"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.

A5/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations declare readOnlyHint, openWorldHint, idempotentHint, and destructiveHint=false. The description adds valuable behavioral context beyond annotations: fan-out to multiple sources (SEC, GDELT/GNews, USPTO), fallback behavior (GDELT→GNews on errors), patent source deprecation note, and return structure (changes grouped by source, total_changes count, citation URIs). No contradictions.

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?

The description is concise (3 sentences) while packing essential information. It is front-loaded with example queries, immediately clarifying the tool's purpose. No redundant or filler content; every sentence adds value.

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?

Given the absence of an output schema, the description adequately describes the return structure (changes grouped by source, total_changes count, citation URIs). It covers all aspects an agent needs: what data sources are queried, fallback behavior, parameter format, and alternative tool. Complete for a read-only information retrieval tool.

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% with descriptions for all three parameters. The description adds practical usage guidance: explains the since parameter accepts ISO dates or relative syntax with examples ('7d', '30d', '3m', '1y') and recommends '30d' or '1m' for monitoring. This enriches the 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?

The description uses specific verbs ('change feed', 'fans out') and clearly identifies the resource (company changes over time). It provides example queries ('What's new with X?') and explicitly distinguishes from sibling tool entity_profile ('Use entity_profile instead when you want the static profile').

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?

The description includes explicit when-to-use and when-not-to-use guidance: 'Use entity_profile instead when you want the static profile'. It also suggests typical window values ('Use "30d" or "1m" for typical monitoring'), helping the agent decide parameter values.

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

A4.1/5.0
Disambiguation3/5

Several tools have overlapping purposes, such as ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_grounded, and deep_research, which may confuse an agent about which to use for a given query. Additionally, the many prediction market tools (polymarket_arbitrage, polymarket_edges, etc.) have subtle distinctions that could lead to misselection.

Naming Consistency4/5

Tool names are predominantly lowercase with underscores and follow a descriptive pattern (e.g., compare_entities, resolve_entity, scan_dependency). There are minor deviations like bet_research vs. research-related tools, but the overall pattern is consistent.

Tool Count3/5

With 33 tools, the server covers many domains (data lookup, prediction markets, Montgomery County data, npm scanning, etc.), making it feel heavy. While each tool has a clear purpose, the broad scope borders on excessive for a single server.

Completeness3/5

The server provides a wide range of data access and analysis tools, but it lacks basic CRUD operations for its data sources (e.g., no way to create or update records in Montgomery County data or Pipeworx). Some domain coverage is incomplete (e.g., no tool for listing all Pipeworx tools, only discover_tools with top-N results).
