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 details the behavior beyond annotations: fans out to multiple sources (SEC EDGAR, GDELT→GNews, USPTO), explains fallback and rate-limiting, mentions a soft-fail for USPTO, and describes the return format. Annotations already indicate read-only and idempotent, but the description adds 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.

Conciseness5/5

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

The description is well-structured: front-loaded with example queries, then explains sources, parameters, return format, and alternative. Every sentence adds value; no redundancy or fluff.

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 tool's complexity (multiple data sources, fallback, no output schema), the description is highly complete. It covers sources, parameter formats, return structure, error handling, and provides an alternative tool. An agent can confidently select and invoke this tool.

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% (all 3 parameters described). The description adds value by providing examples for 'since' (ISO date or relative) and explaining 'value' can be ticker or CIK. It also clarifies that 'type' only supports 'company'. This goes beyond the schema's descriptions.

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 verb-resource: 'change feed for a company in the last N days/weeks/months'. It provides example queries that distinguish it from sibling tools like entity_profile, and explicitly mentions the alternative for static profiles.

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 explicitly states when to use this tool (recent changes with a time window) and when to use the alternative entity_profile (static profile). It also gives example queries and acceptable parameter formats.

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

A4/5.0
Disambiguation3/5

Several tools have overlapping purposes. ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, and ask_pipeworx_grounded all route to the same 5,564 tools, differing only in grounding behavior. suggest and lyrics both look up music but in different ways; suggest is broader while lyrics is exact. The core tools are distinct, but the multiple pipeworx variants and music tools create ambiguity.

Naming Consistency2/5

Naming is highly inconsistent. Most tools use snake_case (ask_pipeworx, entity_profile, compare_entities), but several use verb phrases (generate_llms_txt, scan_competitor_ai_presence) and some use short nouns (lyrics, suggest). There's no consistent verb_noun pattern; 'ask_pipeworx' variants mix imperative with domain words, and 'recall'/'remember' are verbs without objects.

Tool Count4/5

With 33 tools, the server covers a wide domain (company research, prediction markets, news, weather, lyrics, memory, subscriptions, etc.). While this is many tools, each has a specific purpose and the variety matches the stated 'universal router' / 'thousands of data sources' value prop. It could be trimmed slightly, but the count is justified by the breadth.

Completeness5/5

The tool surface is remarkably complete for its stated purpose: unstructured lookup (ask_pipeworx), grounded verification (ask_pipeworx_grounded), deep multi-source research (deep_research), entity profiles, comparisons, change feeds, arbitrage scanning, memory, subscriptions, and even feedback/governance tools. It covers all common patterns in data retrieval and has distinct tools for edge cases, making it hard to find obvious gaps.
