smc_find_liquidity_sweeps

Read-onlyIdempotent

Identify liquidity sweeps where price wicks through swing highs or lows and rejects, signaling potential reversals.

Instructions

Find liquidity sweeps — swing highs/lows wicked through and rejected.

A sweep takes stops resting beyond an obvious swing, then price closes back on the original side. Often precedes a reversal, and distinct from a BOS (which closes through the level).

Returns (JSON mode): {"symbol","interval", "liquidity_sweeps": [{"index","swept_level","swept_swing_index", "kind","time"}]}.

Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already indicate read-only and idempotent behavior. The description adds value by explaining the sweep concept, output format, and distinction from BOS, providing behavioral context beyond the annotations.

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?

The description is very concise: three sentences plus a returns format example. It front-loads the purpose and is well-structured with no wasted words.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness3/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Given the tool's complexity, annotations, and output schema example, the description covers the core concept and output but lacks parameter details and usage guidance, making it moderately complete.

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

Parameters2/5

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

The input schema has multiple parameters with descriptions, but the tool description does not mention any of them, leaving the agent without guidance on how to use parameters like symbol, interval, or lookback. Schema description coverage is 0% from the description's perspective.

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?

The description clearly states the tool finds liquidity sweeps and explains the concept, but does not explicitly differentiate from sibling tools like smc_find_fair_value_gaps or smc_get_market_structure.

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?

The description notes that sweeps often precede reversals and are distinct from BOS, hinting at usage for reversal detection, but it lacks explicit when-to-use or when-not-to-use guidance compared to alternatives.

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