Group Transactions

group_by
Read-only

Group transactions by a dimension (month/category/counterparty/account/currency) and apply a metric to each group. Results are per-currency. The "counterparty" dimension keys on the printed counterparty, else a printed account mask (••1234), else the description's name tokens, so a rail word or reference number never splits one payee; a line with no key groups under "unknown". Scope defaults to all your completed statements; pass "scope" to narrow to specific accounts/products and/or a date range.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
scopeNoOptional structural scope (WHO × WHEN). Omit to search across all your completed statements. "accounts" is a list of account/product chips ({ kind: "account" | "product", id }, the id of an account descriptor or product returned by a tool); "dateRange" bounds by transaction date (YYYY-MM-DD).
filterNoSubset of transactions to operate on. All fields are optional and combined with AND logic.
metricYesMetric per group.
dimensionYesGrouping dimension.

A4.5/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Adds substantial behavior beyond the readOnly/destructive/openWorld annotations: results are computed per-currency, the counterparty keying fallback chain (printed counterparty, then account mask, then description name tokens) so rail words or reference numbers never split a payee, and unkeyed lines land in an "unknown" bucket. These are exactly the traits an agent needs to interpret output correctly.

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-loads the purpose, then layers in the per-currency caveat and scope default. Three sentences with no filler, though the counterparty sentence is clause-heavy and could be split for faster scanning.

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?

An output schema exists so return shape needn't be explained; the description covers the non-obvious semantics (per-currency results, default scope, unknown bucket) that an agent would otherwise guess wrong. Minor gaps remain around pagination/limits and how metrics behave across multiple currencies in one result set.

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?

Schema coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3, but the description adds real meaning for the ambiguous enum value: it defines how "counterparty" is keyed and what happens when no key exists, plus the default behavior of the optional scope object. It adds nothing for metric or filter, keeping it short of a 5.

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 (group), resource (transactions), the exact grouping axes, and the metric applied per group, which lets an agent separate it from aggregate, time_series, and top_n without opening a schema. The enumerated dimensions map directly to the required parameter.

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 operating context: scope defaults to all completed statements, and passing "scope" narrows to accounts/products and/or a date range. It never names a sibling alternative or states when another tool would be the better choice, so the guidance is clear but not exclusionary.

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