Entity Profile

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.

A4.8/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Beyond the annotations (readOnly, openWorld, idempotent, non-destructive), the description reveals critical runtime behavior: parallel fan-out across many sources, soft-fail for USPTO PatentsView after sunset, GDELT→GNews fallback, expected empty fda_products for small-molecule-only companies, and the meaning of sources_used/sources_failed. This is exactly the kind of behavioral context annotations cannot express.

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?

The description is long, but every section covers a distinct source, caveat, or return field for a genuinely complex tool. It is front-loaded with examples and the ALWAYS PREFER directive, though the output-format details could be more scannable with bullets or shorter clauses.

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?

With no output schema, the description fully documents the return shape: cik, company_name, resolved_from/resolved_to, recent_filings URIs, fundamentals, patents, federal_contracts, fda_products, hiring, news, LEI, and sources_used/sources_failed. It also explains edge cases like empty sections and private-company results, so an agent can correctly interpret responses without guessing.

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?

The schema already documents both parameters at 100% coverage, so the baseline is 3. The description adds value with concrete examples for each accepted value shape, notes that 'company' and 'ticker' are interchangeable, and clarifies that private companies return resolved:false rather than failing. This exceeds the baseline but does not drastically expand on the schema.

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 opens with concrete user phrasings ('Tell me about X', 'research Acme', 'brief me on Tesla') and states the exact deliverable: a full cross-source profile of a US public company in one parallel call. It names the resource (company profile), the action (research/profile/brief), and distinguishes itself from single-pack SEC/XBRL/news lookups.

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?

It explicitly says 'ALWAYS PREFER over chaining single-pack SEC/XBRL/news lookups when the user asks for a holistic view', giving a clear when-to-use rule. It also specifies what to pass (ticker, CIK, or company name), how names resolve, and the expected behavior for private companies, which prevents misuse.

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

A3.7/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

Multiple tool clusters have overlapping functions: ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, and ask_pipeworx_grounded are nearly interchangeable, deep_research overlaps with the ask_pipeworx family, and the six Polymarket tools all analyze the same domain with subtle differences. discover_tools and suggest_questions also both serve as discovery entry points, making it difficult for an agent to confidently select the correct tool.

Naming Consistency3/5

All names are snake_case, but there is no uniform structural pattern. Verb_object names like format_currency and resolve_entity coexist with noun_phrases like entity_profile and polymarket_arbitrage, bare verbs like remember and forget, and adjective_noun forms like recent_alerts. Cluster-specific prefixes are consistent, but the overall convention is mixed.

Tool Count2/5

With 33 tools, the set is substantially over-scoped and exceeds the suggested 3-15 range. Many tools could be consolidated, such as the three ask_pipeworx variants, the six Polymarket tools, and the two formatting utilities. The broad domain justifies some size, but the count feels inflated and will burden agents with excessive choice.

Completeness3/5

The server covers many areas thoroughly: memory has remember/recall/forget, subscriptions have subscribe/unsubscribe/list/recent_alerts, and research tools span lookup, profiling, comparison, and verification. However, there are notable gaps: pipeworx:// citation URIs are returned but no tool explicitly fetches or reads a record by URI, and there is no direct way to manage account-level settings beyond memory. These missing operations force agents to work around limitations.
