Trading Sessions

trading_session
Read-onlyIdempotent

Retrieve trading session schedules for all markets, including session types and start/end times.

Instructions

Get trading session schedule for all markets. Returns market_sessions[]{market, trade_sessions[]{beg_time, end_time, trade_session_type}}.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
_jqNoOptional jq filter (jaq syntax) applied to this tool's JSON response before it is returned; it never changes the upstream request. One output is returned as-is, several as a JSON array, none as []. Module imports and the `env`/`debug`/`stderr` builtins are unavailable. Example: .data | map({symbol}). Omit for the full response.

A3.8/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, and destructiveHint=false, so safety is covered. The description adds the response structure (market_sessions and trade_sessions with fields), which is useful and goes beyond the annotations. No contradictions.

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?

A single, focused sentence that states the purpose and the return format without wasted words. The key information is front-loaded, making it easy for an agent to parse quickly.

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?

With no output schema, the description correctly carries the return format burden. It provides enough detail for an agent to understand what the tool returns. Minor gaps like handling of empty sessions or market availability are not critical for a read-only, idempotent tool.

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?

The only parameter is _jq, which is fully described in the schema (100% coverage). The description does not need to repeat it, and the baseline of 3 is appropriate because the schema handles parameter semantics adequately.

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's action ('Get trading session schedule'), the resource ('all markets'), and the return shape. It is distinct from siblings like market_status (likely real-time status) and trading_days (trading calendar) by explicitly focusing on session schedules.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

No explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as market_status or trading_days. The scope 'all markets' is mentioned, but there is no discussion of use cases, exclusions, or why this tool is preferred over similar siblings.

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