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

With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It explains that Pipeworx 'picks the right tool, fills the arguments, and returns the result,' which covers the automation aspect. However, it lacks details on error handling, rate limits, authentication needs, or what happens if no data source is found. The description adds some context but is incomplete for a tool that abstracts complex operations.

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 front-loaded with the core functionality in the first sentence, followed by explanatory details and examples. Every sentence earns its place by clarifying usage and providing concrete instances, with no wasted words. It is appropriately sized for a tool with a simple parameter set.

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 (abstracting multiple data sources) and lack of annotations or output schema, the description is somewhat incomplete. It explains the high-level behavior but omits details on response formats, error conditions, or limitations. The examples help, but more context on what 'best available data source' means would improve completeness for an agent.

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% description coverage, with the 'question' parameter documented as 'Your question or request in natural language.' The description reinforces this by stating 'Ask a question in plain English' and providing examples, adding practical meaning beyond the schema. With only one parameter, the baseline is high, and the description effectively complements the 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 tool's purpose: 'Ask a question in plain English and get an answer from the best available data source.' It specifies the verb ('ask'), resource ('answer'), and mechanism ('Pipeworx picks the right tool, fills the arguments'), distinguishing it from sibling tools that appear to be more specific (e.g., get_species, search_species).

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 this tool: 'No need to browse tools or learn schemas — just describe what you need.' It provides clear alternatives (implicitly suggesting not to use sibling tools for general queries) and includes examples like 'What is the US trade deficit with China?' to illustrate appropriate use cases.

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 indicate readOnly, openWorld, non-destructive. Description adds details: resolves market, classifies bet, fans out to packs, returns comparison. Discloses behavioral traits beyond annotations, such as fan-out logic and data sources.

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 efficient and front-loaded with main purpose. All sentences add value, though slightly lengthy. Could be more concise but still 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?

Given no output schema, description explains output (evidence packet, comparison) and behavior (fan-out, classification). Covers both parameters and use cases. Complete for a research tool.

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?

100% schema coverage, but description adds meaning: explains depth enum values ('quick = 2-3 sources, thorough = full fan-out') and provides examples for market parameter. Adds value 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?

Description clearly states it researches Polymarket bets by pulling Pipeworx data. Specifies input types (slug, URL, question text) and output (evidence packet, market-vs-model comparison). Distinguishes from siblings by being the core demo product for bet-specific context.

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 lists use cases: 'should I bet on X?', 'what does the data say?', 'is there edge?' Gives context for when to use but does not explicitly exclude alternatives or mention when not to use.

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?

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the burden. It discloses return format (paired data + resource URIs) and specifies data per entity type. It does not mention destructive behavior, auth needs, or rate limits, but the tool appears read-only and the description covers key behavioral aspects.

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 four sentences, front-loaded with the main purpose, then breaking down by type and return format. Every sentence adds value, and there is no 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 tool has no output schema, the description adequately explains what is returned (paired data + resource URIs) and the data fields for each type. It could mention pagination or error handling but is sufficient for a moderately complex comparison tool.

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 description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents both parameters. The description adds value by providing examples and clarifying that values can be tickers/CIKs for companies and names for drugs, enhancing the semantic understanding.

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?

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

The description explicitly states it replaces 8–15 sequential agent calls, indicating when to use it for efficiency. It does not explicitly list when not to use it or name alternative tools, but the context is clear that it is for side-by-side comparisons.

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?

With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It describes the search functionality and return format ('most relevant tools with names and descriptions'), but lacks details on error handling, rate limits, or authentication requirements. It adds some value but leaves behavioral gaps.

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 efficiently structured in two sentences: the first explains the core functionality, and the second provides critical usage guidance. Every word serves a purpose, with no redundancy or unnecessary elaboration, making it highly readable and front-loaded.

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 moderate complexity (search functionality with 2 parameters) and lack of annotations or output schema, the description does well by explaining the purpose, usage context, and return format. However, it could benefit from more behavioral details like error cases or result limitations to be 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 description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents both parameters thoroughly. The description mentions the query parameter implicitly ('by describing what you need') but adds no meaningful semantic context beyond what the schema provides. This meets the baseline for high schema coverage.

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 with specific verbs ('search', 'returns') and identifies the resource ('Pipeworx tool catalog'). It distinguishes from sibling tools by focusing on tool discovery rather than data retrieval, making its role explicit and differentiated.

