Tool Definition Quality
Average 4.1/5 across 3 of 3 tools scored.
Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose: health/config, quote with calldata, and a sample trust-check preview. The preview is explicitly marked as sample, eliminating any ambiguity with a real trust check, though no real trust check tool exists.
All tool names use snake_case with a consistent style: 'swap_health', 'swap_quote', and 'trust_check_preview' follow a predictable pattern of domain prefix + action/noun. The use of 'trust' instead of 'swap' for the third tool is a minor deviation but logical given its purpose.
At 3 tools, the server is on the low end of the typical range. For a swap server, this feels a bit thin, especially since one tool is only a preview and not a full feature. However, it's not ridiculously small, and the tools cover some essential aspects.
The server lacks a core swap execution tool—it only provides quotes with calldata, leaving the actual transaction broadcasting to the agent. Additionally, the trust check is only a sample preview, not a real evaluation. These gaps make the tool surface incomplete for a production swap server.

Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and destructiveHint=false, so the safe read-only nature is covered. The description adds the specific output (fee recipient, bps, supported chains) but does not discuss authentication, rate limits, or other side effects. It meets the baseline but offers limited extra behavioral context.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single sentence that is front-loaded with the verb 'Return' and resource. It lists key output details without any redundancy, making it highly concise and well-structured.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a zero-parameter tool with an existing output schema, the description fully conveys what the tool does. It doesn't need to explain return values in detail because the output schema provides that, and the annotations cover safety aspects.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema has zero parameters, so there is nothing for the description to clarify. Per the rubric, a baseline of 4 applies for no parameters, and the description doesn't need to compensate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description uses a specific verb 'Return' and identifies the resource as 'the swap router's health + configuration', with concrete output fields (fee recipient, bps, supported chains). This clearly distinguishes it from siblings like swap_quote and trust_check_preview.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is given on when to use this tool versus alternatives. The description only states what it does, with no 'use this when' context or exclusions. The agent must infer usage from the name and sibling tools.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
swap_quoteGet Swap QuoteARead-onlyInspect

Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare readOnlyHint and openWorldHint, so the description adds the value of mentioning the returned route is not guaranteed to be best across the broader market and that calldata is included. However, it does not expand on potential execution details or provider-specific behavior beyond this caveat.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is two sentences long, front-loaded with the core purpose, and includes only essential caveat information. Every sentence earns its place with no redundancy or fluff.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the presence of an output schema and clear annotations, the description is reasonably complete for a quote-fetching tool. It includes a relevant disclaimer about route representativeness, but it stops short of explaining how the returned calldata might be used or when the quote might expire, which would be useful context.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema has 100% parameter description coverage, so the baseline is 3. The description does not add parameter-level meaning beyond what the schema already provides, but it also does not need to compensate for missing schema documentation.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly identifies the tool as retrieving a swap quote, using the specific verb 'Get' and naming the resource ('multi-aggregator swap quote') plus a key differentiator ('ready-to-execute calldata'). This distinguishes it from sibling tools like swap_health and trust_check_preview, which focus on health checks and previews rather than quote generation.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No explicit guidance is given for when to use this tool versus alternatives. The description does not name sibling tools or provide exclusion criteria, leaving the agent to infer usage solely from the tool name and general context.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
trust_check_previewToken Trust Check (Preview)ARead-onlyIdempotentInspect
Get a SAMPLE-FIXTURE preview of the PaladinFi token-contract trust check.
⚠️ NOT a real evaluation. Returns fixed sample data with _preview: true,
every factor marked real: false, and recommendation prefixed sample-
(sample-allow / sample-warn / sample-block). Use this for shape-testing
your integration; DO NOT use the verdict to gate real swaps, signing, or any
production agent decision.
Programmatic safety check: before consuming any field of this response,
agents should test resp.get("_real") is True (top-level) — preview always
returns _real: false. Substring-matching on recommendation (e.g.
"allow" in resp["trust"]["recommendation"]) will INCORRECTLY match
sample-allow; use exact-equality (resp["trust"]["recommendation"] == "allow")
or test the _real field instead.
For REAL evaluations (3 paths, cheapest -> most-featured):
Free wallet-OFAC screen (v0.11.77+):
POST https://swap.paladinfi.com/v1/trust-check/ofacanonymous, rate-limited (1 r/s + burst 3), runs only the OFAC SDN wallet-screen leg with real data (
_real: true). Returns the samerecommendation: "allow" | "block"shape as the full endpoint (nowarnstate — OFAC is binary). Useful for agents that just need sanctions screening without the full composition. Includes_paid_endpoint_infoupgrade hint pointing at the paid endpoint. Wallet-OFAC scope — the Treasury SDN list carries wallet/EOA addresses, not token contracts. Use the paid endpoint for token-contract risk.

The paid endpoint composes live OFAC SDN screening (refreshed daily from the
Treasury XML feed), GoPlus token security, Etherscan source verification, and
PaladinFi anomaly + lookalike heuristics into a single
recommendation: "allow" | "warn" | "block" verdict.

Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
The description thoroughly explains the tool's behavior beyond annotations: it always returns `_preview: true`, every factor has `real: false`, and recommendation is prefixed with `sample-`. It also warns against substring matching and instructs to check `_real`. This adds significant context beyond the readOnly/idempotent annotations, with no contradiction.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Although the description is long, it is well-structured with clear warnings, bullet points, and sections. Every sentence serves a purpose: explaining the preview nature, safety check, and alternatives. It is front-loaded with the critical caveat, making it highly effective despite its length.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
The description covers all necessary context: what the tool returns, how to validate the response, and alternatives for real use. Given the tool's simple scope (fixured preview) and the presence of an output schema, this description is fully complete and leaves no ambiguity.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, and the description does not add new parameter semantics beyond what the schema already provides. The address and chainId descriptions in the schema are complete, so the description's lack of parameter detail is acceptable per the baseline rule.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description opens with 'Get a SAMPLE-FIXTURE preview of the PaladinFi token-contract trust check,' which clearly states the verb, resource, and scope. It explicitly distinguishes this tool from real evaluations and sibling tools (swap_health, swap_quote) by emphasizing it is only for shape-testing.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description explicitly states when to use the tool: 'Use this for shape-testing your integration; DO NOT use the verdict to gate real swaps, signing, or any production agent decision.' It also provides clear alternatives for real evaluations, including the free OFAC endpoint, plugins, and the paid endpoint, with a note on the free endpoint's limitations.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
