placeTokenOrder

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

Discloses rate limit, idempotency via orderLinkId, and suggests using Get Order endpoint for tracking. The agent hint warns about the real token subscription. No annotations are provided, but the description carries the burden well, though it does not describe the response format or potential errors.

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

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

The description is well-structured with bullet points and bold headings. It is concise yet comprehensive, with no wasted sentences. The agent hint is prominently placed.

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

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

Given the complexity of token minting/redemption and the lack of output schema, the description covers the core functionality, idempotency, rate limit, and a safety confirmation. It could explain the post-order flow more, but overall it's sufficiently complete for an agent to use.

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

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

With 0% schema description coverage, the description explains the purpose of orderType, accountType (FlexibleSaving/UNIFIED), and orderLinkId (idempotency). It implicitly covers coin and amount, but lacks format details for amount. Adds significant value over the bare schema.

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

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

The description clearly states it places a Mint or Redeem order for BYUSDT Token, with specific explanations of each operation. It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like createOrder by focusing on token minting/redemption.

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

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

Provides clear guidance on when to use Mint vs Redeem, and includes an important agent hint about requiring user confirmation. However, it lacks explicit comparison to alternative tools like placeEarnOrder or createOrder, which would help in deciding when to use this tool over others.

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