Read-only

Check credit balance, billed messages, and estimated spend. Prevent send failures from insufficient credits by verifying usage before mass campaigns.

Instructions

Devuelve el saldo de créditos, los mensajes facturados del periodo y el gasto estimado. Un crédito equivale a un mensaje. Consúltalo antes de un envío masivo: sin saldo suficiente los envíos quedan en failed con insufficient_credits.

Behavior5/5

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

Annotations (readOnlyHint: true) correctly indicate it's a read-only operation. The description adds the warning about consequences of insufficient credits, enhancing transparency beyond annotations.

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?

Two sentences with high density: first states what it returns, second gives usage guidance. No unnecessary words.

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 it's a simple read-only tool with no parameters and no output schema, the description fully explains its purpose and key behavior. Nothing missing.

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?

No parameters exist, and schema coverage is 100% (trivially). Description adds no parameter info, but baseline is 4 for zero-parameter tools.

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 it returns balance, billed messages, and estimated spend. It distinguishes itself from sibling tools by focusing on usage/balance info, which no other sibling does.

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?

Explicitly advises to query before mass sending to avoid failures due to insufficient credits. Provides a concrete use case but doesn't cover when not to use or alternatives.

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