Top 10 coins snapshot (free)

free_crypto_top10
Read-only

FREE. Top 10 crypto prices: rank, USD price and 24h change from Chainlink on-chain feeds (snapshot refreshed about every 30 min). lookup_coin ($0.001) covers ~155 coins with 1h/7d/30d change and 24h high/low.

A4.5/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and openWorldHint=false. The description adds useful behavioral context beyond that: the data comes from Chainlink on-chain feeds and is refreshed about every 30 minutes, which helps an agent judge freshness.

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?

Two sentences, front-loaded with 'FREE' and the core resource, with no wasted text. The alternative-tool note is compact and useful.

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?

With no output schema, the description appropriately lists the returned fields (rank, USD price, 24h change), the source, refresh cadence, and the paid alternative. Nothing an agent needs in order to call this zero-parameter snapshot correctly is missing.

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?

There are zero parameters, so parameter semantics are minimal by design. The baseline for no params is 4, and the schema has full coverage with additionalProperties=false.

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 states a specific resource and scope: top 10 crypto prices with rank, USD price, and 24h change. It also distinguishes itself from lookup_coin by coverage and fields, so an agent can tell what this tool does 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 Guidelines4/5

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

It names the paid alternative lookup_coin and explains its broader coverage (~155 coins) and additional metrics (1h/7d/30d change, 24h high/low). This gives clear selection context, though it does not explicitly say when not to use this free snapshot.

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