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?

Even with readOnlyHint/openWorldHint/idempotentHint already present, the description adds substantial behavioral detail: it fans out across specified sources, soft-fails on the USPTO endpoint, treats empty sections as genuine 'no data', and returns resolved:false with a notes line for private companies. There is 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 material is dense and almost every sentence carries distinct information about sources, return fields, failure modes, or invocation rules. It is front-loaded with purpose and preference. A short list of redundant example phrasings at the start is the only real redundancy.

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 there is no output schema, the description carries the full responsibility for explaining return shape, and it does so thoroughly: it lists cik/company_name, recent_filings, fundamentals, patents, federal_contracts, fda_products, hiring, news, LEI, and the sources_used/sources_failed fields. It also covers edge cases like private companies and software sunset behavior. Nothing essential is missing.

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 coverage is 100%, so the baseline is already strong. The description adds value by explicitly stating that type='company' and type='ticker' are interchangeable, that value may be a ticker, zero-padded CIK, or company name, and that names resolve via SEC EDGAR. This clarifies the enum semantics beyond the schema alone.

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 trigger phrasings and then states a precise job: 'full cross-source profile of a US public company in ONE parallel call.' It also names the exact resource class (US public company) and the output concept, distinguishing it from single-pack SEC/XBRL/news lookups. An agent can tell what this tool is for immediately.

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 gives an explicit preference rule: 'ALWAYS PREFER over chaining single-pack SEC/XBRL/news lookups when the user asks for a holistic view.' It also clarifies input forms and the private-company fallback behavior. It does not explicitly contrast itself with sibling tools like deep_research or compare_entities, but the 'US public company holistic profile' scope is a clear selection criterion.

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

A3.6/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

Several tools have heavily overlapping purposes: ask_pipeworx and ask_pipeworx_beta are explicitly identical, ask_pipeworx_grounded and deep_research blur the query/research boundary, and the polymarket_* family plus bet_research all target prediction-market analysis. An agent would frequently struggle to pick the correct tool among these near-duplicates.

Naming Consistency3/5

All names are snake_case, but the verb/noun style is inconsistent: get_* for flight lookups, ask_* for queries, noun-style names like entity_profile and bet_research, and the polymarket_* prefix group. Some subgroups are internally consistent, but there is no single predictable pattern across the set.

Tool Count2/5

36 tools is far too many for a server named 'flights' — only 5 tools actually relate to aviation, while the rest span prediction markets, SEC/FDA data, npm packages, memory, and feedback. Even viewed as a general data platform, the count is heavy and the scope is unfocused.

Completeness2/5

For a flights server, the surface is severely incomplete: no scheduled flight status, delays, cancellations, or airport schedules — only live ADS-B snapshots. For the broader data-research domain the tools imply, coverage is better but still scattered, with no coherent lifecycle and several one-off utilities that don't connect to the rest.
