compare_protocols

Read-only

Compare lending protocols side-by-side by TVL, deposits, borrows, revenue, users, and pools. Tolerates individual endpoint failures.

Instructions

Compare multiple protocols side-by-side: TVL, deposits, borrows, revenue, users, pools. Sorted by TVL. Tolerates individual endpoint failures.

A4/5.0

Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already indicate readOnlyHint=true. The description adds valuable behavioral context: 'Sorted by TVL' and 'Tolerates individual endpoint failures,' which go beyond annotations. However, it lacks details on output format or error behavior.

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?

Two sentences with no extraneous words. The first sentence states the core function and metrics, the second adds sorting and resilience. Front-loaded and efficient.

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?

Given the single parameter with full schema coverage and no output schema, the description covers the essential information (metrics, sorting, failure tolerance). It provides enough context for an agent to understand the tool's output scope.

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 parameter is fully documented. The description does not add new information beyond what is in the schema (array of protocol slugs with allowed values). Baseline score of 3 applies.

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 clearly states the tool compares multiple protocols side-by-side and lists the specific metrics (TVL, deposits, borrows, revenue, users, pools). This distinguishes it from siblings like get_protocol (single) and list_protocols (listing only).

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 implies usage for comparing multiple protocols but does not explicitly state when to use it over alternatives like get_protocol for single protocols or top_markets_by_tvl. No exclusions or alternatives are mentioned.

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