TDQS

A4.4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Without annotations, the description explains return format, exception handling (ValueError for missing API key or failed request), and rate limits (max 10 pages). This provides solid transparency, though some behavioral details like idempotency are not mentioned.

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?

The description is concise and well-structured, with a clear first sentence stating the purpose, followed by parameter details, return type, and exceptions. Every sentence serves a 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 tool with two optional parameters and no output schema, the description covers all necessary aspects: purpose, parameters, return value, and error handling. No gaps are evident.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters5/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Despite 0% schema coverage, the description fully explains both parameters: 'kind' with valid options (news/media) and 'num_pages' with default and maximum. This adds significant value beyond the schema's minimal information.

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 fetches cryptocurrency news from CryptoPanic. It specifies the verb 'fetch', the resource 'cryptocurrency news', and the source, leaving no ambiguity.

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?

No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives is provided. Since no sibling tools exist, the inference is that it is the only news-fetching tool, but explicit context is missing.

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

TDQS

A4.1/5.0
Disambiguation5/5

Only one tool exists, so there is no ambiguity. The single tool has a clear purpose.

Naming Consistency5/5

With only one tool, naming is self-consistent and follows a verb_noun pattern.

Tool Count2/5

A single tool for a cryptocurrency news server is too few, lacking coverage for related operations like filtering by currency or fetching full articles.

Completeness2/5

The tool only fetches news titles as a concatenated string, missing functionalities like detailed article retrieval, search, or category-based filtering, making it severely incomplete.
