Entity Profile

Read-onlyIdempotent

"Tell me about X" / "research Acme" / "brief me on Tesla" / "what does Apple do" / "company profile for Microsoft" / "give me the rundown on NVDA" / "everything you know about $TICKER" — full cross-source profile of a US public company in ONE parallel call. ALWAYS PREFER over chaining single-pack SEC/XBRL/news lookups when the user asks for a holistic view. Fans out across SEC EDGAR, XBRL, USPTO patents, federal contracts (USAspending), FDA-licensed biologics (Purple Book), H-1B hiring (DOL LCA), news and GLEIF, and returns: cik + company_name (+ resolved_from/resolved_to when value was a name); recent_filings (up to 5 with pipeworx://edgar/company/{cik}/filings/{accession} URIs); fundamentals (LATEST 10-K Revenues + NetIncomeLoss + Cash, sorted period_end DESC); patents (USPTO PatentsView API sunset May 2025 — soft-fails until reactivated); federal_contracts (USAspending awards where the company is the recipient); fda_products (FDA-licensed biologics — vaccines, cell/gene therapies — from the Purple Book; a company with only small-molecule/generic drugs will show none here, that is expected, not a failure); hiring (H-1B sponsorship volume + salary range from DOL LCA filings); recent news mentions via GDELT→GNews fallback; LEI via GLEIF. sources_used / sources_failed say which of these actually returned data for THIS company — an empty section is a real "no data", not a bug. Pass a ticker ("AAPL"), zero-padded CIK ("0000320193"), OR a company name ("Moderna") — names now resolve via SEC EDGAR's company-name match; a private company (no CIK/ticker) returns resolved:false with an explicit notes line, not a bare failure. type accepts "company" or "ticker" interchangeably — both take the same value shapes above.

A4.3/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

The description goes far beyond the readOnly/idempotent annotations by detailing fan-out across multiple sources (SEC, XBRL, USPTO, USAspending, Purple Book, DOL, GDELT/GNews, GLEIF), soft-fail behavior for the PatentsView API sunset, the semantics of sources_used/sources_failed, and the resolved:false path for private companies. It also clarifies that empty sections are real 'no data,' not bugs.

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

Conciseness3/5

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

The description is well organized with front-loaded purpose and a logical breakdown of return sections, but it is verbose: the opening user-phrasing examples and repeated mentions of 'ticker, CIK, or company name' are redundant and could be trimmed. It is still readable and information-dense.

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?

Because there is no output schema, the description carries the full burden of explaining return values. It enumerates every profile section, explains sources_used/sources_failed, notes empty-section expectations, describes the private-company path, and covers input format variations. For a complex multi-source aggregator, this is complete enough for an agent to invoke and interpret results correctly.

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 both parameters already have detailed descriptions. The tool description repeats the ticker/CIK/name forms and type interchangeability that are already in the schema, adding little new meaning about parameter semantics beyond restating what is structured.

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 identifies the tool as building a 'full cross-source profile of a US public company in ONE parallel call' and opens with concrete user intents like 'Tell me about X' and 'research Acme'. It distinguishes itself from chaining single-pack lookups and implicitly from siblings like compare_entities and deep_research by scoping to a single company profile aggregator.

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?

It explicitly instructs agents to 'ALWAYS PREFER over chaining single-pack SEC/XBRL/news lookups when the user asks for a holistic view,' giving a clear conditional. It also explains when a result is expected to be empty (e.g., FDA products for small-molecule-only companies) and how private companies are handled, though it does not name specific sibling tools as alternatives.

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

B3.4/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

The set is dominated by near-overlapping research tools: ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, ask_pipeworx_grounded, deep_research, and validate_claim all answer factual questions with heavily overlapping descriptions, and the six polymarket_* tools plus bet_research form a second confused cluster. The five confluence_* tools are distinct, but an agent would struggle to pick among the research/betting alternatives without reading thousands of words of caveats.

Naming Consistency2/5

Most names are snake_case, but the conventions are mixed: verb_noun (confluence_create_page, validate_claim), noun_verb (bet_research), prefixed nouns (polymarket_arbitrage, pipeworx_feedback), and bare verbs (recall, forget). The glaring issue is that the server is named Confluence yet only 5 of 36 tools carry the confluence_ prefix, leaving the other 31 tools with no thematic prefix and no consistent pattern.

Tool Count2/5

36 tools is already in the 'too many' range, but the mismatch is deeper: only 5 tools relate to Confluence while 31 tools cover an entirely different domain (Pipeworx data research, prediction markets, subscriptions). For a wiki server this is wildly over-scoped; as a combined surface it is bloated and lacks a unifying purpose.

Completeness2/5

For the Confluence domain the surface is incomplete: pages can be created, fetched, listed, and searched, but there is no update_page, delete_page, comment, attachment, or content-type coverage, leaving obvious CRUD dead ends. For the Pipeworx domain, coverage is broad but disorganized, with overlapping research paths and no clear hierarchy.
