Description is concise with three bullet points. Main purpose is front-loaded, no unnecessary words. Every sentence adds value.

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?

No output schema, but description explains return content (top tools, top packs, total call volume). Also covers data source, privacy, and caching. For a simple read tool, this is fully complete.

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% with good descriptions. Description adds meaning: 'shorter windows surface what's hot right now; longer windows show steady-state demand', helping the agent choose the appropriate window. Default is implied.

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 states it returns top tools, top packs, and total call volume over a window. The verb 'returns' and resource are explicit, and the tool is easily distinguished from siblings like 'discover_tools' which is about discovering tools, not trending.

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?

Description lists three specific use cases (discovering hot data sources, confirming canonical choice, aligning use case). Though it doesn't explicitly state when not to use, the use cases provide clear guidance. Comparison to siblings is implicit.

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

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

Annotations already indicate readOnlyHint, openWorldHint, idempotentHint, and destructiveHint false. The description adds extensive behavioral details: how scans work, monotonicity checks, partition checks, semantic anchor, partition filter, fill check logic, and response structure. It even warns when not to trade (realizable_edge_pp ≤ 0). No contradictions.

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 lengthy but well-structured with clear sections (SEMANTIC ANCHOR, PARTITION FILTER, FILL CHECK). It is front-loaded with the core purpose and modes. Every sentence adds value, though some details could be condensed without losing meaning.

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 tool's complexity and lack of output schema, the description comprehensively covers all use cases, parameters, edge cases (skipped_low_similarity, placeholders), and response fields (opportunities, partition_check). It also references related tools for fill check and custom sizing, making it self-contained.

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%, but the description greatly enriches parameter meaning. For 'event', it explains it's a Polymarket event slug and provides examples. For 'topic', it explains it's a seed question for cross-event scanning and what it does. The description adds behavioral context that the schema's brief descriptions lack.

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 states the tool finds arbitrage opportunities on Polymarket via monotonicity violations and partition-sum checks. It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like polymarket_edges by focusing on arbitrage detection. The verb 'find' and resource 'arbitrage opportunities on Polymarket' are specific.

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 explains when to use each mode: no args for a trending scan, 'event' for a specific market, and 'topic' for cross-event scanning. It also recommends using polymarket_fill_risk for custom sizing, providing an alternative. However, it does not explicitly exclude scenarios or compare to other sibling tools besides polymarket_fill_risk.

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

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

Annotations already declare the tool read-only, idempotent, and non-destructive. The description adds substantial behavioral context: response segments (by_segment), diagnostics to explain empty results, caching at KV level keyed on knobs, and detailed model family logic. No contradictions with annotations.

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 long but well-organized, starting with the core purpose and then detailing model families, response structure, and caching. It is front-loaded with the main use case. While every sentence is informative, slight trimming could improve conciseness.

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 complex tool with 9 parameters, 100% schema coverage, and no output schema, the description compensates by thoroughly explaining the response structure (by_segment, diagnostics, fed candidates) and caching behavior. It is comprehensive enough for an agent to understand what to expect.

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% with detailed descriptions for all 9 parameters. The tool description does not add extra meaning beyond the schema; it focuses on response structure and model families. Baseline 3 is appropriate as schema already handles parameter semantics.

It distinguishes itself from siblings like polymarket_arbitrage by focusing on disagreement detection and daily discovery.

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 frames the tool for 'what should I bet on today' and mentions agents can discover opportunities without paging hundreds of markets, but does not directly compare to alternatives or state when not to use it.

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

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

Annotations already indicate safe, idempotent read. Description adds valuable behavioral details: snapshot gaps, decay computation (daily closes), history TTL (60 days), and meaning of computed fields. No contradiction with annotations.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

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

The description provides clear context on when to use it (to compare new vs. old edges) but does not explicitly state when not to use it or name alternative tools. The sibling list implies alternatives but not stated.

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

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, openWorldHint=true, idempotentHint=true, destructiveHint=false. The description adds significant behavioral context: it walks the order book ladder, returns specific fields (top_of_book, vwap_fill_price, slippage_pp, etc.), and explains critical risks (partial fills convert arb into unhedged position). No contradiction with annotations.

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?

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?

Explicit guidance is provided: 'USE THIS before acting on any polymarket_arbitrage SELL/BUY-EVERY-LEG signal or any polymarket_edges trade above ~$500.' It also explains why (theoretical overround not capturable on thin books, partial fills create unhedged directional risk).

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

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

Annotations (readOnlyHint, openWorldHint, idempotentHint, destructiveHint) are present, and the description adds significant context: safety fields (compatibility_warning, temporal_alignment, skipped_cross_type/subtype), explanation of when spreads are meaningless, and bet shape equivalence checks.

