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

No annotations are provided, so the description must convey behavioral traits. It discloses pricing ($0.10 per call, x402 payment on USDC Base mainnet), the input parameters and their formats, and the output contents (safety score, holders, etc.). It does not mention rate limits or side effects, but for a read-only dossier tool this is acceptable.

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?

The description is verbose and repetitive, e.g., 'Full degen token dossier in one call' followed by a list that is then partially repeated. The first sentence contains core information, but redundancy reduces clarity. It could be streamlined without losing content.

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 the tool has only 2 parameters and no output schema, the description provides sufficient context: use case (due diligence before buying), supported chains, pricing/payment, and the fields returned. While it lacks authentication details beyond payment, it is largely complete for a tool of this complexity.

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 description coverage is 100%, with both 'chain' and 'token' parameters already well-described in the schema. The tool description reiterates the parameter names and types but adds no new semantic detail beyond what the schema provides. Thus it meets the baseline 3 but does not exceed it.

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?

The description explicitly states it's a 'full degen token dossier' and lists key components: safety score, honeypot/tax, top holders, concentration, liquidity/FDV/volume/pool-age, contract control, AI red-flag narrative. It distinguishes itself from a 'plain safety check' and mentions it's a premium tier. The verb 'dossier' combined with the detailed list clearly defines the tool's purpose.

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?

The description indicates usage 'before aping' and positions itself as a premium tier above a plain safety check, implying deeper due-diligence. It also specifies supported chains (EVM and Solana) and pricing. However, it does not explicitly name sibling tools like 'crypto_token_safety' or provide when-not-to-use guidance, lacking full comparative context.

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