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 guidance on when to use this tool ('Call this FIRST when you have 500+ tools available and need to find the right ones for your task'), including a specific condition (500+ tools) and a clear alternative scenario (using it first). This gives strong contextual direction for tool selection.

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?

No annotations provided, so the description carries the full burden. It discloses that the tool makes a single call replacing 10-15 sequential calls and specifies the data sources included. It does not mention potential latency or rate limits, but for a read-only profile tool, the transparency is adequate.

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?

Two sentences, front-loaded with the tool's purpose. Every sentence provides essential information: what it returns, how it works, and when not to use it. No waste.

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, the description adequately describes return contents (data types and citation URIs). It could benefit from mentioning pagination or result limits, but it is reasonably complete for the tool's scope.

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 adds value beyond the schema by clarifying that 'value' can be a ticker or CIK but not a name, and that only 'company' type is supported. It also directs users to resolve_entity for name-based lookups, enhancing parameter understanding.

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?

Description clearly states it provides a full entity profile across relevant packs, listing specific data types (SEC filings, revenue, patents, news, LEI) and citation URIs. It distinguishes itself from sequential calls and explicitly notes when to use an alternative tool (usa_recipient_profile for federal contracts).

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 when to use: for comprehensive entity profiles in one call. Provides clear alternatives: use usa_recipient_profile for federal contracts, and use resolve_entity first if only a name is available. This gives the agent unambiguous guidance.

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?

With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It states this is a deletion operation, implying it's destructive, but doesn't specify whether deletions are permanent, reversible, or require specific permissions. For a mutation tool with zero annotation coverage, this is a significant gap in safety and operational 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, efficient sentence that directly states the tool's function without any wasted words. It's appropriately sized for a simple tool with one parameter and is front-loaded with the core action.

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 destructive tool with no annotations and no output schema, the description is incomplete. It doesn't explain what happens after deletion (e.g., confirmation, error if key doesn't exist), return values, or error conditions. Given the mutation nature and lack of structured safety hints, more context is needed.

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 description coverage is 100%, with the single parameter 'key' fully documented in the schema as 'Memory key to delete'. The description adds no additional meaning beyond what the schema provides, such as format examples or constraints. With high schema coverage, the baseline score of 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 the action ('Delete') and the resource ('a stored memory by key'), making the purpose immediately understandable. However, it doesn't differentiate this tool from potential siblings like 'recall' or 'remember' which might also manipulate memories, leaving room for improvement in sibling distinction.

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 no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'recall' or 'remember'. It doesn't specify prerequisites (e.g., needing an existing memory key) or exclusions, leaving the agent to infer usage context from the tool name alone.

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?

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It discloses the tool's behavior as a retrieval operation with optional filtering, but it lacks details on rate limits, authentication needs, error handling, or response format. For a tool with no annotations, this is a moderate gap in 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?

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 moderate complexity (3 parameters, no output schema, no annotations), the description is adequate but incomplete. It covers the purpose and basic usage but lacks details on behavioral traits like response structure or limitations. Without annotations or output schema, more context would be helpful for full completeness.

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 description coverage is 100%, so the input schema fully documents the parameters (key, limit, country). The description adds minimal value beyond the schema by mentioning the optional country filter, but it does not provide additional syntax or format details. Baseline 3 is appropriate as the schema handles most of the parameter 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 states the verb ('Retrieve') and resource ('georeferenced occurrence records for a taxon'), specifying the data type and scope. It distinguishes from sibling tools like 'get_species' and 'search_species' by focusing on occurrence records rather than species information, making the purpose specific and differentiated.

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 clear context for when to use the tool ('Retrieve georeferenced occurrence records for a taxon') and includes an optional filter ('Optionally filter by ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code'), but it does not explicitly state when not to use it or name alternatives like the sibling tools, leaving some guidance implicit rather than fully explicit.

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?

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It mentions the tool retrieves 'full taxonomic details,' which implies a read-only operation, but lacks details on rate limits, error handling, or response format. The description adds some behavioral context but is incomplete for a tool with no annotations.

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

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?

With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It effectively describes key traits: it's a write operation ('store'), specifies persistence differences (authenticated vs. anonymous sessions with 24-hour limit), and implies session-scoped memory. It doesn't cover error cases or rate limits, but adds substantial context beyond basic function.

