Read-onlyIdempotent

"What's new with X" / "latest on Y" / "what happened to Z this week / month / quarter" / "updates on Acme" / "news on Tesla recently" / "what's happening with Apple" — change feed for a company in the last N days/weeks/months in ONE parallel call. Fans out to SEC EDGAR (filings since since), GDELT→GNews fallback (news mentions in window — GDELT preferred, GNews when rate-limited or 5xx), USPTO (patents granted; PatentsView API sunset May 2025 so this soft-fails until reactivated). since accepts ISO date ("2026-04-01") or relative shorthand ("7d", "30d", "3m", "1y"). Returns structured changes[] grouped by source + total_changes count + pipeworx:// citation URIs. Use entity_profile instead when you want the static profile (filings + fundamentals + LEI + patents) regardless of window.

A4.7/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Discloses fan-out behavior to multiple sources, fallback logic for GDELT->GNews, soft-fail for USPTO, and return format with grouped changes and citation URIs, going beyond annotations.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Dense but efficient single paragraph front-loads purpose and examples; all sentences contribute value, though could be slightly restructured for easier scanning.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Comprehensive for a complex tool without output schema; covers multiple data sources, error handling, and return structure, leaving no major gaps.

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 descriptions are clear; description adds examples of relative shorthand for 'since' and explains sources, enhancing understanding beyond schema alone.

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?

Description clearly states it provides a change feed for a company over a specified window, aggregating from multiple sources. Distinguishes from sibling tool 'entity_profile' by specifying when to use each.

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

Usage Guidelines5/5

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

Explicitly provides example queries showing when to use, and directs to 'entity_profile' for static profile, clarifying when NOT to use this tool.

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

TDQS

A3.5/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

The Airtable tools are distinct, but the set is dominated by a large Pipeworx research family with multiple near-identical entries (ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, ask_pipeworx_grounded) and several overlapping prediction-market tools (bet_research, polymarket_edges, polymarket_arbitrage). An agent would frequently struggle to pick the right tool among the many data-lookup and research options, especially given the server is supposedly named Airtable.

Naming Consistency2/5

Naming conventions are mixed: some tools use verb_noun snake_case (airtable_create_record, list_subscriptions, resolve_entity), while others use domain-prefixed names (pipeworx_feedback, polymarket_edges) or bare verbs (remember, forget, recall, subscribe). There is no single predictable pattern across the set.

Tool Count2/5

36 tools is heavy for any single server's scope, and the mismatch is worse because the server is named Airtable yet only 5 of 36 tools relate to Airtable. The rest form an unrelated Pipeworx/Polymarket/memory grab-bag, suggesting poor scoping and no clear purpose for the set as a whole.

Completeness2/5

For the stated Airtable domain, the surface is incomplete: records can be created, fetched, and listed, but there is no update_record or delete_record. For the broader Pipeworx/prediction-market domain the coverage is extensive but unfocused, and given the server's name the Airtable gap is glaring.
