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

No annotations exist, and the description fails to disclose any behavioral traits such as side effects, authentication needs, rate limits, or data freshness. For a tool with numerous data sources, this is a critical omission, leaving the agent blind to important operational constraints.

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 structured with headers and bullet points, but it is verbose, listing many methods with Chinese text. It front-loads a summary but then dives into an extensive list. Some sentences are redundant or unclear, detracting from efficient parsing by an AI agent.

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?

Given the tool's complexity (many methods, 8 parameters, no schema descriptions, no annotations), the description is woefully incomplete. It does not explain common parameter usage, the role of 'params_json', or how to interpret results. An output schema exists but is not provided; its absence further harms completeness. The agent cannot reliably invoke this 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 0% description coverage for its 8 parameters. The description shows example calls with parameters (e.g., crypto_bitcoin_cme(date='20230830')) but does not explain parameter meaning, format, or valid values across methods. The 'params_json' parameter is unexplained, adding confusion. The agent cannot determine how to properly set parameters without external knowledge.

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 clearly states that the tool provides forex and commodity data, and it lists many specific methods. This distinguishes it from sibling tools (e.g., akshare_bond, akshare_stock_a) that cover other asset classes. However, it lacks a concise verb+resource summary, relying on a broad listing.

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?

No explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. The description does not mention prerequisites, use cases, or when not to use it. The agent must infer from the method names and siblings, which is insufficient for confident selection.

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