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 front-loaded with the core purpose in the first sentence, followed by usage context and behavioral details. Every sentence adds value (e.g., use cases, persistence rules) with zero wasted words, making it efficient 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 2-parameter tool with no annotations and no output schema, the description is largely complete: it explains the tool's function, usage context, and key behavioral aspects like persistence. It could improve by mentioning return values or error handling, but it adequately covers the essentials given the tool's moderate complexity.

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 description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents both parameters (key and value) with examples. The description adds no additional parameter-specific information beyond what's in the schema, such as constraints or usage tips, meeting the baseline for high schema coverage.

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 with specific verbs ('store a key-value pair') and resource ('in your session memory'), distinguishing it from siblings like 'recall' (retrieval) and 'forget' (deletion). It explicitly mentions use cases like saving intermediate findings, user preferences, or context across tool 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 provides clear context on when to use this tool (e.g., for saving data across tool calls) and distinguishes it by function from siblings like 'recall' for retrieval. However, it lacks explicit exclusions or alternatives, such as when not to use it versus other storage mechanisms.

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?

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the burden. It mentions the tool is v1 and only supports company, and describes return fields, but does not disclose side effects, rate limits, or auth requirements.

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 concise sentences with no wasted words. It front-loads the core purpose and follows with key details.

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 no output schema and no annotations, the description adequately covers input formats, return fields, and the tool's purpose. It could mention any limitations beyond 'v1' or expected behavior for invalid inputs.

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 both parameters are described. The description adds value by providing concrete examples of accepted inputs (e.g., 'AAPL', '0000320193', 'Apple'), enhancing the schema's enumeration.

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 resolves an entity to canonical IDs across Pipeworx data sources, specifying type 'company' and accepting ticker, CIK, or name. It distinguishes from siblings by noting it replaces 2-3 lookup 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 explains when to use the tool ('in a single call' and 'replaces 2-3 lookup calls'), but does not explicitly state when not to use it or provide alternatives among siblings.

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?

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It mentions what the tool returns ('matched taxa with rank, status, and classification'), which is helpful, but lacks details on error handling, rate limits, authentication needs, or whether this is a read-only operation. For a search tool with zero annotation coverage, this leaves significant gaps in understanding its behavior.

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, well-structured sentence that efficiently conveys the tool's purpose, search method, and return values. It is front-loaded with key information and avoids unnecessary words, making it easy for an agent to parse quickly.

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 moderate complexity (search with two parameters) and lack of annotations or output schema, the description is minimally adequate. It covers the basic purpose and return format but omits important contextual details like error conditions, pagination, or how results are ordered. Without an output schema, the agent must rely on the description's brief mention of return values, which is insufficient for full understanding.

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% description coverage, clearly documenting both parameters ('query' and 'limit') with their purposes and constraints. The description adds minimal value beyond the schema, only implying the search scope ('GBIF species backbone') without providing additional syntax or format details. This meets the baseline score of 3 when the schema does the heavy lifting.

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 with a specific verb ('Search') and resource ('GBIF species backbone'), and mentions the search criteria ('by name or keyword'). It doesn't explicitly differentiate from sibling tools like 'get_species', but the search focus is clear. The description avoids tautology by providing meaningful context beyond just the tool name.

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 no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'get_species' or 'get_occurrences'. It mentions the search functionality but doesn't specify scenarios where this tool is preferred or excluded, leaving the agent to infer usage based on the tool name alone.

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?

With no annotations provided, the description fully discloses the tool's behavior: it returns a verdict, structured claim, actual value with citation, and percent delta. It also explains the underlying process (SEC EDGAR + XBRL) and notes it replaces 4–6 agent calls, giving a complete picture.

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, with no redundant information. The first sentence clearly states the purpose and capabilities, the second details output and efficiency. Every sentence is meaningful 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?

Given the tool's simplicity (one parameter, no output schema, no annotations), the description covers all necessary aspects: purpose, domain constraints, output format, and context. It is complete and leaves no critical 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?

The single parameter 'claim' has a schema description that includes examples. The tool description adds value by clarifying the supported claim types and expected format, going beyond the schema's description. With 100% schema coverage, the baseline is 3, but the additional context raises it to 4.

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 fact-checks natural-language claims against authoritative sources, specifies the domain (company-financial claims) and sources (SEC EDGAR + XBRL), and highlights its efficiency gain over multiple agent calls. This distinguishes it from siblings like 'compare_entities' or 'resolve_entity'.

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 the supported claim types (revenue, net income, cash for public US companies) and lists possible verdicts, providing clear guidance. However, it does not explicitly state when not to use the tool or mention alternative tools for other claim types.

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