Account Status

astroway_account_status
Read-onlyIdempotent

Check your API key's plan, credit balance, and billing period end before invoking expensive endpoints to confirm available budget.

Instructions

Check the calling API key: plan, credit balance and when the billing period ends. Run this BEFORE invoking expensive endpoints (Tier 4+ at 100+ credits, Tier 6/7 at 500-5000 credits) to confirm the user has budget. Returns plain-text human-readable summary.

A4.4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already establish readOnly, idempotent, and non-destructive, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds value beyond them by disclosing the return shape ('plain-text human-readable summary'), which matters because there is no output schema, and by framing the call as a cheap pre-flight budget guard. It does not say what happens with an invalid or exhausted key, which keeps it from a 5.

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?

Three short sentences, front-loaded with what is checked, followed by the when-to-use rule, followed by the return format. Every sentence carries distinct information and nothing is repeated from the schema or annotations.

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?

For a zero-parameter read with no output schema, the description supplies the essentials: what is inspected, when to call it, and that the result is plain text. Minor omissions — error/expired-key behavior and whether the summary is stable machine-parseable text — are not blocking for correct invocation.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

The tool takes zero parameters, so the baseline is 4. The description correctly implies no inputs are needed by scoping the call to 'the calling API key', which removes any ambiguity about whether an account identifier must be supplied.

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?

States a specific verb+resource ('Check the calling API key') and enumerates exactly what is returned: plan, credit balance, and billing period end. This is clearly distinguishable from the astrological computation siblings, which do chart work rather than account introspection.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Gives an explicit precondition — run it BEFORE expensive endpoints — and quantifies 'expensive' with concrete thresholds (Tier 4+ at 100+ credits, Tier 6/7 at 500-5000 credits). It stops short of stating when the check can safely be skipped (e.g. cheap Tier 1-3 calls), so it is strong context without a full when/when-not pair.

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