coingecko_gainers_losers

Retrieve CoinGecko's top crypto gainers and losers as separate arrays, including rank, price, 24h change, and volume, with configurable limit and quote currency.

Instructions

CoinGecko crypto gainers and losers. Returns CoinGecko's top crypto gainers and top losers as two separate arrays, gainers and losers, each up to limit rows (default 20, max 100). Each coin has its rank, symbol, name, price in vs_currency, 24h percentage change and 24h volume.

TDQS

A4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

With no annotations, the description carries the full burden and does well: it discloses the return shape (two arrays named `gainers` and `losers`), per-section row counts, and the fields each coin carries. It does not state read-only nature, auth requirements, or rate limits, which are minor given the obviously read-only nature.

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 tightly written sentences, front-loaded with the tool's purpose, followed by return structure and per-row fields. No filler and everything earns its place.

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

Completeness4/5

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

For a two-parameter tool with no output schema, the description adequately covers both inputs and the response payload. The only gap is the absence of any routing context relative to the many other coingecko_* siblings.

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 schema already documents both parameters fully, including the 'default 20, max 100' bounds for `limit`. The description largely restates those bounds and adds nothing new for `vs_currency` beyond its role as the quote currency.

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?

States a specific resource and scope: CoinGecko's top gainers and top losers. This is inherently distinct from siblings like coingecko_markets, coingecko_trending, and coingecko_new_coins, so an agent can tell what it does without opening the schema.

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 purpose implies when it is useful, but there is no explicit guidance on when to prefer this over coingecko_markets (full market data) or coingecko_trending, and no stated exclusions. Usage is only inferred from the purpose.

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