Super guarantee

super_guarantee
Read-onlyIdempotent

Australian superannuation guarantee (12%) an employer must pay on ordinary time earnings, or the split of a total package that includes super into base salary and super (package divided by 1.12). Use it for 'how much super is paid on $X' or 'what is the base salary in a $X package'. Returns AUD amounts. Doesn't apply the maximum super contribution base. Read-only and deterministic.

A3.9/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

The annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, destructiveHint=false and openWorldHint=false, so 'read-only and deterministic' largely restates structured data. The genuinely additive parts are the fixed 12% rate, the AUD return currency, and the caveat that the maximum contribution base is not applied — real behavioral context, but modest.

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?

Front-loaded with the definition and formula, then the usage examples, then the caveats — a logical order with no filler. The trailing 'Read-only and deterministic' sentence is partly redundant with the annotations, keeping it from a 5.

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 two-parameter calculator with full annotation coverage, the description covers purpose, both modes, currency, and the main scope limitation. Only minor gaps remain, such as rounding/precision of the returned AUD amounts.

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%, so the schema already documents both parameters, establishing a baseline of 3. The description's two example phrasings clarify what each mode yields (super amount vs. base salary split), but it adds no format, rounding, or edge-case detail for `amount`.

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 with the exact formula (12% of ordinary time earnings, or package / 1.12), which cleanly separates it from the income-tax and withholding siblings. An agent can tell instantly that this is the superannuation calculator, not a tax estimate.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

Gives concrete trigger phrasings ('how much super is paid on $X', 'what is the base salary in a $X package') that map to the two modes, and states an explicit exclusion (does not apply the maximum super contribution base). It does not name a sibling alternative for the cases it excludes, so it falls short of a 5.

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