v0.2.1Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It does not mention authentication requirements, rate limits, pagination, or whether the call is read-only (though 'Get' implies it). For a market-data query against a live venue like Binance, those traits matter.
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?
Two short sentences with no waste; the core purpose is front-loaded. The second sentence is somewhat generic filler but does hint at intended use.
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?
The description covers purpose and a light use case, which fits a simple one-parameter read tool. However, with no annotations and no output schema, it leaves unstated whether the call is read-only, authenticated, or paginated, which an agent would benefit from knowing.
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 100%, so the single optional symbol parameter is fully documented in the schema. The description adds no parameter detail beyond what the schema provides, making the baseline 3 appropriate.
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?
States a specific verb (Get) and resource (all current open orders) scoped to Binance USDⓈ-M Futures. It is clearly distinguished from siblings like get-all-orders, query-order, and get-trade-history by the 'open' qualifier.
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?
Gives contextual usage ('monitoring pending orders and managing active trades') but does not explicitly state when to prefer this over query-order, get-all-orders, or when it should not be used. Usage is implied rather than explicit.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
