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

No annotations are provided, and the description offers minimal behavioral insight beyond a read hint. It does not disclose any side effects, authorization needs, or other behavioral traits expected for a complete tool definition.

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?

The description is extremely short but not efficiently informative. It uses cryptic notation and Chinese that may not be universally understood. While concise, it fails to convey the tool's purpose or value.

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?

The tool has no output schema, so the description must explain return values or behavior. It does not. Given the large set of sibling tools and the likely complexity of the API, this description is severely incomplete, leaving the agent without enough context to use the tool correctly.

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?

The input schema has no parameters, and schema description coverage is 100% (vacuously). According to guidelines, baseline is 3 because no parameter information is needed. However, the description does not add context beyond the schema.

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 does not state what the tool does; it only contains a cryptic label ('[L:READ] CAT:[账户]') and an instruction to call another tool first. The purpose is not clear from the description alone.

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?

The description advises to call 'agent_catalog' first, which is a prerequisite, but does not specify when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'okx_get_convert_currency_pair' or 'okx_get_convert_estimate_quote'. There is no guidance on context or exclusions.

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