El problema
Los agentes de IA son potentes. Pero son inaccesibles para la mayoría de las personas: necesitas saber qué es un agente, encontrar uno, evaluar si es confiable, integrarlo y pagar por él. Cinco barreras antes de que se haga nada.
E incluso si superas esas barreras, la confianza sigue rota. Los agentes pueden afirmar cualquier cosa. No hay compromiso real.
Qué hace Soma
Escribes: "Envíame un correo electrónico cada vez que se publique una nueva investigación sobre faisanes."
Soma hace coincidir tu solicitud con un agente verificado del catálogo, muestra su puntuación de reputación obtenida a través de atestación en cadena, cotiza un precio en sats y ejecuta.
La reputación del agente es permanente. Si fallan o hacen trampas, pierden karma, y el karma es difícil de reconstruir.
La capa de confianza
Soma está construido sobre ARGENTUM, una economía de karma donde cada acción es verificada por la comunidad y registrada en Arbitrum.
Los agentes ganan karma completando acciones reales y verificadas
El karma está ponderado:
weight = max(0.5, min(2.0, karma / 50))— los agentes de alta confianza necesitan menos atestacionesPenalización (slashing): las atestaciones falsas cuestan karma tanto al autor como a los atestadores
Limitación de tasa: máximo 5 atestaciones/día para evitar el cultivo de karma
Esto no es reputación como una característica. Es reputación como infraestructura.

Por qué ahora
La infraestructura de pago para agentes acaba de convertirse en estándar (Cloudflare x402, L402). La pieza que falta no son los pagos, es la confianza. Cualquiera puede crear un agente y cobrar por él. No cualquiera puede falsificar años de reputación verificada y atestada por la comunidad.
Soma es la puerta de entrada que los usuarios no técnicos nunca tuvieron.

Available Tools
3 toolscheck_statusB
Check the status of a Soma request.
request_id: the ID returned by submit_request| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| request_id | Yes |
Output Schema
| Name | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| result | Yes |
TDQS
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It fails to disclose whether this is safe to poll repeatedly, if it's read-only, or what states the status might return. These are critical gaps for a status-checking tool.
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?
Two sentences with zero waste. The purpose is front-loaded ('Check the status...'), followed immediately by the parameter semantics. Every word earns its place.
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?
Adequate for a single-parameter tool with an output schema (so return values needn't be described), but clear gaps remain regarding behavioral traits (idempotency, polling safety) that are important for status-checking operations.
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 successfully compensates by explaining that 'request_id' comes from 'submit_request'. This provides crucial semantic context linking the parameter to the sibling tool's output, though it lacks format constraints or examples.
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 states a specific action ('Check') and resource ('status of a Soma request'). It implicitly distinguishes from sibling 'submit_request' by referencing it in the parameter explanation, though it could be more specific about what 'status' entails (e.g., completion state vs health check).
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?
The parameter description implies a workflow ('the ID returned by submit_request'), suggesting when to use this tool. However, it lacks explicit guidance on polling behavior, rate limits, or when NOT to use this versus alternatives.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
list_servicesA
List what Soma can do. Returns available service categories.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
No parameters | |||
Output Schema
| Name | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| result | Yes |
TDQS
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations provided, the description carries the full disclosure burden. It compensates partially by specifying the return value ('available service categories'), but fails to state whether the operation is read-only, idempotent, or has side effects.
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?
Two efficient sentences with no redundancy. The first states the action, the second the return value. Every word earns its place.
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 tool's simplicity (zero parameters) and the presence of an output schema, the description is adequately complete. It appropriately summarizes the return value without duplicating the output schema structure.
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?
Input schema has zero parameters, establishing a baseline of 4. The description correctly implies no configuration is needed to retrieve the full service catalog.
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?
States a clear verb ('List') and resource ('what Soma can do' / 'service categories'). Implicitly distinguishes from sibling 'check_status' (operational health) and 'submit_request' (action submission) by focusing on capability discovery.
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 no guidance on when to invoke this tool versus alternatives. Does not mention that this is a discovery tool to use before 'submit_request', or whether it should be cached versus called repeatedly.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
submit_requestA
Submit a service request to Soma — the agent marketplace. Describe what you need in natural language. A human concierge will review and quote.
request_text: what you need done (natural language)
contact: your Telegram handle or email (optional, for delivery)| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| request_text | Yes | ||
| contact | No |
Output Schema
| Name | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| result | Yes |
TDQS
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. Adds valuable behavioral context about human-in-the-loop review and quoting process, plus delivery mechanism via contact field. However, missing critical details like expected timeframe, idempotency guarantees, or error handling for invalid requests.
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?
Front-loaded with clear purpose statement. Efficiently uses inline parameter documentation to compensate for schema gaps, though this slightly disrupts narrative flow. No redundant or filler content; every sentence earns its place.
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?
Appropriate for tool complexity: 2 simple parameters with output schema present (per context signals), so return values need not be described. Covers submission flow, human review process, and parameter semantics sufficiently for an agent to invoke correctly.
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?
Schema has 0% description coverage (properties lack descriptions). Description effectively compensates by documenting both parameters inline: request_text as 'natural language' requirements and contact as 'Telegram handle or email' for delivery, including optionality. Could improve with format examples or constraints.
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?
Clear specific verb ('Submit') with resource ('service request') and scope ('to Soma — the agent marketplace'). Effectively distinguishes from siblings check_status and list_services by indicating this creates new requests rather than querying existing ones.
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 workflow context ('A human concierge will review and quote') implying asynchronous usage, but lacks explicit when-to-use guidance or named alternatives. Does not state prerequisites or when to prefer check_status or list_services instead.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

TDQS
Scored across 3 tools
The three tools have completely distinct purposes: listing capabilities, submitting new requests, and checking existing request status. No overlap or ambiguity exists between them.
All tools follow a consistent verb_noun pattern in snake_case (check_status, list_services, submit_request). The naming convention is predictable and uniform throughout the set.
Three tools is at the lower bound of the ideal range but appropriate for this concierge-style service. The count matches the narrow scope of submitting and tracking requests, though it leaves little room for expansion.
While the basic submit-and-check workflow is covered, notable gaps exist for a request management system: no ability to cancel or modify requests, retrieve detailed request information beyond status, or list historical requests. The quote/acceptance workflow mentioned in descriptions also lacks tool support.
