get_collateral_info

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

No annotations provided, so description must carry behavioral disclosure. Merely states 'get info' without mentioning permissions, data latency, or whether it returns full details. Lacks transparency about what the tool actually does beyond the broad category.

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?

Extremely concise; no filler. However, structure is minimal with only a single line for description and an Args section. While efficient, it sacrifices completeness.

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?

Despite low complexity (1 optional parameter, no output schema), the description fails to provide enough context. Does not explain what 'collateral coin info' includes, the meaning of haircut rates, or how the returned data can be used.

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%, so description must add meaning. It only mentions 'currency' as an optional filter, but does not explain allowed values, format, or how filtering affects results. Insufficient compensation for missing schema descriptions.

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?

Clearly states it retrieves collateral coin info with example of haircut rates. Distinguishes from other get_ tools by specificity, though not explicitly contrasted with siblings like get_coin_info.

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?

No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like get_coin_info or get_all_coins_balance. No context about prerequisites or typical use scenarios.

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