TDQS

B3.1/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

With no annotations, the description carries the burden of behavioral disclosure. It usefully notes public-page sourcing, normalized output, and that sections are omitted when absent, but it does not explicitly state read-only behavior, response format, or rate-limit/auth expectations.

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

Conciseness3/5

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

The description is short, but the opening 'CoinGecko chain detail' restates the tool name, and the vs_currency sentence largely duplicates the schema. The useful information is the normalized-sections and omission behavior.

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?

For a three-parameter read tool with no output schema, the description covers the basic fetch-and-return behavior and the schema covers the parameters. It is sufficient for a straightforward call, but omits any sense of what sections actually appear, leaving the response shape underspecified.

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 description coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The description adds little beyond the schema: it only restates that vs_currency is supported and gives no new meaning for id, limit, or vs_currency.

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 that the tool returns normalized sections from a CoinGecko public chain detail page, establishing a specific resource and operation. It is distinguishable from sibling coingecko_chains by the singular 'chain detail' focus, though it does not enumerate the sections returned.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

No guidance is provided about when to choose this tool over related CoinGecko siblings such as coingecko_chains, coingecko_coin, or coingecko_markets. The usage context is only implicit in the tool name 'chain detail'.

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