Post Instances Payin Quotes Fx

PostV1InstancesPayinQuotesFx

Retrieve the FX rate for a payin quote by specifying instance ID, source and target currencies, and amount; use it to calculate currency conversion.

Instructions

Get FX Rate

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
instance_idYes
requestBodyYes
Idempotency-KeyNoOptional key to safely retry this request without performing the action twice. Retrying with the same key and an identical body replays the original response; reusing a key with a different body returns an error. Keys are kept for 24 hours.

C2/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=false, openWorldHint=true, idempotentHint=false, and destructiveHint=false, so the safety profile is structured. The description adds no behavioral context about quote generation, side effects, or retries, and 'Get' may understate the non-read-only POST operation without explicitly contradicting it.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness2/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The text is only three words, so it is not bloated, but it is under-specified rather than appropriately concise for a nested POST quote endpoint. No useful structure or front-loaded context exists beyond the bare phrase.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness1/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a complex POST with a nested required body, enums, an optional idempotency key, and no output schema, the description does not explain the operation's result or conditions. It is not complete enough for correct invocation.

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

Parameters1/5

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

The input has a nested requestBody and only 33% schema description coverage; the description gives no meaning for instance_id, from/to, request_amount, currency_type, or Idempotency-Key. It therefore fails to compensate for the low schema coverage.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose3/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description names an action and resource ('Get FX Rate'), but it omits the payin-quote context in the tool name and does not distinguish it from PostV1InstancesQuotesFx or PostV1InstancesPayinQuotes. An agent can infer a rate lookup but not the specific scope.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

There is no statement of when this tool should be used instead of siblings such as PostV1InstancesPayinQuotes or PostV1InstancesQuotesFx, nor any prerequisites. The agent must guess from the name alone.

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