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 dense but front-loads the core purpose. It could be more structured (e.g., bullet points for types), but the paragraph format remains efficient and every sentence adds value.

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 tool's complexity (3 params, nested objects, no output schema), the description is thorough. It covers all subscription types, delivery options, return value, and prerequisites. No significant gaps.

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?

With 100% schema coverage, the description adds extra meaning by providing type-specific examples and clarification (e.g., items for sec_8k, topic for polymarket_edge). This goes beyond the schema's parameter descriptions.

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 states the tool's purpose: 'Create a proactive monitoring subscription to a live-data event stream.' It specifies the return value ('Returns the new subscription id') and distinguishes from sibling tools like list_subscriptions, unsubscribe, and recent_alerts.

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 provides explicit context such as requiring a Pipeworx OAuth account (excluding anonymous/BYO). It details supported types and their parameters. However, it does not explicitly mention when not to use this tool or suggest alternatives like list_subscriptions for viewing existing subscriptions.

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

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true, and destructiveHint=false. Description adds that it returns category-bucketed example questions with exact tool+argument shape from a live catalog, which is useful 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.

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Description is moderately long but front-loaded with primary purpose. Every sentence provides value, though could be slightly more concise. Structured with examples and parameter guidance.

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?

Despite no output schema, description explains the return format (category-bucketed with tool+argument shape). Covers the single parameter and usage context fully, making it complete for the tool's purpose.

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% with description for topic parameter. Description adds extra context by listing possible values (finance, pharma, etc.) and explaining that omitting gives a cross-category spread, adding meaning beyond schema.

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 states the verb 'suggest' and resource 'questions', and explains it is the onboarding entry point that returns category-bucketed example questions. It distinguishes from sibling tools by positioning itself as the first tool to use for exploring capabilities.

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?

Explicitly states 'Use this FIRST when you do not yet know what Pipeworx can do for you' and mentions optional topic parameter. Lacks exclusions or when not to use, but clear context is provided.

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

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

The description adds value beyond annotations by disclosing ownership enforcement and that the row is deactivated (not deleted) with historical events preserved. Annotations already indicate it is a write operation (readOnlyHint=false), non-destructive (destructiveHint=false), and idempotent (idempotentHint=true). No contradictions.

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 extremely concise at two sentences, with the action front-loaded. No unnecessary words; every sentence adds value.

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 simple tool with one parameter, no output schema, and rich annotations, the description is fairly complete. It explains the deactivation behavior and ownership rule. However, it lacks mention of the return value or confirmation of the action, which would be helpful.

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% with a single 'id' parameter described as 'Subscription id (uuid) returned by subscribe'. The description does not add extra meaning beyond the schema, such as format or constraints. Baseline 3 is appropriate.

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 states 'Cancel a subscription by id', specifying the verb (Cancel) and the resource (subscription by id). It distinguishes from sibling tools like 'subscribe' and 'list_subscriptions' by indicating this tool performs cancellation, not creation or listing.

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 ownership enforcement: 'you can only cancel your own subscriptions', which guides when to use the tool (only for own subscriptions). It also explains the deactivation behavior (not deletion) and that historical events stay, providing context on the effect. However, it doesn't explicitly state when not to use or mention alternatives.

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

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

Annotations already indicate the tool is read-only, open-world, idempotent, and non-destructive. The description adds valuable behavioral context, including the domain limitation (only company-financial claims via SEC EDGAR + XBRL) and the return format (verdict, extracted form, actual value with citation, percent delta). No contradiction with annotations.

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 dense paragraph with front-loaded examples. While it contains all necessary information, it could be more structured (e.g., separated lines) for easier parsing. It is not overly verbose but sacrifices some clarity for conciseness.

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 single parameter, no output schema, and rich annotations, the description fully covers what the tool does, when to use it, its limitations, and return format. It leaves no significant gaps for the agent to interpret.

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 schema covers 100% of the single parameter 'claim'. The description adds meaning by specifying natural-language format and giving examples, which helps the agent formulate valid input beyond the schema's brief description.

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 states the tool's purpose: natural-language claim verification against authoritative sources, specifically company-financial claims. It provides examples of input queries and outlines the returned verdicts, effectively distinguishing it from sibling tools by noting it replaces 4-6 sequential calls.

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 advises when to use the tool: whenever the agent needs to fact-check a user's statement, particularly company-financial claims. While it does not list alternatives or when not to use it, the context is clear enough for an agent to decide appropriately.

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