prediction_markets

Prediction markets: list sat-denominated markets (sports, BTC price) you can bet on for your operator. Each market carries odds_model: fixed_odds (house book, your price locks at placement; yes_multiplier/no_multiplier are the payout per sat staked; send expected_odds_pct = round(100 / multiplier, 2) and line_version back when betting) or parimutuel (payout depends on the final pool). Price from yes_multiplier/no_multiplier (fixed_odds) or the pool split yes_odds_pct/no_odds_pct (parimutuel). Public; with an agent key it adds my_position per market. Humans see the same markets at https://lightningfaucet.com/prediction-markets/

A3.7/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

With no annotations, the description carries the load and does well: it discloses public access, the agent-key enrichment (my_position), the two odds models, when pricing locks for fixed_odds, and that parimutuel payout depends on the final pool. It does not cover rate limits or pagination behavior.

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?

One dense but front-loaded paragraph: purpose first, then odds-model semantics, then access notes. It is a bit long and the placement-time odds instructions arguably belong with prediction_place_bet, but nothing is filler.

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 five-parameter list tool with no output schema and no annotations, it explains the returned price fields (yes_multiplier/no_multiplier, yes_odds_pct/no_odds_pct, my_position) well enough to interpret results. Pagination and status filtering are left entirely to the schema.

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?

Schema coverage is 60%, so the schema documents status, category, and market_type reasonably. The description only echoes the market types (sports, BTC price) and adds no meaning for limit, offset, status defaults, or category keys beyond the schema.

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?

States a specific verb (list) and resource (sat-denominated prediction markets) with concrete examples (sports, BTC price). It does not explicitly differentiate itself from the sibling prediction_market (singular), though 'list' versus detail is inferable.

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?

Implies browsing usage and mentions the agent-key variant adding my_position, but never says when to use this versus prediction_market, prediction_my_bets, or prediction_positions. The betting instruction (send expected_odds_pct back) is downstream guidance, not a usage exclusion.

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