createRfq

Destructive

Create a request for quote to solicit pricing from selected counterparties by defining one or more instrument legs and counterparty list, enabling competitive quotes before trading.

Instructions

Create a new Request for Quote (RFQ) to solicit pricing from selected counterparties. The inquirer specifies one or more legs (instruments) and a list of counterparties to receive the RFQ. Each leg defines a product category, symbol, direction, and quantity.

Rate Limit: 50 requests per second.

Tip: Use the Get RFQ Config endpoint to retrieve available counterparties, strategy types, and maximum leg count before creating an RFQ.

Agent hint: Use this endpoint to create a new RFQ. You must first call Get RFQ Config to obtain valid counterparty deskCodes and the maximum number of legs allowed. All legs must share the same base and settlement coins.

TDQS

A3.9/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already convey readOnly=false and destructive=true; the description adds a concrete rate limit (50 requests per second), a mandatory configuration prerequisite, and the constraint that all legs share base and settlement coins. These are useful behavioral details, and nothing in the description contradicts the annotations.

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 important purpose, rate limit, and prerequisite are front-loaded and formatted with bold labels. There is minor redundancy between the opening sentence and the 'Agent hint: Use this endpoint to create a new RFQ' sentence, but overall it is compact.

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 destructive write with no output schema, the description provides the prerequisites, rate limit, leg constraints, and counterparty requirements needed to invoke it correctly. It does not describe the response or post-creation workflow, but the confirm semantics are covered in the schema, so the remaining gap is not critical.

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

Parameters3/5

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

With only 17% schema description coverage, the description compensates by explaining the list structure (category, symbol, side, qty) and counterparties. However, optional parameters like anonymous and rfqLinkId are not explained, and qty's formatting is left to schema, so the compensation is incomplete.

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

Purpose4/5

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

The description opens with 'Create a new Request for Quote (RFQ) to solicit pricing from selected counterparties,' giving a specific verb, resource, and intent, and then defines legs and counterparties. It is clear enough to separate from getRfqConfig and cancelRfq, but it does not explicitly contrast with the sibling createQuote, so sibling differentiation is only implicit.

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 explicitly requires calling Get RFQ Config first to obtain valid counterparty deskCodes, strategy types, and max leg count, which is an actionable precondition. It does not state when to use alternatives such as createQuote instead, so it falls short of full when/when-not guidance.

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