USA Spending MCP Server

execute

Write Python code to chain multiple USA Spending API tool calls and produce a unified result.

Instructions

Chain await call_tool(...) calls in one Python block; prefer returning the final answer from a single block. Use return to produce output. Only call_tool(tool_name: str, params: dict) -> Any is available in scope.

Behavior2/5

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

With no annotations provided, the description must fully disclose behavior. It mentions that only `call_tool` is available and that `return` produces output, but it omits critical details like execution environment, side effects, timeout, error handling, and security restrictions.

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 three concise sentences with no extraneous content, front-loaded with the core purpose, and every sentence adds value.

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

Completeness2/5

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

Despite low complexity (one parameter), the description is insufficient for safe usage of arbitrary code execution. It lacks details on output handling, variable scope, error propagation, and security constraints, making it incomplete for an agent to reliably invoke this tool.

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 coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3. The description adds minimal value by detailing the `call_tool` signature and return usage, but it essentially repeats the schema's code description.

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 explicitly states that the tool executes Python code to chain asynchronous tool calls via the `call_tool` function, distinguishing it from siblings like `get_schema` and `search` which are for single operations or queries.

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 advises to 'prefer returning the final answer from a single block' implying a pattern, but it does not explicitly state when to use this tool versus making individual calls or using alternatives, nor does it provide exclusion criteria.

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