openfinance_get_item_status

Read-onlyIdempotent

Returns the current status of a bank connection (UPDATED, UPDATING, LOGIN_ERROR, etc.), its executionStatus, connector metadata, and a reconnect_url that reopens the widget in UPDATE mode for that connection (re-authenticate / enter MFA token in place, without disconnecting and without consuming a connection slot). Omit item to get the status of ALL linked banks at once (returns { count, items }); pass item for a single bank.

Bulk support: accepts item_ids for batched execution.

A4.6/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

The description adds context beyond annotations: it discloses the reconnect_url behavior, possible status values (UPDATED, UPDATING, LOGIN_ERROR), and that it doesn't consume a connection slot. Annotations already indicate read-only, idempotent, non-destructive, consistent with description.

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?

The description is concise, front-loaded with the main purpose, and each sentence adds value. No wasted words.

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?

Given no output schema, the description covers return fields, multiple usage modes, and reconnect URL. Could mention behavior when both 'item' and 'item_ids' are provided, but overall sufficient for a read-only tool with good annotations.

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 0%, so the description must carry parameter meaning. It explains the effect of omitting 'item' vs passing it, and mentions bulk via 'item_ids'. However, it does not differentiate 'item' from 'item_id', nor specify constraints like data types beyond schema. Still adds substantial value.

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 clearly states the tool returns the current status of a bank connection, listing specific fields (status, executionStatus, connector metadata, reconnect_url). It differentiates from sibling tools like openfinance_list_connections by focusing on status and providing a reconnect mechanism.

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?

The description explains when to omit or include the 'item' parameter for all vs single bank, and mentions bulk support with 'item_ids'. It does not explicitly contrast with alternatives like openfinance_list_connections or openfinance_force_sync, but the usage patterns are clear.

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

A3.9/5.0
Disambiguation3/5

Most openfinance_* tools target distinct resource/action pairs, but openfinance_list_connections and openfinance_get_item_status overlap on connection status/reconnect URLs, and openfinance_list_transactions vs openfinance_list_transactions_by_item can be confused. The long descriptions reduce ambiguity, but selection risk remains.

Naming Consistency3/5

The openfinance_* block is consistently verb_noun, but the platform tools mix bare verbs (authenticate, connect), nouns (marketplace), and noun_info (toolkit_info). No single naming convention spans the whole set, though each subgroup is internally readable.

Tool Count3/5

At 25 tools, this sits at the top of the heavy borderline range. The broad scope—MCP.AI platform management, prompt library, and Open Finance data—justifies many tools, but the set feels like a bundled suite rather than a tightly scoped single-purpose server.

Completeness4/5

The Open Finance side is well covered: accounts, balances, transactions, credit card bills, loans, investments, connections, sync, status, provider health, and category updates. The platform side has auth, toolkit info, marketplace, and feedback. Minor gaps exist, such as no explicit identity fetch or payment initiation, but those seem outside the intended read/analysis domain.
