webaz_price_history

Read-only

Product historical sale price + volume — helps agents avoid bottom-price dumping bait.

Returns: windows {d30, d90, lifetime} each {sales, volume, avg, median, p25, p75} | price_buckets [{price, count, qty, pct}] | daily_avg (30-day trend) | category_avg_30d | anomaly_flags (current_below_70pct_median / far_below_category_avg / far_above_category_avg). insufficient_data: true if sparse.

A3.7/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, destructiveHint=false and openWorldHint=true, so the safety profile is covered. The description goes further and discloses what actually comes back: three time windows with percentile spreads, price buckets, daily trend, category benchmark, and named anomaly flags, plus the `insufficient_data: true` degradation case. It does not mention history depth costs, data lag, or auth, which keeps it below a 5.

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?

Purpose is front-loaded in the first clause, followed by a compact pipe-delimited return-shape spec — dense but structured, with no filler sentences. Minor deduction for cryptic shorthand (d30/d90, p25/p75) that assumes familiarity rather than defining it.

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?

No output schema exists, so the description must document the response itself — and it does thoroughly, including window keys, bucket fields, and the sparse-data sentinel. What's missing is peripheral: whether history is per-product only, and how missing/unknown product_id is handled.

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

Parameters3/5

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

There is a single required parameter (product_id) with 100% schema description coverage, so the schema already carries the meaning and the description adds nothing about the identifier format or expected source. Baseline 3 applies when the schema does the work and the prose is silent on parameters.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

Names a specific resource and scope: historical sale price AND volume for a product, with a stated rationale (detecting bottom-price dumping bait). This clearly separates it from transactional siblings like webaz_buy or webaz_place_order, though it never names its closest analytical sibling (webaz_verify_price) explicitly.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

Usage is only implied via the motivation clause 'helps agents avoid bottom-price dumping bait' — an agent can infer this is a pre-purchase sanity check. There is no explicit statement of when to call it versus webaz_verify_price or webaz_search, and no prerequisites or exclusions.

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