"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.

A4.8/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, and destructiveHint. Description adds valuable behavioral context: fallback logic (GDELT→GNews), soft-fail for USPTO, parallel execution, and return format (changes[] grouped by source + citations). No contradictions with annotations.

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?

Single paragraph with zero wasted words. Purpose and usage examples front-loaded. Every sentence earns its place, covering query patterns, data sources, parameter formats, and sibling differentiation.

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?

Despite no output schema, the description clearly states the return structure (changes[] grouped by source + total_changes count + citation URIs). The tool's complexity (3 parameters, multiple data sources) is fully addressed. No gaps remain for agent decision-making.

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

Parameters5/5

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

Schema coverage is 100%. Description enriches each parameter: explains that 'since' accepts ISO date or relative shorthand with examples, clarifies 'value' can be ticker or zero-padded CIK, and notes 'type' only supports 'company'.

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 uses specific verbs and resources: "change feed for a company," lists data sources (SEC EDGAR, GDELT→GNews, USPTO), and provides example queries. It clearly distinguishes from sibling entity_profile by advising 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 states when to use this tool ("What's new with X", "latest on Y") and when not to ("Use entity_profile instead for static profile"). Provides context for typical monitoring with 'since' and mentions the one-call parallel nature.

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

A3.9/5.0
Disambiguation3/5

Tools like ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_grounded, and deep_research serve similar querying purposes, and there is overlap among prediction market tools (e.g., polymarket_arbitrage, polymarket_edges). However, descriptions help differentiate them, so agents can usually select the correct one.

Naming Consistency3/5

Most tools use snake_case with verbs (ask_, resolve_, validate_), but there are noun-style exceptions (entity_profile, recent_changes, pipeworx_trending) and mixed naming among Polymarket tools. The pattern is readable but not fully consistent.

Tool Count2/5

With 32 tools, the server feels bloated, especially given the name 'Cdc' implies a focus on CDC data, yet many tools cover unrelated domains like prediction markets and company profiles. Several tools could be consolidated or removed to align with a narrower scope.

Completeness3/5

The CDC domain is thinly covered with only search and get for datasets, lacking upload or advanced filtering. Company financials are limited to basic fundamentals from 10-Ks. Prediction markets are well-covered with arbitrage, edges, and fill risk. The server has notable gaps in its core domain.
