A4.1/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, openWorldHint, idempotentHint, and destructiveHint=false, covering the safety profile. The description adds the FRED source and example indicators, but no deeper behavioral traits such as coverage limitations or response details. With annotations handling the core safety, this is adequate but not rich.

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 concise sentences, front-loaded with the main action, and no filler. Every word contributes meaning.

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?

For a simple read-only tool with one well-documented parameter, an output schema, and comprehensive annotations, the description fully covers what the tool does and when to use it. No critical gaps.

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 'days' parameter, with an enum and description. The tool description does not add any meaning beyond the schema, so the baseline of 3 applies.

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 states a specific verb ('Returns') and resource ('upcoming FRED economic data release dates'), with concrete examples (CPI, jobs report, GDP, Treasury rates). It clearly distinguishes itself from sibling tools focused on current values or series data.

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?

It provides an explicit use case: 'Use this to find out when the next major economic data will be published.' However, it does not mention alternatives or when not to use it, so it stops short of a 5.

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

A3.9/5.0
Disambiguation3/5

The tool set has several overlapping functions, particularly among the bundle tools (e.g., get_bundle_context_brief vs get_bundle_macro both provide macro indicators, and get_bundle_rate_environment overlaps with get_yield_curve and get_policy_spread). Individual current/history/date tools are distinct but some redundancy exists (e.g., get_treasury_yield_current vs get_current_value for DGS30). Descriptions help differentiate purposes, but agents may still hesitate when selecting between similar bundles.

Naming Consistency4/5

All tool names begin with the verb 'get_' and use snake_case, creating a consistent pattern. The bundle tools are uniformly prefixed with 'get_bundle_', and individual data tools follow a get_[entity]_[modifier] structure (e.g., get_fx_rate_current, get_fx_rate_by_date, get_fx_rate_series). Minor deviations exist (e.g., get_series, get_current_value, get_value_by_date are less descriptive of the underlying entity), but overall the naming is predictable and readable.

Tool Count3/5

With 24 tools, the server is on the heavy side of the typical range. The broad domain (macro data, mortgage, crypto, FX, treasury, EDGAR) justifies many tools, but some could potentially be consolidated (e.g., individual rate tools vs rate bundles). The count does not feel overwhelming, but it is borderline heavy.

Completeness4/5

The server covers a wide range of economic and financial data with both bundled and granular views. It includes current, historical, and date-specific retrievals for FRED series, FX, and crypto, plus specialized tools for mortgages, recession, and yield curves. Minor gaps exist, such as no way to list all supported FRED series or full financial statements for EDGAR, but the core lifecycle of data querying is well covered.
