get_currently_live

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and openWorldHint=true, so the safety profile is covered by structured data. The description adds nothing beyond that: no pagination behavior, no result ordering, no freshness semantics for 'currently-live', which is the single most ambiguous term in the definition.

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?

It is short, but this is under-specification rather than conciseness: a single fragment with no verb and no actionable detail. Brevity here removes information an agent needs rather than trimming waste.

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?

For a 3-parameter, zero-coverage query tool with no output schema, the description should at minimum clarify what 'live' means, how results are scoped, and how paging works. None of that is present, leaving the agent to guess at invocation.

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?

Schema description coverage is 0% and the description never mentions page, chain, or limit. The most important parameter, chain, accepts a union of string and number with no explanation, and the description does nothing to compensate for that gap.

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 noun phrase identifies the resource ('currently-livestreaming token launches'), so an agent can infer this returns a set of live token launches. However, it lacks a verb, states no scope, and offers zero differentiation from near-siblings like get_live_status, get_newest_tokens, or get_trending_tokens, which an agent cannot distinguish from this one.

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?

There is no when-to-use guidance, no exclusions, and no mention of alternatives. The description gives no hint whether this is preferred over get_live_status or get_newest_tokens for a given need.

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