BinanceGetOpenOrders

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

With no annotations, the description carries the full burden. 'Get' implies a read-only operation, and it clarifies that all symbols are returned if symbol is omitted. However, it does not disclose authentication needs, rate limits, pagination, or whether it covers only spot markets, which are relevant behavioral traits.

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

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

The description is a single sentence, front-loaded with the action, and contains no redundant information. Every word contributes to clarity.

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

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

The tool is simple with one optional parameter and no output schema, so the description is mostly sufficient. It covers purpose and symbol behavior, but could be more complete by noting return format or clarifying the market type (spot vs futures) given the diverse Binance sibling tools.

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

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

The schema already documents the 'symbol' parameter with an example, and the description adds the behavioral nuance that the parameter is optional and that omitting it returns all open orders. This adds meaning beyond the schema.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description uses a specific verb ('Get') and resource ('all open orders') and clearly states the scope ('for a specific symbol or all symbols'). This distinguishes it from siblings like BinanceAllOrders and BinanceGetOrder by focusing on open orders.

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

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

The description does not mention when to use this tool versus alternatives such as BinanceOpenOrderList or BinanceAllOrders. It offers some guidance on the optional symbol parameter but no explicit context for tool selection or exclusions.

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