createCopyTradeBind

Destructive

Start Copy Trading Classic by binding your UTA account to a leader's mark with an investment amount, enabling automatic follow trading.

Instructions

Create a new Copy Trading Classic follow binding by specifying a target leaderMark and the intended investmentE8 only.

The service automatically uses the caller's UTA account, resolves the UTA account ID, derives the effective symbol scope, and calls the downstream CopyTrade binding flow with system-filled defaults.

Common business failures include:

  • invalid leaderMark

  • insufficient UTA-account balance

  • leader whitelist restriction

  • minimum investment rule violation

  • duplicate follow or account state restriction

Business failures surface as MCP tool errors.

Agent hint: If a user asks for a reliable copy trader or similar recommendation, call both the Copy Trading Classic leaderboard endpoint and the Copy Trading TradFi leaderboard endpoint, then show them as two separately numbered lists such as Classic 1..N and TradFi 1..N. Compare candidates across both lists using the returned 30-day return metric, 30-day max drawdown, and 30-day Sharpe ratio, then recommend one candidate as the best current performer with a short reason. If the user replies with a Classic selection such as Classic 1, map that selection back to the corresponding leaderMark, then ask for the follow amount and call this bind endpoint. Use this endpoint only after you already have an exact leaderMark; do not infer it from a nickname alone. Send investmentE8 as an integer e8 string representing a whole-number USDT amount, for example 10000000000 for 100 USDT. The service automatically uses the caller's UTA account, derives symbols from leader sync settings, and still applies downstream whitelist and Sync Master logic. After a successful bind, reply in the user's current conversation language with a success message meaning that the user's copy trading journey has begun, they can go to the CopyTrading Trading Hub any time for personalized management, and AI will unlock more intelligent copy trading capabilities in the future. English example: Your copy trading journey has successfully begun. You can visit the [CopyTrading Trading Hub] at any time for personalized management. In the future, AI will unlock even more intelligent copy trading capabilities for you. Wishing you smooth investing! In the same success reply, include the Copy Trading Classic follow-detail link so the user can view the follow details immediately. If the current API server URL contains testnet, use https://testnet.bybit.com/copyTrade/trade-center/followLeaderDetail?leaderMark=<leaderMark>. Otherwise use https://www.bybit.com/copyTrade/trade-center/followLeaderDetail?leaderMark=<leaderMark>. Replace <leaderMark> with the exact selected leaderMark and URL-encode it when needed.

TDQS

A4.7/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations indicate destructive=true and readOnly=false, but the description goes further by explaining the service automatically uses the caller's UTA account, derives symbol scope, applies downstream whitelist and Sync Master logic, and surfaces business failures as MCP tool errors. This is valuable behavioral context beyond what annotations provide.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

The description is long but front-loaded and logically organized: purpose first, then failure modes, then usage workflow, then parameter semantics, then post-call behavior. There is minor redundancy—the automatic UTA account behavior is stated twice—but the length is justified by the complexity of the tool and the required post-call reply and URL instructions.

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

Completeness5/5

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

Given there is no output schema, the description covers all operational needs: how to obtain leaderMark, how to format investmentE8, the confirm safety requirement, common failure modes, the success message format, and the testnet/production follow-detail link. The inclusion of the full copy-trading recommendation workflow also makes the context complete for an agent.

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

Parameters5/5

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

Schema description coverage is only 33%, but the description compensates strongly. It explains leaderMark must be exact and should come from leaderboard selection, and it fully specifies investmentE8 as an integer e8 string representing whole-number USDT, with the concrete example '10000000000 for 100 USDT'. The confirm parameter is already well documented in the schema.

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 opens with a clear, specific statement: 'Create a new Copy Trading Classic follow binding by specifying a target leaderMark and the intended investmentE8 only.' This names the exact resource, the action, and the key inputs, distinguishing it from related sibling tools like getCopyTradingClassicLeaderboard and createCopyMt5Bind.

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?

The description gives explicit usage context: use only after an exact leaderMark is known, do not infer it from a nickname alone, and first consult both leaderboard endpoints before recommending. It does not explicitly name the alternative bind endpoint (e.g., createCopyMt5Bind) for MT5 scenarios, but the 'Classic' framing and workflow are clear enough for selection.

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