Read-only

Flood risk for one full UK postcode (England): Environment Agency flood warning areas within 1 km with their rivers or sea, and any flood warnings in force within 3 km right now. Costs $0.01 per call, paid in USDC on Base with x402.

Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already cover read-only and open-world behavior, and the description adds genuinely new context: a $0.01 per-call charge paid in USDC on Base via x402, the 1 km / 3 km search radii, and the England-only coverage boundary. It does not describe output shape or what happens for an unmatched postcode, which keeps it short of a 5.

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, both earning their place: the first delivers purpose plus geographic and radius scope, the second delivers the pricing model. Nothing is repeated from the schema and the most decision-relevant facts come first.

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 one-parameter, read-only lookup with no output schema, the description covers the key decision factors an agent needs — cost, coverage geography, input strictness, and what data is returned. It stops short of describing response structure or behavior on invalid/out-of-scope postcodes.

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% and the single parameter already carries an example, so the baseline is 3. The description adds real meaning beyond that: the postcode must be a *full* postcode, not a district or partial, and must be in England — constraints the schema does not express.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description names a specific verb+resource (flood risk for a single full UK postcode) and pins down the exact data returned: Environment Agency flood warning areas within 1 km with their rivers or sea, plus live warnings within 3 km. It is unambiguous about scope, though it never contrasts itself with the property_* siblings, so an agent must infer the boundary on its own.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

Usage is implied rather than stated: 'one full UK postcode (England)' and 'right now' signal when the tool applies, and the England-only geographic limit is a useful exclusion. There is no explicit when-to-use vs. alternatives guidance and no prerequisites or failure conditions are described.

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