validate_uid

Validate a Swiss UID by verifying its existence in the official commercial register. Use this tool to check company identifier authenticity.

Instructions

Validate a Swiss UID (Unternehmens-Identifikationsnummer) using the UID Webservice. Checks if the UID exists in the official register.

Input Schema

Behavior2/5

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

No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. It mentions using a webservice and existence check but does not disclose error handling, rate limits, or response behavior. Minimal behavioral disclosure.

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, front-loaded with verb, no unnecessary words. Efficient and clearly structured.

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

Completeness4/5

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

For a simple one-parameter tool without output schema, the description covers the essential action. However, it omits details about what happens on invalid UID or service errors, leaving slight gaps for an agent.

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?

Schema coverage is 100% with a clear parameter description (format CHE-XXX.XXX.XXX). The description adds no new parameter-specific meaning beyond what schema already provides, so baseline 3 is appropriate.

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 the tool validates a Swiss UID and checks existence in the official register. It is distinct from sibling tools like get_company_by_uid which retrieve details rather than validate.

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?

The description implies usage for validation but provides no explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like get_company_by_uid or search_companies. No when-not-to-use or context is given.

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