createDCABot

Destructive

Create an automated DCA bot to invest in multiple trading pairs at a fixed interval. Specify frequency, quote coin, and per-pair amounts to receive a bot ID for immediate use.

Instructions

Creates a DCA bot that automatically invests at regular intervals. Specify investment frequency (in seconds), quote coin, trading pairs with individual amounts, and optional max investment amount.

Prerequisites:

  • User must be authenticated and pass KYC/compliance checks.

  • Trading pairs must be valid and not duplicated.

  • Minimum frequency is 10 seconds.

  • Maximum 5 trading pairs per bot.

Returns bot_id on success. If the user is banned (status_code=421), ban_reason_text provides a localized explanation.

Rate limit: 3 qps per UID.

Agent hint: The parameters.frequency_in_second field controls how often the bot invests. Common values: 600 (10 min), 3600 (1 hour), 86400 (1 day). Each pair in parameters.pairs specifies a base coin and its per-round investment amount.

TDQS

A4.7/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations convey that this is a write operation with destructive potential, but the description adds substantial behavioral context beyond that: authentication/KYC requirements, return of bot_id, the banned-user status_code=421 behavior, and the 3 qps rate limit. It clearly explains what the tool does and what the agent can expect on success or failure.

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?

The description is well-structured and dense: a one-sentence purpose, a concise prerequisites list, then return/error/rate-limit details, and finally a useful agent hint. Every section earns its place and the most important information is front-loaded. No redundant filler or vague prose.

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 the complexity of nested parameters and the absence of an output schema, the description provides the essential operational details: what the bot does, prerequisites, constraints, return value, a key error case, and rate limiting. An agent has enough context to invoke the tool correctly and understand the outcome, especially when combined with the confirm parameter's schema description.

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?

Schema description coverage is only 25%, so the description must compensate for the undocumented nested parameters. It names the core fields (frequency, quote coin, pairs, max investment amount) and the agent hint adds practical meaning: common frequency values, that pairs contain base coin and per-round amount. It does not fully explain every optional field like channel or toolsDiscoveryParameter, so it is helpful but not exhaustive.

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 a specific action and resource: 'Creates a DCA bot that automatically invests at regular intervals.' This distinguishes it from the many sibling bot creators by naming the DCA strategy and its core behavior. The key inputs are listed up front, making the tool's function immediately understandable.

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 strong contextual guidance: authentication/KYC prerequisites, pair validity rules, minimum frequency, maximum pairs, and a rate limit. However, it does not explicitly name alternatives or state when not to use this tool versus other bot-creation tools like createGridBot or createComboBot, so it stops short of full exclusion guidance.

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