Recent Changes

recent_changes
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?

Description adds significant behavioral context beyond annotations: it fans out to multiple sources, details fallback logic, notes soft-failure for USPTO due to API sunset, and describes the return structure (changes[] grouped by source, total_changes, citation URIs). No contradictions 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 dense and front-loaded with example queries; every sentence adds value. Slightly more structured formatting could improve readability, but overall it is concise for the amount of information conveyed.

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 no output schema, the description adequately explains the return structure (changes grouped by source, total_changes, citation URIs). It covers multiple sources, fallback behavior, and soft-failure. It also references sibling tool entity_profile for alternative use cases, making it complete.

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?

Schema description coverage is 100%, and the description adds extra meaning: explains valid formats for 'since' (ISO date or relative shorthand), suggests default values, clarifies 'type' only supports 'company', and explains 'value' can be ticker or CIK. This adds value beyond 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 clearly states the tool returns a change feed for a company from multiple sources (SEC, GDELT/GNews, USPTO) in a single parallel call. It distinguishes from the sibling tool entity_profile, which is for static profiles, thereby providing strong purpose clarity.

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?

Includes explicit example queries, specifies when to use (change feed for a company within a window), and advises against using it for static profiles by directing to entity_profile. It also suggests typical monitoring windows like '30d' or '1m' and explains fallback behavior with GDELT/GNews.

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
Disambiguation2/5

Several tools have heavily overlapping or explicitly duplicate purposes: ask_pipeworx_beta is described as currently identical to ask_pipeworx, while ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_grounded, deep_research, and validate_claim all route natural-language queries to similar lookup pipelines. The Polymarket tools also blur together (bet_research, polymarket_edges, polymarket_arbitrage, polymarket_fill_risk), and scan_competitor_ai_presence is just a wrapper around ai_visibility_check.

Naming Consistency3/5

There are readable verb-led names like search_publications, get_project, resolve_entity, and validate_claim, but the set mixes conventions with noun-phrase names like entity_profile, recent_alerts, polymarket_edges, and pipeworx_trending. The lack of a single verb_noun pattern makes the surface feel inconsistent, though each family is internally recognizable.

Tool Count2/5

At 37 tools, this is well beyond the 25+ threshold where an agent starts paying significant selection and context cost. The broad domain could justify some breadth, but many tools are meta-wrappers or near-duplicates (ask_pipeworx_beta, compare_entities, entity_profile, deep_research) that inflate the count.

Completeness4/5

Within its main subdomains, the surface is fairly complete: OpenAIRE search has matching get_project/get_research_product retrieval, memory has remember/recall/forget, subscriptions have subscribe/unsubscribe/list/recent_alerts, and there are discovery/onboarding helpers like suggest_questions and discover_tools. Minor gaps exist (e.g., no direct generic Polymarket market quote tool, no memory update besides overwrite), but no major workflow is a dead end.
