Save Watchlist

save_watchlist
Idempotent

Upsert a named watchlist with a list of tickers. Replace semantics — the full ticker list is the source of truth for that name. Use this for both creation AND modification (delete + recreate is not required for edits). 500-ticker cap per list. Names are case-insensitive uniqueness. Optional weights (ticker → relative number) marks a list the user HOLDS rather than merely follows; omit it entirely for an ordinary watchlist, and omit it on an edit to leave existing weights untouched.

Input Schema

nameYesUnique-per-user display name.
tickersYesUS tickers. Normalised to uppercase, deduped.
weightsNoOptional relative position weights, ticker → number (e.g. {"AAPL": 40, "MSFT": 60}). They need NOT sum to 1 or 100 — normalisation is a display decision. Any ticker not in `tickers` is dropped. Omit to leave existing weights untouched; pass null to clear them.
criteriaNoOptional free-form screening criteria description.

TDQS

A4.6/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Goes well beyond the annotations by disclosing replace semantics ('the full ticker list is the source of truth'), the 500-ticker cap, case-insensitive name uniqueness, and precisely what happens to weights on an edit versus a fresh save. That is exactly the kind of non-obvious mutation behavior the agent needs and that readOnlyHint/idempotentHint cannot express.

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?

Front-loads the upsert-and-replace contract, then the constraints, then parameter edge cases — a sensible ordering with little filler. The weights guidance is restated slightly ('omit it entirely... and omit it on an edit'), which costs a point on tightness.

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?

With an output schema present and annotations covering safety and idempotency, the description fills the remaining gap: replacement scope, size limits, name uniqueness, and the weights lifecycle. Nothing an agent needs to avoid corrupting an existing watchlist is missing.

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

Parameters4/5

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

Schema coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3; the description earns an extra point by adding the semantic layer the schema lacks — that weights marks a HELD list versus a merely followed one, and that omitting weights on an edit preserves existing values. The omit-vs-null mechanics are largely duplicated from the schema, which caps it at 4.

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?

States a specific verb ('Upsert') plus resource ('a named watchlist with a list of tickers'), and the 'named' qualifier plus uniqueness rule clearly separates it from get_watchlist, list_watchlists, and delete_watchlist. An agent can identify this as the write-side counterpart without opening the schema.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

'Use this for both creation AND modification (delete + recreate is not required for edits)' explicitly routes the agent away from a plausible but wrong workflow. It does not name a specific sibling tool or say when to prefer watchlist_diff/delete_watchlist, so it falls short of a full when/when-not/alternative treatment.

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