"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 multi-source fan-out behavior, fallback chain (GDELT→GNews), and soft-fail for USPTO (PatentsView API sunset). Annotations already mark readOnly and idempotent, so description adds significant behavioral context without contradiction.

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?

Single paragraph packs a lot of information (use cases, sources, fallback, parameter hints, return structure, sibling reference). Could be slightly more structured (e.g., bullet points), but remains efficient and front-loaded.

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?

Covers input examples, fallback logic, and return structure (grouped changes, total count, citation URIs). No output schema exists, so the description provides adequate high-level completeness for a complex multi-source tool.

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 description coverage is 100%. Description adds useful examples for 'since' (ISO date vs. relative shorthand) and recommends '30d'. For 'value', clarifies Ticker or zero-padded CIK. Adds small but helpful guidance beyond schema definitions.

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 the tool's purpose as a change feed for a company, with explicit examples ('What's new with X', 'latest on Y') and a specific scope (SEC EDGAR, GDELT/GNews, USPTO). It also distinguishes from sibling tool entity_profile for static profiles.

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?

Provides explicit guidance on when to use (e.g., 'What's new with X') and when not to ('Use entity_profile instead when you want the static profile...'). Includes example queries and recommended since values like '30d' or '1m'.

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 distinct purposes; however, 'ask_pipeworx' and 'ask_pipeworx_grounded' are very similar, and 'polymarket_edges' vs 'polymarket_edge_tracker' could cause confusion. The real estate tools (altos_active_listings, altos_new_listings, altos_pending_sales) are clearly differentiated by status.

Naming Consistency4/5

Tool names use snake_case and are descriptive, but prefixes vary (altos_, polymarket_, ask_pipeworx, etc.) and patterns like 'entity_profile' or 'generate_llms_txt' don't follow strict verb_noun. Overall, naming is fairly consistent and readable.

Tool Count3/5

36 tools is high but justifiable given the broad scope (real estate, prediction markets, SEC/FDA data, etc.). Some utility tools (list_subscriptions, pipeworx_feedback) could be integrated, but the count is borderline heavy for a single server.

Completeness4/5

The server covers multiple domains thoroughly with tools for real estate, company profiles, prediction markets, and general data queries. Minor gaps exist (e.g., no dedicated tool for FDA drug details beyond ask_pipeworx), but meta-tools like deep_research fill many needs.
