getHistoricalIndexFullChart

Read-onlyIdempotent

Retrieve comprehensive historical end-of-day data for stock indexes including open, high, low, close, and volume for detailed financial analysis over a specified date range.

Instructions

Access full historical end-of-day prices for stock indexes using the Detailed Historical Price Data API. This API provides comprehensive information, including open, high, low, close prices, volume, and additional metrics for detailed financial analysis.

Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already indicate readOnly, idempotent, openWorld. Description adds that it provides comprehensive OHLCV and metrics, but no extra behavioral traits like API limits or data freshness.

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 succinct sentences with no redundant words; front-loaded with purpose.

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?

For a simple read-only tool with no output schema, description adequately explains return values (OHLCV plus metrics) and covers all needed context.

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?

All 3 parameters have schema descriptions; description doesn't add new information about parameters beyond what schema already provides.

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?

Description specifies verb 'Access', resource 'full historical end-of-day prices for stock indexes', and distinguishes from siblings like getHistoricalIndexLightChart by using 'full'.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

Description does not provide guidance on when to use this tool vs alternatives (e.g., getHistoricalIndexLightChart) or when not to use it.

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