Which client answers this chain

chain_client_version
Read-onlyIdempotent

web3_clientVersion for the node that served the call — the build string is how you tell reth from erigon from a proxy that is silently serving a different chain. Costs $0.001 USDC per call. Chains: base, ethereum, arbitrum, bsc, polygon, optimism, avalanche. Byte-identical to GET /chain/client-version?chain=base.

TDQS

A4.3/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnly, idempotent, non-destructive behavior. The description adds useful behavioral information: per-call cost, supported chain list, and byte-identical equivalence to a REST endpoint. No contradiction with annotations.

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?

Four short sentences, each purposeful: purpose and rationale, cost, supported chains, and REST equivalence. No filler or redundant detail.

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?

For a one-parameter read-only tool with an output schema and clear annotations, the description covers purpose, cost, supported chains, and REST equivalence. Nothing essential for correct invocation is missing.

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?

The schema already fully describes the single chain parameter with the same chain list. The description repeats the supported chains and shows the REST equivalent but adds minimal semantic value beyond the schema. Baseline 3 is appropriate.

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 explicitly that it returns web3_clientVersion for the node that served the call and explains the build string distinguishes reth, erigon, and proxies. This is a specific verb+resource and clearly sets it apart from the many chain_* siblings.

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?

Provides clear context: use this to identify which client/implementation actually served the call, especially to detect a proxy serving a different chain. It also lists supported chains and cost, but does not explicitly name alternatives or when-not-to-use.

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