agentpad_buy

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

No annotations exist, but the description carries real weight: it discloses that the tool only returns unsigned calls plus a wallet_sendCalls batch (no signing), that identity and pass mints may be inserted before the buy, the ~$0.01 Base gas estimate, and an 'unaudited' risk warning. It stops short of stating irreversible on-chain effects or failure behavior if a prerequisite fails.

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?

Everything is packed into one front-loaded sentence with the core action first, then the flow, then cost and risk. Dense but zero filler; the arrow notation is readable and the caveats are correctly placed at the end.

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?

For a six-parameter orchestration tool with no annotations and no output schema, the description explains the sequencing, the artifact returned (ordered unsigned calls plus batch), the chain, and the risk posture. The main remaining gaps are return shape details and the meaning of referrer/slippagePct.

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?

At 67% schema description coverage, the schema already documents wallet, eth, token, and agentId; the description only restates the token default (APBUILD). referrer and slippagePct remain undocumented in both places, so the description does not compensate for the coverage gap.

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 verb and resource ("buy an AgentPad token on its bonding curve") and describes the exact orchestration it performs (prerequisite checks, ordered unsigned calls, EIP-5792 batch). It never names the overlapping siblings build_buy_tx or onboard_and_buy, so an agent must infer the difference rather than being told.

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?

"ONE tool" and the description of the full mint-then-buy flow imply this is the one-shot path, but there are no explicit 'use this when / use X instead' statements. With build_buy_tx, onboard_and_buy, and quote_buy all plausibly relevant, the routing decision is left to inference.

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