Get balances

get_balance
Read-only

Get the subaccount collateral (USDC asset position) and the on-chain wallet bank balances. Collateral is what backs trading; the WALLET balance is where money sent to the account lands and is NOT collateral until deposited. funding summarizes it: depositableUsdc (wallet minus the $0.95 gas reserve) and a suggestedAction — deposit_to_subaccount when the wallet holds spare USDC, top_up_gas when gas is low.

A4.8/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, and the description adds meaningful behavioral detail: it explains what collateral vs wallet means, how depositableUsdc is computed (wallet minus the $0.95 gas reserve), and what suggestedAction indicates. This is exactly the extra context an agent needs beyond the read-only hint.

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?

Three dense sentences that earn their place: the main purpose, the key conceptual distinction, and the funding summary/action. No filler or repetition.

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 no-argument, read-only tool without an output schema, the description still explains both balance types and the funding sub-object's practical meaning. Nothing critical is missing for an agent to invoke and interpret this tool correctly.

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

Parameters5/5

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

The tool has zero parameters and schema coverage is 100%, so there are no parameter meanings for the description to add. The description instead explains the output semantics, which is more valuable here.

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 opens with a specific verb and resource: 'Get the subaccount collateral (USDC asset position) and the on-chain wallet bank balances.' It then clearly distinguishes collateral from wallet balance, making the tool's scope unambiguous relative to balance-related siblings.

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 does not explicitly list sibling alternatives or exclusion criteria, but it provides clear operational context: collateral backs trading, wallet funds are not collateral until deposited, and the `funding` summary decides deposit_to_subaccount vs top_up_gas. This is enough for an agent to understand when this tool is the right read-only check.

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

A3.7/5.0
Disambiguation3/5

Most tools are clearly distinct, but there is overlap among the read-heavy account tools: get_balance/get_funding_status/fund virtually duplicate each other, and get_equity/get_portfolio/get_position_risk/get_open_orders/get_positions all converge on equity and open-position data. The detailed descriptions help an agent choose, but several tools have fuzzy boundaries.

Naming Consistency4/5

The overwhelming majority follow the expected verb_noun convention: get_*, place_*, cancel_*, close_*. Minor deviations such as batch_cancel, get_candles_multi, top_up_gas, and whoami make the pattern not perfectly uniform, but the inconsistency is small.

Tool Count2/5

At 33 tools, the surface is beyond what most agents need and includes several redundant query helpers rather than genuinely distinct operations. A broad exchange can justify a large surface, but get_balance/get_funding_status, get_equity/get_portfolio/get_position_risk, and get_candles/get_candles_multi make the set feel top-heavy.

Completeness4/5

The core lifecycle is well covered: market discovery, market data, order placement/cancellation, position management, risk, funding transfers, PnL, and account status. Obvious gaps are limited to historical order lookup by order ID, a way to cancel across all markets in one call, and a few optional account-history conveniences.
