Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
spotMarginModeYes
Behavior2/5

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

The description provides rate limit info but lacks details on side effects, prerequisites, or what happens if the mode is already set. No annotations exist to supplement, so more transparency is needed.

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?

One sentence, no filler, includes rate limit info efficiently. Every word earns its place.

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

Completeness3/5

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

For a simple one-parameter tool, the description covers the main action and rate limit. However, it lacks explanation of parameter values, prerequisites, and potential errors, reducing completeness.

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 single required parameter 'spotMarginMode' has enum values '0' and '1' in the schema, but the description does not explain which value corresponds to enable or disable. With 0% schema description coverage, the description fails to add necessary meaning.

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 clearly states the verb 'Enable or disable' and the resource 'spot cross margin trading mode', which distinguishes it from siblings like setMarginMode. However, it could be more explicit about the context (e.g., that it toggles a specific mode).

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?

No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as setMarginMode or spotMarginSetLeverage. There are no when-to-use or when-not-to-use indications.

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