Valuein — SEC EDGAR Fundamentals & Smart-Money Data

list_uploaded_documents
Read-onlyIdempotent

Use THIS — not `last_updated` — when telling a user how current the cross-sectional fundamentals are. The snapshot is republished on every weekday price refresh while the statements are carried forward unchanged, so `last_updated` can be far more recent than the numbers it sits next to. It is a floor for a single filer, not a ceiling: a filer with a live partition receives its filing, facts and ratios intraday (minutes after EDGAR dissemination), so an entity-scoped read may carry a filing newer than this; cross-sectional ranks (factor scores, earnings signals) refresh with the weekly bulk export."

A4.7/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true, and destructiveHint=false, and the description adds valuable behavior beyond that: uploads expire 24h after upload and only the caller's active documents are returned. It also states what is NOT returned ('no full text'), avoiding an erroneous expectation. This is strong transparency for a read-only listing tool.

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

Conciseness5/5

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

Two compact sentences carry all essential information: what is listed, what fields are shown, what to call instead, and the expiration caveat. Every clause earns its place and the most important scope detail is front-loaded.

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?

The tool is simple, has an output schema, and has comprehensive annotations. The description covers caller scope, return fields, the negative case (no full text), the alternative tool, and the 24-hour expiry. Nothing needed for correct invocation is missing.

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?

Schema coverage is 100% for the single optional 'limit' parameter, with minimum, maximum, default, and cap explanation already present. The description does not need to repeat parameter details, so a baseline 3 is appropriate. It adds no new parameter-specific semantics but does not need to.

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?

The description uses a specific verb and resource: 'List the caller's currently-active uploaded documents,' and enumerates the exact fields returned (filename, size, char count). It clearly distinguishes this tool from get_uploaded_document and delete_uploaded_document, so an agent can select it correctly without needing to open the sibling schemas.

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

Usage Guidelines5/5

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

The description explicitly tells the agent to call get_uploaded_document when full text is needed, which is the key alternative for this tool. It also clarifies the scope ('caller's currently-active') and the 24-hour expiry, giving clear when-to-use context. This is more than minimal guidance.

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