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.

A4.6/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, openWorldHint, idempotentHint, and destructiveHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds valuable behavior beyond annotations: parallel fan-out across SEC EDGAR, XBRL, USPTO, USAspending, and more; USPTO PatentsView soft-fail after sunset; empty fda_products as expected behavior; empty sections as 'real no data, not a bug'; and private companies returning resolved:false with explicit notes.

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 the tool is complex and the length is mostly justified by critical behavioral details. It is front-loaded with trigger phrases and the core promise, then systematically enumerates output fields and failure semantics. Some redundancy exists (e.g., repeating 'full cross-source profile' and restating schema-level interchangeability), but overall each sentence earns its place.

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?

There is no output schema, so the description must carry the burden of explaining return values. It thoroughly enumerates all top-level response fields (cik, recent_filings, fundamentals, patents, federal_contracts, fda_products, hiring, news, LEI, sources_used/sources_failed) and explains expected empty results and soft-fail behavior. This is complete enough for an agent to invoke the tool correctly and interpret its response.

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%, so the baseline is 3. The description adds meaning beyond the schema by giving concrete examples ('AAPL', '0000320193', 'Moderna'), clarifying that type='company' and type='ticker' behave identically, emphasizing CIK must be zero-padded, and explaining that name resolution happens via SEC EDGAR's company-name match. This enriches but does not heavily extend 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', 'company profile for Microsoft') and states it produces a 'full cross-source profile of a US public company in ONE parallel call.' This clearly identifies the tool's specific verb+resource and distinguishes it from broader siblings like deep_research or compare_entities by focusing on a single entity with cross-source fan-out.

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?

The description explicitly says 'ALWAYS PREFER over chaining single-pack SEC/XBRL/news lookups when the user asks for a holistic view,' which is a clear condition with an identified alternative. However, it does not address when to prefer siblings like deep_research or compare_entities, nor does it give an explicit when-not-to-use beyond the implied 'person/place coming soon' limitation.

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
Disambiguation4/5

Most tools have distinct purposes, but there is some overlap between ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_grounded, deep_research, and similar data query tools. However, detailed descriptions help agents differentiate.

Naming Consistency4/5

Names consistently use snake_case and a mix of verb_noun and noun_verb patterns. No camelCase is present, but some tools like 'generate_llms_txt' have embedded acronyms, which slightly reduces consistency.

Tool Count3/5

33 tools is high, but the server covers a wide range of functionalities (data lookups, prediction markets, RSS feeds, memory). Some tools could be combined, but the count is within reasonable limits for a comprehensive tool server.

Completeness4/5

The tool set covers major areas like entity lookups, prediction market analysis, data retrieval, and memory management. Minor gaps exist (e.g., no RSS feed deletion tool), but overall it is quite comprehensive.
