Decision Pack

decision.get
Read-onlyIdempotent

Build a deterministic decision pack for energy, metals, ags, or all sectors. Returns method, signals with direction/rationale, an embedded snapshot, and a disclaimer — no ML model, rule-based only.

sectorsNoPresent when sector=all
signalsNoDirectional signals with rationale
snapshotNo
disclaimerNoNon-advice / methodology disclaimer

A4.1/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare read-only and idempotent, and the description adds key behavioral context: 'no ML model, rule-based only' and lists return fields. 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 sentence that efficiently covers purpose, scope, returns, and a key attribute. No wasted words.

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?

Given the simple input (1 param with enum) and presence of output schema, the description fully covers necessary context. No gaps identified.

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?

Schema coverage is 100% and the description effectively repeats the enum values. No additional meaning is added beyond what the schema provides, so baseline score of 3 is appropriate.

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 it builds a deterministic decision pack for specific sectors (energy, metals, ags, all), mentions return components, and distinguishes itself from sibling data retrieval tools by being a rule-based pack generation tool.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

While the purpose is clear, the description does not provide explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives or when not to use it. Usage is implied by the tool's nature.

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

A4.2/5.0
Disambiguation5/5

Each tool has a distinct purpose: calendar.get for release dates, catalog.list for instrument discovery, price.latest and price.history for prices, inventory.get for inventory, positioning.get for CFTC data, fundamentals.get for reports, fx.latest for FX rates, snapshot.get for sector overview, spread.get for derived spreads, and decision.get for deterministic decisions. No overlapping functionality.

Naming Consistency5/5

All tools follow a consistent noun.verb pattern (e.g., calendar.get, catalog.list, price.latest, snapshot.get). The naming is predictable and makes the tool's purpose clear at a glance.

Tool Count5/5

With 11 tools, the server is well-scoped for a commodity data platform. Each tool covers a distinct aspect (calendar, catalog, prices, inventory, positioning, fundamentals, FX, snapshots, spreads, decisions) without unnecessary bloat.

Completeness4/5

The tool set covers core commodity data needs: price discovery (catalog, latest, history), fundamentals (WASDE, etc.), inventory (EIA), positioning (CFTC), spreads, FX conversion, and summaries. Minor gaps include limited price history (500 points) and no explicit support for options or shipping data, but the overall surface is strong.
