Read-onlyIdempotent

"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.

A4.9/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

The description goes beyond annotations by detailing the parallel data sources (SEC EDGAR, GDELT/GNews, USPTO), fallback logic, potential soft-fail, and output structure (changes grouped by source, total_changes count, citation URIs). This provides rich behavioral context.

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 front-loaded with example queries and structured to provide essential information efficiently. While it is somewhat verbose with multiple examples, 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?

Despite lacking an output schema, the description fully explains the return format. All parameters are documented, and the tool's behavior (sources, fallbacks, soft-fail) is thoroughly described. The reference to 'entity_profile' provides clear contextual distinction.

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?

With 100% schema description coverage, the description enhances parameter understanding: it explains the 'since' parameter with ISO date and relative shorthand examples, 'value' with ticker or CIK, and 'type' as only accepting 'company'. This adds meaningful usage context.

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 clearly states the tool's purpose: providing a change feed for a company in recent days/weeks/months via a single parallel call. It includes multiple example queries and explicitly distinguishes from the sibling tool 'entity_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 provides explicit guidance on when to use this tool (for recent changes) and when to use 'entity_profile' instead. It also details fallback behavior between GDELT and GNews, and notes the USPTO soft-fail condition.

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

Multiple tools overlap conceptually, e.g., ask_pipeworx / ask_pipeworx_beta / ask_pipeworx_grounded / deep_research all perform data retrieval, and bet_research / polymarket_edges / polymarket_arbitrage cover prediction markets with unclear boundaries. This overlap forces agents to carefully read descriptions to pick the right tool.

Naming Consistency3/5

Naming is mostly snake_case but inconsistent in pattern: some are verb_noun (compare_entities), some are noun_verb (ai_visibility_check), and some are bare nouns (ipv4) or bare verbs (forget). While readable, the lack of a uniform pattern reduces predictability.

Tool Count2/5

33 tools is high for a single server, especially given the server name 'Ipify' which implies a simple IP lookup service. The broad range (from memory ops to prediction market analysis) suggests the tool set is a collection of utilities rather than a coherent, scoped API.

Completeness2/5

The tool set lacks focus: for a server named 'Ipify', basic IP geolocation or ASN lookup is missing. As a general toolkit, it covers many areas superficially but has significant gaps (e.g., no tools for updating or deleting data, no domain-specific lifecycle).
