openfinance_update_transaction_category

Corrects the category of one or more transactions (PATCH /transactions/:id). Pass items as an array of { transaction_id, category_id } — transaction_id comes from openfinance_list_transactions, category_id from openfinance_list_categories. This overrides Pluggy's automatic categorization AND teaches Pluggy: recategorizing a transaction automatically creates a Category Rule for this client (case-insensitive exact match on the transaction's data), so FUTURE similar transactions are categorized the same way — use this to fix miscategorized transactions and improve categorization accuracy going forward. Batch shape: returns { updated, results: [{ transaction_id, category, categoryId }], errors: [{ id, status, message }] } — per-item errors do not fail the whole batch.

A4.7/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Discloses side effect of creating a Category Rule for future similar transactions and batch error behavior. Annotations only provide hints, so description adds significant behavioral context beyond annotations.

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?

Description is reasonably concise and front-loaded with the core action. Every sentence adds value, though slightly verbose on batch shape; still well-structured.

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?

Given no output schema, description includes return shape and error behavior. Covers side effect and parameter sourcing, making it complete for an agent to use correctly.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters5/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 0%, but description fully explains the `items` parameter structure and sources for transaction_id and category_id (from specific sibling tools), adding necessary semantics.

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?

Description explicitly states it corrects transaction categories via PATCH /transactions/:id, and distinguishes from sibling tools like list transactions and list categories by referencing their outputs.

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?

Clearly explains when to use (to fix miscategorized transactions) and mentions side effects (creates Category Rule). Lacks explicit when-not-to-use but context is sufficient.

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

A4.2/5.0
Disambiguation5/5

Each openfinance_* tool targets a distinct resource (account, transaction, bill, loan, investment) with a clear action (get/list/update/force_sync). The administrative tools (connect, authenticate, report_bug) are clearly separate. No two tools appear to perform the same function.

Naming Consistency4/5

The openfinance_* tools follow a consistent verb_noun pattern (e.g., get_account_balance, list_transactions, update_transaction_category). Minor deviations like openfinance_provider_status (lacks a verb) and openfinance_force_sync (verb phrase) slightly break the pattern, but the overall convention is predictable.

Tool Count4/5

25 tools is on the higher end but appropriate for a comprehensive Open Finance server covering accounts, transactions, bills, loans, investments, connections, and administration. Each tool has a distinct purpose and none feel redundant.

Completeness5/5

The tool surface is complete for the domain: it covers connection management (connect/disconnect/force sync/status), account and transaction queries, credit card bills, loans, investments, and transaction categorization, plus admin utilities. No obvious gaps that would block typical workflows.
