Read-onlyIdempotent

Retrieve a value previously saved via remember, or list all saved keys (omit the key argument). Use to look up context the agent stored earlier — the user's target ticker, an address, prior research notes — without re-deriving it from scratch. Scoped to your identifier (anonymous IP, BYO key hash, or account ID). Pair with remember to save, forget to delete.

A4.5/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Beyond annotations (read-only, idempotent, not destructive), describes scoping by identifier and behavior when argument is omitted. No contradiction.

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?

Two sentences pack main action, usage, examples, scope, and pairing. Front-loaded and no fluff.

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 read-only tool with one optional parameter and no output schema, the description fully covers behavior, usage, and scope.

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

Parameters4/5

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

Schema covers 'key' fully (100%), description adds usage nuance: omit to list all keys. Adds value beyond schema.

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?

Clearly states the tool retrieves or lists saved values via 'remember', with specific examples (ticker, address, research notes). Distinguishes from siblings 'remember' and 'forget'.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

Explains when to use (look up prior context without re-deriving) and mentions pairing with related tools. Could add explicit 'when not to use'.

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

A4/5.0
Disambiguation4/5

Most tools have clearly distinct purposes, especially the core ones like get_paper, search_papers, and entity_profile. However, some pairs like ask_pipeworx and ask_pipeworx_grounded, or the polymarket tools, could cause momentary confusion, though descriptions help differentiate.

Naming Consistency2/5

Naming patterns are inconsistent: tools use verb_noun (e.g., get_paper), noun_phrase (e.g., polymarket_arbitrage), and bare verbs (e.g., forget, recall). There is no unifying pattern, and styles like 'pipeworx_feedback' vs 'search_papers' further add to the inconsistency.

Tool Count3/5

With 34 tools, the set covers a broad range of domains (academic papers, company data, prediction markets, memory, subscriptions). While the scope justifies the number, it feels slightly heavy and could benefit from consolidation or clearer grouping.

Completeness4/5

The tool set covers major functionalities for research, data retrieval, and monitoring, with only minor gaps (e.g., limited to US public companies, npm-only dependency scanning). Overall, the surface is comprehensive for the stated capabilities.
