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.

A4.7/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already mark it read-only and idempotent, and the description adds significant behavioral context: sources_used/sources_failed indicate actual data availability, empty sections are real 'no data' not bugs, the patent source soft-fails after its sunset, and private companies return resolved:false with notes. No contradiction 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.

Conciseness4/5

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

The description is long, but the tool is complex and almost every sentence carries operational detail. It is well front-loaded with purpose and usage, though it mildly repeats parameter-shape facts already present in the schema.

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 carries the full burden of explaining return values and does so thoroughly: each profile section, URI format, empty-section expectations, failure modes, and resolution behavior are described. An agent has enough context to call the tool and interpret results correctly.

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?

Although the schema already covers the two parameters, the description adds actionable semantics: value can be a ticker, zero-padded CIK, or company name; type values are interchangeable; names resolve via SEC EDGAR; and private companies produce a specific resolved:false outcome. This goes well beyond the schema in preventing misparameterization.

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?

States clearly that this returns a 'full cross-source profile of a US public company' in one parallel call, with concrete example queries like 'Tell me about X' and 'brief me on Tesla'. The 'ALWAYS PREFER over chaining single-pack SEC/XBRL/news lookups' line differentiates it from narrower lookup tools.

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?

Provides explicit usage triggers via example query phrasings and a clear preference rule for holistic-view requests. However, it does not contrast itself with broader sibling research tools like deep_research or compare_entities, so some alternative-selection guidance is missing.

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
Disambiguation4/5

Most tools have distinct purposes due to detailed descriptions. Some overlap exists, especially among research tools (ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_grounded, deep_research) and prediction market tools, but boundaries are clear enough for an agent to differentiate.

Naming Consistency4/5

The majority follow a consistent verb_noun pattern with underscores (e.g., get_cpi, list_subscriptions). A few deviations exist (e.g., forget, recall, pipeworx_feedback using a prefix), but overall the pattern is predictable.

Tool Count2/5

With 34 tools, the server exceeds the typical well-scoped range of 3-15 tools. While it covers many domains, the high number makes the set feel heavy and harder to navigate, warranting a score of 2 according to calibration.

Completeness4/5

The tool set is comprehensive for its broad scope, covering economic data, company research, prediction markets, and utilities. Minor gaps exist (e.g., missing explicit GDP or stock quote tools), but the powerful ask_pipeworx meta-tool fills many gaps.
