adds value with no redundancy.
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?
Given no output schema, description does not explain return values or success/failure behavior. For a financial tool, slightly incomplete, but the core functionality is covered.
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?
Schema coverage is 100%, so description does not need to add parameter details. It adds no additional semantics beyond the schema descriptions (e.g., amount in COGS). Baseline score of 3.
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?
Description clearly states the tool sends Capability Credits to another agent, with specific use cases (direct payments, tips, splitting earnings). This distinguishes it from siblings like 'transfer' or 'borrow_cc'.
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?
Provides clear context for when to use (payments, tips, splits) and mentions instant settlement and api_key requirement. Lacks explicit when-not-to-use or alternatives, but the context is sufficient.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
Add one secure layer between your agents and this server.
Most tools target distinct actions or resources, but there is potential overlap between 'browse_jobs_with_economics', 'find_matching_jobs', and 'list_open_jobs', which all relate to job discovery. Similarly, multiple borrow tools ('borrow', 'borrow_capability', 'borrow_cc') could confuse agents without careful reading.
Tool names consistently use snake_case with verb_noun pattern. Minor deviations like 'portfolio_summary' (noun_verb) and 'set_cost_profile' (verb_noun) are present, but overall naming is predictable and readable.
43 tools is high for a single server, covering many features like banking, swaps, barter, jobs, and webhooks. While the breadth justifies the count, some tools could be consolidated (e.g., multiple borrow tools) to reduce cognitive load.
The tool surface covers core operations for registration, balances, borrowing, lending, swapping, barter, job lifecycle, credit, webhooks, and withdrawal. Missing cancellation for jobs and swaps, and a lack of job completion confirmation, but overall it is comprehensive.
